I&G has completed the refurbishment of the Reading Room in the Health Sciences Library at the University of Leeds, transforming a group work area into a vibrant, inclusive learning environment designed with students at its heart.

Procured via the Procure Partnerships Framework
Located within the Worsley Building, the Health Sciences Library refurbishment formed part of a broader University of Leeds initiative to revitalise key learning spaces across campus. Students were consulted throughout the design process, with their ideas shaping the final environment.
The full project was delivered directly adjacent to a live library, requiring I&G to work with minimum disruption to students and staff at all times.
A welcoming space that champions wellbeing
The completed library blends individual-focused study zones with open collaborative spaces, all connected by natural materials, warm lighting, and thoughtful acoustic design. New skylights flood the previously dark reading room with natural light, while moss walls and organic textures create a calm, restorative environment.
Improved wheelchair access to the mezzanine level ensures the space is genuinely inclusive, and the flexible IT suite is designed to evolve with how students work now and in the future.
