In a seamless fusion of historical preservation and contemporary innovation, OHMG delivered a striking student accommodation development located near the heart of Belfast. This architectural achievement harmoniously combines the character of the city’s Victorian heritage with the demands of modern living, resulting in a residence that elegantly bridges past and present.

Diverse and Inclusive Living Spaces

The accommodation provides a total of 247 en-suite bedrooms and 93 self-contained studio apartments, designed to meet the diverse needs and preferences of students. This thoughtful mix of private and shared living options promotes flexibility and inclusivity, enhancing the student experience within a vibrant urban setting.

Preserving History Through Innovation

OHMG’s approach extended beyond conventional construction practices, utilising advanced construction support systems to integrate the original Victorian façade seamlessly into the new structure. This complex process enabled the preservation of the historic exterior, while the new building — complete with internal facilities and external works — was meticulously constructed floor by floor with precision and care.

A Testament to Architectural Continuity and Craftsmanship

The completed development stands as a symbol of architectural continuity, offering students the comfort and efficiency of a modern residence within a heritage setting. Delivered with OHMG’s trademark expertise and attention to detail, the project exemplifies the company’s ability to respect architectural legacy while creating contemporary spaces that enrich Belfast’s urban fabric.
