What’s genuinely exciting is giving our customers the opportunity to shape their new buildings.

When You Start Well, You Live Better

Oxford North is designed for making breakthroughs.

And that’s as much about people’s wellbeing as it is buildings.  So you’ll find plenty of open spaces, public art and culture connecting and enhancing the local area and city.

All the essential elements for improving the air quality and environment while also delivering a healthier economy.

Globally ambitious yet locally focussed, we’re here for tomorrow’s workforce. We’re not just creating a space: we’re building a catalyst.

The first development phase will create 170,000 sq ft (15,793 sq m) of laboratory and technical office space in three buildings, along with the first phase of the new public park and places to eat and drink.

Both a unique home and workplace for scientists, technologists and inventors

Building 1 & 2

High Specification Lab Space for Low Carbon Occupying

Two laboratory workspace buildings totalling 110,000 sq ft (10,218 sq m) are being built for science and technology companies to flourish and make their mark on the world.

From SMEs looking to expand to global brands keen to thrive within Oxford’s commercial ecosystem, each building will provide 55,000 sq ft (5,109 sq m) over four floors and offer the ideal space to develop ideas, collaborate, innovate and invest.

Targeting appropriate benchmarks and ratings including BREEAM Excellent, and alignment with WELL Building Standard, these buildings will be heated and cooled using 100% low carbon technology.

Construction is starting in Summer 2023 and targeting practical completion in Q1 2025.
