Lasdun Building refurbishment
Summer 2008
Originally founded in 1437 as 'God's House', this establishment was re-founded in 1505 as 'Christ's College' by Lady Margaret Beaufort, the mother of King Henry VII. Famous alumni of this college include John Milton and Charles Darwin, as well as many other eminent names and intellectual dynamos. Find out more about Christ's College
The Lasdun Building houses the college's two main conference rooms, and in 2008 it was refurbished to a very high standard. Cambridge Audio-Visual was trusted with specifying and installing the equipment into this historic venue.
The main 120 seater auditorium is not only going to be used as a conference room and a lecture theatre but also as a cinema. With that in mind, the audience has the pleasure of a 5m wide projection screen, a 5,500 lumen Christie multimedia projector and a state-of the art Dolby surround sound audio system. The whole room is controlled by a Crestron room control system that in part operates via the college LAN.
