WBA helping the Huddersfield Christmas Cheer

GB Building Solutions are approaching the end of the construction programme for the Learning and Leisure Centre at the University of Huddersfield. The handover of this BREEAM Excellent building is due in January 2014. This unique project designed by Watson Batty features an eye catching sports hall which is clad in metal mesh and illuminated with coloured LED lighting. The lights will add to the towns festive illuminations with the big switch on happening today, the 13th December. The Captain of the Huddersfield Giants will be flicking the switch and will see the building illuminated in the Giant’s team colours.

The hall's LED lighting can be programmed in an infinite number of colours and cycles so the building may never look the same twice!

The £22.5m project, which is one of the most complex that the education team has undertaken, on a very challenging site, will become the new heart of the University campus.
