The Investcorp Building celebrates 5 years

The Investcorp Building of Oxford University’s Middle East Centre at St Antony’s College opened 5 years ago this week.

Integrating new academic, research and archive facilities within a design defined by the existing built and natural environment of the college, the Investcorp Building was awarded by the Oxford Preservation Trust and received a 2016 RIBA National Award.

“This is a project that demonstrates great virtuosity and a huge amount of technical skill… a superb building which will stand the test of time,” explained the RIBA jury.

“An exquisite little gem… one of the most beautifully crafted buildings I have encountered for a long time,” detailed the RIBA Journal at its opening.
