Collina degli Studenti
The new space based on sustainability at the Bovisa Campus of the Politecnico di Milano
"La Collina degli studenti" ("The Students' Hill") is the new building enriching the Bovisa-La Masa Campus of the Politecnico di Milano.
A real collina system, constituted by a 1,900 square metres of indoor surface area and 2,200 square metres of terraces and green areas. It is developed on three levels, housing spaces for students, teachers and laboratories.
The first floor of the building is entirely dedicated to students: it consists of a study room with 70 wired workstations, a canteen and three meeting rooms. From its large windows you can admire the hill that hosts tall trees, spaces for socializing and paved paths that culminate in a continuous staircase that connects it directly with the lower level of the square.
On the upper floor, there is the faculty’s space, dedicated to the university community, with bar-restaurant service, areas for informal meetings, leisure and group work, in addition to a wired meeting room and touchscreen devices for experimenting with new ways of working together.
The open-air terrace, reachable through a loggia path, represents an evocative multifunctional space suitable for organizing events.
At the building base, hidden by the orography of the terrain, there is the Cable Dynamics Lab of the Department of Mechanical Engineering.
"La Collina degli studenti" is part of Vivipolimi, the strategic project to upgrade the quality of work, research and teaching spaces at the Politecnico di Milano, bringing them in line with international standards, involving professors, researchers and assistants in developing projects.
