University Campus in Leipzig by EEA Architects

University Campus in Leipzig by EEA Architects
The design for the University Campus in Leipzig (Germany) involves the upgrading of the existing University building through the creation of a foyer, an auditorium and a church/auditorium which can be used for academic lectures, religious services, concerts and exhibitions.

The original church, established in the middle age, was abruptly demolished in the 1960s.

The new design had to consider the historical surrounding buildings, the historical origin of the church, its current cultural meaning, and the memory of the city.

The newly formulated facade of the university on the Augustus Platz and the integration of the Campus in the City structure are the main contents of the presented design.
