Energy. Environment. Experiential Learning

摘要

For much of the year, the University of Calgary in Alberta is pretty bleak-the weather cold, the landscape barren, and the campus devoid of much architectural interest. Enter Peter Busby, Intl. Assoc. AIA, and his design for the 264,050-square-foot, $145.5 million (CAD) Energy. Environment.Experiential Learning (EEEL) center. "We wanted the building to stand out," says University of Calgary director of campus planning lonathon Greggs of the five-story structure, which boasts a glass-andaluminum exterior that gleams in the high-plains sunlight. Busby adds,"We made it shiny and added color. I've raised four kids and I know what attracts them."
