Designs and architecture

The new Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus (TQEC) will provide an exceptional environment for learning, research and innovation.

It will be a porous campus, welcoming people and encouraging movement through. It sits between the historic Bristol Temple Meads Station and the floating harbour. Enhanced walking and cycling routes will improve connectivity in the area.
