Lincoln Medical School’s ‘Most Sustainable Building on Campus’, lit by Zumtobel Group
Zumtobel Group, with its lighting brands Zumtobel, Thorn, and acdc has supplied a highly efficient new lighting solution to help meet the requirements of the University of Lincoln’s most sustainable building on campus and comply with tough carbon and energy reducing measures for the new Lincoln Medical School.
Working with BAM Construction and to a brief that included energy efficiency, aesthetics, and low maintenance, Zumtobel and Thorn have created a stylish installation with maximum performance for the building’s interior spaces using Zumtobel’s MIREL luminaires mounted on TECTON trunking, ONDARIA pendant luminaires, SLOTLIGHT infinity and Thorn’s IQ Wave and Chalice LED luminaires.
The Lincoln Medical School is located on the Brayford Pool campus of the University of Lincoln and is part-funded by Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership (GLLEP). The £25 million facility is the University’s most sustainable building with an accompanying EPC “A” rating. The building houses various laboratories such as a category 2 science laboratory, a clinical skills suite, and an anatomy suite. It also features lecture theatres, cutting-edge diagnostic tools, and a library.
To aid medical students’ learning, the
clinical to skills the suite latest with mock-up
consultation rooms (simulating hospital wards or a GP surgery) will give students access
technologies and
training methodologies so they can become the next wave of healthcare professionals. The building also provides students with a dedicated Bio-Medical and Health Sciences Library and social learning spaces. It is the most environmentally friendly building on the Brayford Pool campus and features photovoltaic panels on the roof and walls to provide zero-carbon electricity, a host of efficient hybrid heating and ventilation systems, and a living ‘green’ wall on the five-storey building. Designed to meet the BREEAM Excellent environmental standard, the photovoltaic panels have been installed to generate electricity to offset the energy used in the laboratories for example.
