Bailey Fields – High-end student accommodation
S
heffield is a noted centre of academic study, being home to the University of Sheffield, the University of Sheffield International College and Sheffield Hallam University. With a combined student population of over 65,000 there is much demand for high quality student accommodation.
Ideally situated, Bailey
Fields student accommodation is located on the doorstep of Sheffield town centre and is just a short walk away from the University of Sheffield, Sheffield Hallam University City Campus, and just a bus journey away from the Collegiate campus.
Bailey Fields was designed by architects Kelsey Design
Associates, on behalf of
building owners and developers Watkin Jones. Their brief was to design class leading student accommodation, that would promote
learning as well as provide a social experience with
communal facilities for
leisure,
relaxation, and wellbeing. With the building required to be sympathetic to its local surroundings but also to be constructed without compromise with regards to fire safety, Kelsey Design Associates specified approximately 1,320 m2 of ALUCOBOND®
A2, which is characterised
by its non-combustible properties that meets all strict fire regulations. ALUCOBOND®
because it also includes an environmental product
A2 was specified declaration (EPD) according to
international ISO standards. This provides an independently verified life cycle assessment (LCA), as well as BREEAM contribution – proof of its sustainable credentials. In addition,
the ALUCOBOND® A2
composite panels are distinguished by their outstanding product attributes, such as precise flatness, variety of surfaces and colours, as well as excellent formability, making them the ideal choice for this project. The panel’s weather resistance and colour fast properties ensure the building’s appearance will be maintained over its entire lifetime too. The ALUCOBOND®
A2 panels were
fabricated and installed by leading building envelope provider Precision Facades and finished in anodized look C0/EV1 and 500 Silver Metallic, which together present an attractive and welcoming presence that has received local praise. The building, which was completed in
2018, stands as one of the most attractive and desirable student residents, with waiting lists for many of its apartment styles.
