Peckham Road

Peckham Road (PR) was the first building CCI occupied, we're spread across the 4th and 5th floors of the new B block at this site which opened in 2016. This complex of 4 blocks (A, B, C, D) is shared with Camberwell College of Arts who've been located here since 1898.

Reception

At the Reception, you can recieve information, LGBTQ+ pride badges, and directions to spaces.

The Security team can be found at the reception. You can identify them by their t-shirts jumpers. If you have an accident, feel unsafe or need safety support, go to the security team and they will be able to help.

Art Shop

The art shop offers loads of affordable art supplies. You can ask the art shop staff about what materials are best to use for your projects and where to get materials that aren’t currently available in the art shop. You can also buy UAL merch here! It is worth noting that they don't accept cash, so you can only pay with a credit or debit card.

Learning Zone

The Learning Zone is part of the library and is open to all UAL students. This is the same with all UAL libraries. It is open 24/7 and they have lockers for laptops where you can swipe you card and loan a library laptop.

Other facilities that will usually be available here are photography and scanning, sewing machines etc.

It is a great place to work if you’re a night owl!

The Student Centre can be found in A block, 1st floor. This is a walk in help desk where you can ask questions and get advice, there is also a quiet room which can be used as a place for quiet reflection, worship, rest, breast feeding and other health needs.

Library

We have an amazing library supported by a dedicated librarian (Benelia), who oversees the subject area of Creative Computing, ensuring the library stays up to date with the books, periodicals, databases and other resources you need to complete your studies. You can contact Benelia via Slack and email.

The library has books, journals, publications, copying resources for printing, cutting, stapling etc. Specific paper is available for dyslexic students to print on.

There are lots of workspaces and computers which can be booked.

Special collections can be accessed through the library resources page on the website. Here there are lots of older items.

Kitchen

Our Kitchen is a communal space as well as a learning space: at lunchtime it becomes the social hub of CCI folks to share lunch together, and during classes, it’s a quiet working space. We have fridges, a dishwasher, cutlery and lots of nice plants. There are also pods which can be used when they are not booked for tutorials as a quiet space to work.
