QMU School of Mathematical Sciences
Retrofit and New Build faculty Building for the Mathematical Sciences department.
The refurbishment and extension of the Queen Mary School of Mathematical Sciences – a 1960s brutalist building on Mile End Road London. Part of the University of London, Queen Mary is one of the UK’s leading research-focused higher education institutions. The University of London is a wide-ranging body comprising some 40 academic institutions and 120,000 students - making it the largest and most diverse university in the country.
The aim for the School of Mathematical Sciences is for the building to be Passivhaus certified, or EnerPHit. This will achieve up to an 80% reduction in energy use, as well as improving indoor air quality and reducing overheating

The Approach
Deploi supported Cullinan Studio with an extended presence embedded with the team. Following training and instruction in the use of the custom Revit template Deploi provided planning and strategic guidance. Deploi built the initial model, provided on the job coaching to team members and modelled all the challenging geometry to allow the team to progress on programme.
Due to the resultant composition of a new build addition, the re-cladding of the existing building and the glazed atrium between them the scheme essentially included three complete cladding systems. The re-clad employed thousands of terracotta baguettes in a rainscreen arrangement while the new build proposals called for curtain walling and the atrium was finished in structural glazing.
