Bennetts Associates' award-winning Potterrow development has created an innovative learning environment for Edinburgh University, transforming the site previously used as a car park into a state of the art School of Informatics and School of Philosophy, Psychology and Language Sciences, as well as the University Visitor Centre and an exhibition space. Creating a communal, vibrant working environment that stimulates academic research was integral to Bennetts' design process. The 16.000 m2 scheme, set within the university's major new masterplan for the George Square, responds to the latest developments in educational research, creating areas that aid formal and informal interaction, which has been found to significantly improve the quality of research. The floorplates have been laid out to ensure that users circulate around the building, engaging with a range of spaces and people.
