Technology Building in Leuven  / de Jong Gortemaker Algra Architects - Facade

The new building on the edge of the university campus is not merely a functional building one has to accept, and certainly not an unavoidable intrusion either. Indeed, it enhances the visual appeal of the quarter and accommodates, on some 6000 square metres floor area, the quarter’s energy and data centre. For functional reasons the three-storey building is all but opaque. There are numerous ventilation openings but few places that could be glazed, such as the two staircases on either of the narrow sides and an area on the first floor.
