The Life and Mind Building (LaMB) has reached practical completion and has been transferred to the University for final fit-out.

Later this year, it will officially become home to two University of Oxford Departments, the Department of Biology and Experimental Psychology, helping leading scientists to address some of our major global challenges.

LaMB, a building dedicated to education, includes science and lab space, offices, lecture theatres, study areas and a café.

Designed by NBBJ Design and delivered by contractor Wates Group, this project was managed by one of our JV owners L&G. The Life and Mind Building will bring together the Departments of Biology and Experimental Psychology under one roof to advance scientific discovery and education.

Following it’s nomination earlier in the year, The Life and Mind Building won Project of the Year at OxPropAwards25.
