HAMTAEHYEON

Delft University of Technology's new Department of Geotechnology, part of the school's faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences (CiTG), is housed in a building at one end of the CiTG complex, which was designed by Van den Broek en Bakema. The façade was stripped and given a new glass curtain wall imprinted with a pattern of stones sawed in half. Existing window cleaners' balconies were converted into bay windows equipped with built-in air conditioners. Slanting lines in the façade follow the spatial organization of the interior, a landscape of laboratories, workstations and study areas. Voids were added to connect existing floors and to represent transparency in the education provided here. Floors were enlarged by adding a new stairwell at one end of the building. Materials and colours derived from the original building were applied in a more 'virtual' manner.

The construction of the main library of the Delft University of Technology was finished in 1997. The design is performed by Mecanoo an architecture office based in Delft. The building has won the Dutch "National Steel Price" in 1998 in the category buildings of steel and hybrid constructions because of the extraordinary use of steel in different parts of the building. But for many TU Delft students, as me, the building is mainly the place were you spent most of your days during the exam periods. In the summer you have your study breaks in the sun on the grass rooftop of the building and in the winter it is Delfts only natural ski track (Delft has a very flat country side), which students take with the weirdest real technical Delft designed sledges. Being on the grass roof top of the building was always more interesting than being inside.

델프트역에서 버스를 타고  약 5~10분정도 TUdelft로 이동한다. TUdelft AURA정류장에서 하차 후 여기저기 돌아 다녔다. TUdelft가 넓다보니 보고 찍고 하는 것들이 너무도 많다. 델프트는 TUdelft의 도시라고  할 수 있을 정도로 이 도시에 델프트공대의 의미는 남다르다. 그래서 이 작은 도시에 많은 주목을 하는 것이라 할 수 있겠다.
