Re-imagining Third Space

In 2020 ADP developed a new post-Covid space concept called Third Space – a space that supports active learning, hybrid working, and fosters social connections across university campuses.

This year our national and regional higher education directors; Jon Roylance and Amy Brazenall, have been evolving our Third Space concept, reflecting feedback from students. Our concept is now more inclusive and embraces new technology to capture student’s experience, needs, preferences, and wellbeing.

As part of the London Festival of Architecture, we had the privilege of hosting “A Place to Belong: Designing an Inclusive Third Space” at the University of Westminster – an expert panel event to discuss the nature of Third Space, exploring our concept and the future of inclusive design with the panellists.
