Creating a unique character for the site that
results in a unified sense of place.
Kampus
Manchester
Kampus is a vibrant urban quarter in Manchester city centre near Piccadilly Station, featuring approximately 350 PRS units and ground/first floor commercial spaces. This exemplary landscape architecture project has become embedded in the city’s cultural fabric, rediscovering a forgotten area as a home for creatives and independents. Working within the Aytoun Street Strategic Regeneration Framework, the landscape design creates a distinctive character through thoughtfully designed public realm. Landscaped entrances lead visitors through verdant, immersive spaces between buildings to discover a unique ‘secret garden’, the perfect backdrop for morning, afternoon and evening social events.
