Ørestad College
Dee Sandin — April 2, 2008 — Art & Design
Seriously! If we'd had colleges that looked like this, some of us might have stayed long enough to graduate! But then again, Ørestad College in Copenhagen, Denmark is just about the the coolest study space I've ever seen and studying may not be the first thing that comes to mind. Open, airy spaces with giant cushions, the college is interconnected vertically and horizontally. What a shame that these students have it so rough. They'll adjust.
Implications - There's no doubt many students are thinking they could have stayed in school a lot longer if their school were to look like this. The cool and suave interior of this Denmark schol spells comfort and fun.
