Here's an architectural abstract photo of the facade of the Hawkins/Brown Beecroft building. Opened in 2018, this is the first University of Oxford Department of Physics building built for over 50 years.

From the Hawkins / Brown website : "Sited in a highly sensitive and prominent location the Beecroft Building is a landmark within the wider university context. Completing the existing physics complex within the Science Area, the new building sits on a very high profile site at the entrance to the University Parks, opposite Sir William Butterfield’s grade I listed Keble College Chapel among prominent, historic trees. Including a new forecourt and public realm improvements around the University Parks entrance, the Beecroft Building establishes an identifiable gateway to the university estate along Parks Road.

The building enjoys expansive views across the University Parks to the north and is arranged to respond to a varied context with a range of scales and settings. The building form and facade were carefully designed in response to surrounding buildings. It is clad in a combination of bronze, glass and expanded copper mesh insert panels with a grid of naturally weathering bronze fins. The rhythm, vertical emphasis and colour respond to the upright gothic style of Keble College. Large picture windows frame views into and out of the internal collaboration spaces, creating visual connections between activities within the building and its context."
