Project idea

The project is a mixed-use student center designed in the style of Peter Zumthur. The center aims to provide a range of amenities for students, including a garden in a glazed structure, a large art gallery space, a theater, student dormitories, a two-floor library, offices, administration spaces, and retail shops. The project seeks to incorporate materials from the surrounding area, as Peter Zumthur has done in previous works, in order to create a cohesive and contextual design.

Project description

The student center will be a multi-functional facility that will serve as a central hub for students on campus. The design of the center will be based on the principles of Peter Zumthur, with a focus on creating a sense of community and connection to the surrounding environment. The center will include a garden in a glazed structure, providing a unique and peaceful space for students to relax and study. The art gallery space will be a significant feature of the center, providing a platform for students to showcase their work and for the community to engage with art. The theater will provide a space for performances and events, while the student dormitories will offer accommodation options for students. The two-floor library will provide a quiet and conducive space for students to study, while the offices and administration spaces will house administrative staff and support services. The retail shops will cater to the basic needs of the students.

Technical information

The project will be constructed using materials sourced from the surrounding area, as per the design principles of Peter Zumthur. The glazed structure will be designed to provide natural light and ventilation to the garden, while also serving as a thermal buffer. The theater will be equipped with state-of-the-art sound and lighting systems, while the library will have an automated book retrieval system. The student dormitories will be designed to provide a comfortable and secure living environment, with amenities such as shared kitchens and lounges. The offices and administration spaces will be equipped with the latest technology and communication systems.
