This striking yellow building, now housing Halls of Residence for the University of Strathclyde, was designed by Weddel and Inglis in 1937. It began life as the Beresford Hotel, which was to accommodate visitors to the Empire Exhibition. The architecture reflects the exhibition's art deco theme. The building's fins were originally scarlet and black and its twin towers were capped with flagpoles. Inglis designed and owned cinemas; the similarity between this and the cinema styles of the time is plain to see. Out of term time, Baird Hall returns to its roots and offers bed and breakfast accommodation to tourists at very reasonable rates. Contact the University of Strathclyde Residential Services for further information and bookings.
