It is a building that challenges the mind and body and creates a strong connection between the building and its surroundings. Using the sports facility as a “roof” spanning four houses, we create a shared experience, both physical and spiritual, while also creating a new hybrid between knowledge and sport.

These are four separate volumes but interconnected in several ways: the space of the city floats over the building at the entrance, and the crossed staircase connects the three-storey atrium and the top-floor public realm. The sports facilities on the top floor hover above four heavy houses and give the building a truly inspiring identity. As night falls, a story about the vibrant environment of education, research and sport begins.
