Posted by: Simon on: 16th April, 2008.
Just come through, BDP have been chosen as the official masterplanners for Birmingham City University’s Eastside campus, which will be home the the Birmingham Institute of Art and Design (BIAD) and the Conservatoire.
More information later, however here are the outline designs:
Height ranging from 5-8 floors.
Thank you Biosonic for the quick scoop.

Andy, the Conservatoire also. They will be moving from the current Paradise Circus campus.

Tilly, Millennium Point is in the top right of the second image. The viaduct is in brown.

The Conservatoire will be part of a new faculty also comprising School of Acting and Media. So also located in this new building will be the Media provision currently at Perry Barr. Acting I presume will continue to use the space it has at Millennium Point. Or at least that’s the plan I think.

Hopefully it will be good for all the media and music courses.
There’s currently similar courses at the TIC’s Interactive Media and BIAD’s Media Department that seem to run totally independent to each other (half my Sound Engineering degree is media industry and media communications), and degrees that cross between the TIC and Conservatoire (such as Music Technology) could all mean we can share bigger, better and more resources. Yipee!

Strange timing on that article, the land was swapped for the current Paradise Circus a couple of years ago.
