In line with a large building project and competition in 2006, SEHW Architecture has carried out the campus extension. The competition comprised the urban planning and implementation of a functional building, a lecture hall centre and student hostel for 200 students.  Image Courtesy © Verfgungsgebude

The central design elements are contrasts and their interaction: clearly defined functions (living and teaching) and new wide and narrow circulation axes, creating new plazas and individual areas, shortcuts and views and from the transition from the urbanity of the campus to the more intimate student housing.

The lecture hall center has been integrated in a listed industrial hall (hall 17). The historic character of the hall has been maintained and the auditorium and further fittings have been designed as “building within a building”, presented to the outside by a spacious vestibule.
