Project Alert
Stone Cladding Systems are again very pleased to be part of the construction of a purpose-built student accommodation development, new Vita Student residence in Edinburgh’s Old Town which is currently part of the £240M New Waverley regeneration project in the heart of Edinburgh’s UNESCO World Heritage site.
CDA are the architects and have been involved in the project since the masterplan was consented in 2007. This development comprises mixed‐use including, affordable housing,student accommodation and commercial /community uses.
The Vita Student project provides 289 beds and is a mix of cluster beds and studios, with extensive communal amenity. How the building integrates into the surrounding area is paramount and Peakmoor has once again been chosen to blend in with the surrounding buildings given the sensitivity of the site sitting within Edinburgh’s Old Town.
McAleer & Rushe are the developers with Mason Facades being the installers of our Aztec Peakmoor Rainscreen.
