Studios and resources

Our Architecture studios mirror industry, with students working together in a high-energy environment. You’ll share your experiences with others in a supportive environment and have access to 3D workshops with manual and digital manufacturing equipment.

You’ll also use our purpose-built Drawing Studio. This striking building was designed and completed by renowned architect and AUB alumnus, Professor Sir Peter Cook RA, and his office, CRAB – it’s the first to be built at an art school for more than a century. We also captured time-lapse footage of the Drawing Studio from inception to completion across several months in 2015.
