William Stone Building, Grade II listed residential building at Peterhouse, Cambridge, England

The William Stone Building rises eight stories high, constructed with buff brick and copper cladding, featuring horizontal strip windows and a rectangular staircase tower.

The structure, completed in 1963, emerged from a bequest by William Stone, a Peterhouse alumnus who lived from 1857 to 1958.

Architects Leslie Martin and Colin St John Wilson incorporated design elements influenced by Le Corbusier's concept of vertical living from the 1920s.

The building contains twenty-four student rooms with en-suite facilities, ten faculty accommodations, and includes storage spaces available during vacation periods.

Solar panels were installed during the 2007-2008 renovation, making it the first tower-style student residence at Cambridge to implement sustainable energy solutions.
