SureSet materials are incorporated in many areas of hard landscaping at Northumbria University.
In addition to the new City Campus East development, the project also incorporates a new bridge crossing the central motorway, which allows access to students and local communities.
A striking aspect of its design is the utilisation of SureSet to create the words Northumbria University within the footpath. To achieve the desired result, SureSet prepared laser-cut MDF with metal edging to create the characters.
The third element making use of SureSet was a landscape make-over for Ellison Courtyard, an area within the original City Campus.
The courtyard forms part of the walkway linking existing buildings to the new footbridge and continuing on to City Campus East. Here, two mixes were blended together from each end to give a 50/50 mix at its central point.
To quote the University, the new Ellison Courtyard provides a high quality oasis within the heart of City Campus to be enjoyed by the entire University, community, visitors and others alike.
