Within the building, the more ‘public ’ teaching areas are separated from the research space by a three-storey ‘street’ with connecting galleries and bridges for informal circulation and meetings. internal photo from rmjm British Construction Industry Award 2002 William Gates Building : RIBA Award 2002 Judges comment: “The activities of the Computer Faculty are clearly demonstrated through the careful organisation of the building to create a complex conceived with simplicity and underplayed grandeur...The brief called for a building sensitive to its energy use and sustainability, and it has achieved this.” The Computer Laboratory is the first building completed in the West Cambridge Master Plan, west of Clerk Maxwell Road.
