The Marga Klompé Building is situated on the campus of Tilburg University and accommodates a foyer, 1 auditorium, 13 lecture halls, and self-study spaces for approximately 1,000 students. Extensive efforts have been dedicated to creating the perfect learning environment for the students, with special attention on minimizing vibrations from the nearby train tracks.
The structural design is all about applying the right material at the right position. The result is a balancing act between steel trusses, timber beams and columns and a concrete core.
