A 21st century training establishment to meet the aspirations of the UK’s naval reservist forces for the next 50 years.
The new building provides state-of-the-art training and classroom suites, accommodation, and administrative services as well as social and fitness facilities, with access to the waterfront and docking facilities for visiting warships.
An innovative approach to the design of the building was required to create a strong image that reflected the 'brand' of the Royal Navy, with its unique combination of land, air and sea capabilities, and a proud heritage that demands a strong identity to project into the future.
