Tietgenkollegiet
The architects used the traditional Tulou constructions of southeast China [village communities with individual dwellings and communal facilities combined in a circular building] as a source of inspiration for the Tietgenkollegiet. The concept is creating space for both communal and private life in the building by assigning equal weight to the individual apartments and the communal facilities. The hall is shaped like a 7-storey rotunda. The building is intersected by five vertical cuts, which divide the building both visual and functional into sections and provide access to the central courtyard space and the hall. The ground floor comprises a café, great hall, laundrette, bicycle parking and study, computer, music and conference rooms. The student residences are located on the upper floors. All rooms, 360 in total measuring 26-33 m², provide a view of the surroundings. The communal kitchens, recreation rooms, terraces and utility rooms are located facing towards the courtyard.
