Sir - Zaha Hadid's proposed design for the much-needed extension to the Middle East Centre in the grounds of St Antony's College is a dynamic and exciting move.
The design promises for Oxford a state-of-the-art building by one of Britain's and the world's leading architects for use by scholars, students and the general public and responds to the physical context of the site with intelligence and sensitivity.
As well as providing a first-class facility for its current and future users, a new building by Hadid on the St Antony's campus would reinforce Oxford's position as a city of architectural excellence and ambition.
