University of Kent

Keynes Extension (Residences)

The proposed development is sited on an area centrally located on the campus to the immediate west of Keynes College. This is currently used as a car park and informal sports and recreation field. The project includes accommodation for 495 undergraduate students with associated kitchen, laundry and management facilities. An extension of existing catering facilities at Dolche Vita is also proposed.

Please see the project page for further information.

School of Arts

The School of Arts is currently located in ten separate buildings on the campus and mainly in accommodation that is not appropriate for the function. The new building is intended to consolidate the school in a dedicated facility providing drama, art and film studios, teaching rooms, a post-graduate centre and academic and administrative offices. Visit the project page for further details.
