Built by H. Baker in 1929, Rhodes House is the historic headquarters of the Rhodes Trust, an educational charity which oversees the world-renowned Rhodes Scholarships at the University of Oxford. By refurbishing and extending this Grade II* listed building, the scheme ensures that Rhodes House remains a magical part of Oxford's architecture, whilst enabling it to operate effectively and sustainably in support of the Trust's mission to expand its global scholarship program. This transformation required significant interventions and major structural alterations to open up the existing building.
