Accoya

London-based architectural practice, WilkinsonEyre, has created an undergraduate village for the Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology. The landscaped village of timber modular-housing pods, with communal amenities and a central social and learning hub, is based within the Dyson, Malmesbury campus in Wiltshire. As well as establishing a new style of student accommodation, the project breaks ground in design, master planning and precision engineering of truly modular prefabricated building technologies for rapid construction.

Accoya® & Tricoya® ExDF were chosen as the perfect substrates for the windows & doors of Australian Designer Zimmermann in Paddington. Accoya & Tricoya were selected for their stability & durability. With temperatures in Sydney reaching above 40 degrees, Celsius black coating was selected as it will not only last longer but less maintenance is required too. Accoya windows & doors are durable, stable & shrink & swell less than any other woods ensuring they continue to open & close freely all year round.
