The student accommodation at the University of Essex exemplifies a thoughtful approach to campus architecture, with facades adorned in Swisspearl Patina Original NXT panels in the shades P020 and P050. The use of these colours provides a dynamic yet cohesive visual appeal across the buildings.

The large-format panels are meticulously fixed with colour-matching rivets, ensuring a seamless integration of materials. The design balances functionality with aesthetics, creating a welcoming environment for students while enhancing the overall landscape of the campus. The buildings are arranged to foster community interaction while offering private, serene spaces for study and relaxation purposes.
