Cambridge building designs

Cambridge architecture designs and architects

Find new Cambridge architecture projects with building news and architectural images. We feature Cambridgeshire properties from across this city in South East England, UK.

Famous architects with buildings in the city include Sir Christopher Wren, Norman Foster and James Stirling. Some key historic figures include William Wilkins, George Basevi, Leslie Martin, Powell & Moya, and Gillespie Kidd & Coia.

Major structures to visit include the Schlumberger Research Center by Michael Hopkins and Partners, west of the city, and the more recently-completed Magdalene College Library by Niall McLaughlin.

The Sainsbury Laboratory designed by Stanton Williams was a 2012 RIBA Stirling Prize Winner, and well worth a visit.

This prosperous English university city is located around an hour’s drive north from London. It is often paired with Oxford, home to another famous English university.
