Eemsdelta Campus ready for construction
From 2022, 1,700 students in the province of Groningen will attend classes on a green campus. Its design, by De Unie Architecten, brings different types of secondary education, practical education, cultural amenities, and sports facilities together into one architectural complex that spans 14,000m2 and six inter-connected buildings. The campus is set against four hectares of dynamic park landscapes, designed by Felixx Landscape Architects & Planners, which proudly presents the final design for its integral development. Its design took shape through a participative process that included all of the stakeholders involved: the municipality, the different schools, and different disciplines. The design team engaged in discussions with 18 school departments, and held more than 40 workshops with more than 400 future users. Construction is planned to begin in 2020, with completion anticipated for 2022. The Eemsdelta Campus will be earthquake proof, circular, and generate its own energy.
