The Client

Elements Europe manufactured and installed 356 student Room Pods for Uni Living Construction to provide high quality, affordable student accommodation in York.

Project Description: 356 Student Room Pods

Located on Hull Road between the University of York campus and the City Centre, rooms at the scheme will be rented out to both undergraduate and postgraduate students studying at the University.

Elements Europe manufactured and installed 356 en-suite student Room Pods, as well as common rooms, kitchens, studio apartments, a management suite and plant rooms to the five-storey building. Elements Europe also sourced and managed the modular pre-cast concrete lift shaft for the scheme.

The development was completed to BREEAM excellent standard. Ensuring that the buildings energy efficiency was of the highest priority, including; LED lighting, low water usage systems, as well as a combined heat and power system.

All of the modules were designed in a contemporary manner and developed according to the client’s specification. The flexibility of Elements Europe’s Room Pod system allowed the entire upper floor bedrooms to incorporate a mansard roof, a feature imposed on the client by local planning requirements.
