Tietgenkollegiet

Copenhagen has an interesting mix of old and new architecture. Tietgenkollegiet is a famous dorm with distinctive architechture. On Sunday night, I got to visit Tietgen to have dinner and participate in a focus group for a friend's class project. 


It's a round building on the southern side of Copenhagen. There is a large round courtyard in the middle. The top picture shows the outside and the bottom picture shows the view into the courtyard from the 5th floor. It was distinctive outside and inside. However, it still seemed livable  The common kitchens and living rooms were big and light from the windows and it seems to be well designed. I wish  I could have lived in a dorm like this at Wheaton...
