Grimshaw is transforming its adaptable 1970s Herman Miller factory, designed by its founder Nicholas Grimshaw, into the Locksbrook Campus for Bath Spa University.
The heritage listed building on the River Avon in Bath, is being adapted and extended to contain a mix of teaching facilities and social spaces.
Due for completion in September, Grimshaw is aiming to "retain and build upon the original buildings' principles of adaptation", in its renovation of the Locksbrook Campus.

"With the original factory design, Nick (Grimshaw) established the idea of the 'indeterminate building', which can adapt to change," explained principal Ben Heath.
"This is a principal that remains part of the practices DNA today ? adaptive reuse is a recurring theme within our projects," he told Dezeen. "Over 40 years later, with the original building transforming to accommodate an entirely new user, it feels like the ultimate proof of concept and also a great model for the future of architecture."

Formerly known as the Action Factory, the Herman Miller Factory is an industrial facility built in 1976 by Grimshaw for the American furniture company Herman Miller.
The building is known for its gridded structure and completely demountable cladding system of fibreglass, louvres and glazing, designed to enable its occupants to freely rearrange the position of window and facade panels.
As part of its overhaul, these iconic wall panels are being be cleaned, restored...
