The facades of the buildings feature
natural wood cladding which screens the loggias from the sun, while inside, the apartments
overlook the square through wide windows. The hall of residence hosts 328 students and is organized in 124 apartments and flatlets for 1, 2 or 4 people. The common service areas
with meeting rooms, study rooms and a library are positioned on the ground floor, while the gym, music room and a second study room are at the top of the building. Purpose-built as independent units and complete with all amenities, the apartments are fitted with kitchen blocks and made-to-measure furniture.
