Text description provided by the architects. Brooklands is a new workplace campus in central Cambridge, containing the city’s first major Net Zero Carbon* office building. It fills a gap in the Cambridge workspace market, meeting tenant expectations for high-quality space while at the same time offering sustainable, characterful buildings that contribute to the city. 6,000 sqm of flexible workspace is arranged across two buildings (B1 and B2) around a courtyard garden, linked by a colonnade. Brooklands aligns closely with the government’s strategic growth agenda for Cambridge and its ambition to boost the knowledge economy. Growth in Cambridge is not limited to expanding the city’s fringes; it also involves optimizing existing urban areas and bringing underused sites to life in a sustainable and sensitive way.
