Freiberg University of Mining New Campus
Client: Freistaat Sachsen
Area: 40 ha
Study: 2004

Founded in 1765 the "Bergakademie Freiberg" (since 1992 "Technical University") is the worlds oldest academy specialized in the sciences of mining and metallurgy. The school is located in the northern part of the city of Freiberg (Saxony) on either side of highway B 101. The built campus represents educational structure. Through the exchange of information and interdisciplinary academical processes ties are being formed creating a network of knowledge and connecting the different disciplines and fields of research. This ideological structure is integrated into the design and is transferred onto the development of the new campus. The design’s foundation are it’s layers: "Campus Grey"- Infrastructure, "Campus Green"- Vegetation,"Campus Orange"– Campus network. This layer-structure exemplifies the interaction of various components from which the campus’s intended character is developed.
