Purpose Built Student Accommodation

Purpose-built student accommodation is one of the most competitive sectors in the market. With over 20 years’ experience working in student accommodation, we design and deliver PBSA schemes that stand out from the crowd and compete directly with new-build developments.

We work closely with developers, operators and investors to transform spaces and create high-performing student environments across the UK and Ireland. Our experience spans new-build projects, refurbishments and asset repositioning for leading PBSA brands including Homes for Students, Student Castle, Mezzino, HOST Students and Aparto.

Our work is underpinned by real operational knowledge through our wider group businesses. Ametros Facilities Management delivers planned maintenance, summer refresh programmes and ongoing facilities services across student accommodation nationwide, giving us a deep understanding of durability, lifecycle costs and long-term asset performance.

We design thoughtfully considered amenity spaces that elevate the student experience while supporting wellbeing, community and long-term operational efficiency. Our schemes regularly include luxury cinema rooms, co-working areas, social lounges, gyms and breakout spaces, carefully planned to encourage interaction while protecting individual privacy.

Our insight extends beyond design through The Student Shed, which supplies fully equipped student packs including bedding and kitchen essentials, cleaning consumables, furniture and essential items used across accommodation portfolios. These packs support annual summer refresh programmes, where properties are cleaned, redecorated and prepared for new intakes.

Working alongside Ametros, The Student Shed holds contracts with major universities and student accommodation providers across the UK and Ireland, ensuring our designs are not only visually impactful but practical, maintainable and ready for repeated occupation year after year.

What people say about us

    Lasalle Investment Management instructed inspired projects to undertake a full refurbishment of the common areas to its student accommodation scheme in Bristol. From initial consultations through to practical completion inspired projects met our requirement to elevate the scheme to be one of the best student offerings in the city. They were very professional and open at all times through regular communication and meeting client needs in terms of budgeted costs and timelines. The on-site staff at the property praised the expertise of the team and their consideration for the students also. Inspired projects ultimately delivered a project that exceeded client expectations in terms of design and was crucially completed on time and budget.

    Inspired projects have been our go to contractor for the design and fit-out of our amenity spaces for several years. During that time, they have completed numerous projects, through both refurbishments of existing buildings and fitout of new buildings. They are a great team to work with and consistently deliver projects to a high standard that add real value to our portfolio.
