Summary
Stand-out student accommodation for Aberdeen
Robertson Eastern has delivered a 173-bed studio student accommodation scheme at Causewayend in Aberdeen.
Each studio unit is self-contained with its own fully equipped compact kitchenette, en-suite WC/shower room, bed and study area. The highly sustainable design includes a glazed central light well that enhances the communal ground floor spaces including social break out areas, reception, and FM office.
The project, situated on Spademill Lane, was undertaken by Robertson Eastern for student developer Visage Properties with Hardies Property and Construction Consultants fulfilling the role of Project Manager and Employer's Agent. Robertson Specialist Division, our roofing and render business, provided external insulation finished with acrylic render.
