Wed 6 Dec - interim crit at Brandenburg University of Technology, Cottbus
I travelled to Cottbus / BTU (Brandenburg University of Technology) this Wednesday to review work of the BTU master students for the Mount Pleasant site. They have been busy developing individual strategies and concepts of regeneration, that are now tested and spatialised on site. Here are a few impressions from the crit-session, their working environments and the campus library designed by Herzog deMeuron.
