Explore your 'Day in the Life'

As a Design student you’ll be able to access some fantastic facilities, including the Design Fabrication Labs within the Lockwood Building. It’s somewhere you’ll have timetabled teaching to develop materiality and making within your design practice, but you’ll also be able to use the labs and equipment during open-access hours to make, build and experiment with the support of skilled and dedicated tutors. Discover some of the spaces in more detail and get a feel for a typical day as a Design student. Please note, access to specific facilities will be dependent on your particular programme/module choices.

If you can’t function properly without a morning coffee or tea, then Thirty Five is a great pit stop. Based in the heart of the Richard Hoggart Building, it’s somewhere you can arrange to meet friends or watch the world go by before your day of study and exploration begins. Keep a look out for the Goldsmiths-inspired mural on one of the walls.

College Green

College Green

Right next to the Lockwood Building is the tranquil College Green. On a sunny day it’s a great spot to laze on the grass, take a break with friends, and have lunch. From here you can also take in the full expanse of the Goldsmiths campus – from the traditional Richard Hoggart Building to the industrial-looking Ben Pimlott Building (complete with sculptural ‘scribble’).
