Undergraduate and graduate research services, an art gallery, offices, medical and counseling services, and more.<\/p>

It is four stories high and houses student housing units.

The building is located on a sloping plot of land, closely related to the surrounding landscape: the Ticino Alps and Lake Lugano. It combines two architectural blocks with different functions, thus creating independent but interconnected spaces that are only connected by perspective views: the volume of communal and educational spaces and the volume of university residences. The luminous body, which develops in a sinuous shape on the ground floor, welcomes the communal and educational rooms.<\/p>
The satined and semi-transparent U-glass material used for the construction discreetly shows the vitality of the university's conference rooms, which are to become an urban meeting point and symbol of the university complex. A semi-public open space, a small "square", a meeting point and a place of exchange in close relation to the functions surrounding it.<\/p>
