Machi to sumai no tsudoi

”Machi to sumai no tsudoi” is the name given to a series of lectures aimed at the general public that are delivered by teaching staff from Nagoya University’s architecture team from the viewpoint of their own specialism. The lectures are open to all, and we look forward to welcoming as many people as possible.


Basic design for the Engineering and Science Building

The Nagoya University Engineering and Science Building was completed in March 2011. The basic design of the building is mainly attributable to the Campus Planning & Environment Management Office and the faculty member of the architecture course. It combines a rebuilt School of Engineering Building 4 (around 10,000 m2), which housed the School’s administration office and architecture course, and the newly built Kobayashi-Maskawa Institute for the Origin of Particles and the Universe (around 5,000 m2). Located in a prominent position, it forms an entrance to the School of Engineering and the School of Science area with the intention of attracting a large number of users, including researchers, students, and members of the local community, through a deck above the street and an atrium space with a three-dimensional structure that links various functional sections such as a hall, a library, an exhibition center, a lecture theater, and a research hub. Furthermore, the building has many features that are intended to reduce its environmental load; not least among these are LED lighting throughout and a passive ventilation system.
