An insight into university accommodation, featuring projects in the USA and Europe. A fascinating insight into university accommodation. Current design modes of student residences are facing challenges of both philosophy and form. Past approaches no longer sustain new demands and require innovative thinking. The need for a new outlook is propelled by fundamental changes that touch upon environmental, economic, and social factors.
