Redwood Building, University building in Cathays Park, Cardiff, United Kingdom

The Redwood Building features a rectangular three-story block with modernist architecture and stands along King Edward VII Avenue at Cardiff University.

Constructed in 1960 for the Welsh College of Advanced Technology, the building later became part of Cardiff University through institutional mergers.

The building displays a large relief sculpture by Edward Bainbridge Copnall showing a toga-clad man with a globe protecting a scientist and nurse.

The building contains twenty-two bicycle parking spaces outside and provides multiple flexible learning environments with mobile furniture for various educational activities.

Named after the Redwood family from Boverton, particularly honoring Theophilus Redwood who established the Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain.
