Located just beyond the historic city walls, the site is situated in the Layerthorpe area. Layerthorpe is renowned for playing a crucial role in the city’s industrial revolution, and it is this rich industrial heritage that serves as the primary inspiration for the architectural concept, influencing the form and appearance of the building.
