WARMER AND QUIETER OFFICES
FOR THE MASTER AND STAFF
74 Trumpington Street has been upgraded with curved
on plan and standard secondary glazing to create quieter
and warmer office environments, in line with the College’s
overall sustainability plan. In an effort to keep attracting the
best scholarly minds and providing the best environments
to nurture their excellence, a vision for enhanced learning
spaces on the South Side of Mill Lane has been created. One
of which is the Grade II Listed Kenmare House designed
and built by James Essex c.1760, a prolific constructor in
Cambridge, with many of his buildings now making up the
University’s Estate.
Pleasance Hookham and Nix put the architectural plans
together of how the buildings would be reconfigured, to house
the Master, Finance, Human Resources and International
Programmes Teams and Fellows accommodation. Due to its
Listing, the original single pane windows had to be retained,
so a solution to combat the noise ingress and thermal
inefficiencies had to be sought. Selectaglaze was contacted
early in the design process, which made the incorporation of
the secondary glazing far more efficient.
Over 60 units were installed throughout the buildings. On the
front elevation, where noise ingress was a larger concern, the
secondary glazing was installed with a larger cavity, to create
the sound insulation. On the rear of the building the glazing
was mainly for thermal and one intricately etched large
window overlooking a flat roof, had a large Secured by Design
unit installed for added security.
