WOLFSON BUILDING EXTENSION COMPLETE

JANUARY 2013

The extension and refurbishment of the Wolfson Building in Oxford is now complete. The Grade II Listed building, originally designed by Arup Associates in the 1960s, forms part of Somerville College in Oxford. The extension provides the college with additional gathering space in the hall on the ground floor and gives the building a clearer presence on the College’s main quadrangle.
