In a seamless fusion of historical preservation and contemporary innovation, OHMG undertook the creation of a student accommodation site in close proximity to the heart of Belfast. This architectural endeavour, masterfully executed by OHMG, harmoniously blends the charm of the past with the functionality of the present, resulting in a distinctive residence that marries the old with the new.

The accommodation site, conceived and delivered by OHMG, boasts a total of 247 en-suite bedrooms and 93 self-contained studio apartments. The deliberate combination of these residential spaces caters to the diverse needs and preferences of students, providing a holistic living experience in a vibrant urban setting.

OHMG’s approach extended beyond traditional construction methods, employing cutting-edge construction support systems to seamlessly integrate the original Victorian visage into the new building. This meticulous process allowed for the preservation of the historical façade while the new structure, along with its associated facilities and external works, was erected with precision and care, floor by floor.

The result is a testament to OHMG’s commitment to preserving architectural heritage while meeting contemporary demands. The site stands as a unique blend of past and present, where students can experience the comfort of modern amenities within the embrace of a historically significant exterior. Delivered with expertise by OHMG, this student accommodation site represents a successful marriage of architectural continuity and contemporary functionality, enriching the urban landscape of Belfast.
