UK - Oxford - Open Doors 2021 - Cohen Quad 15_DSC8555

My Website : Twitter : Facebook : Instagram : Photocrowd

You can see the timber colonnade of the Alison Brooks designed Cohen Quad from the Walton Street entrance but what isn't so apparent there's a further section further back which replicates the form but is made of concrete.

I'm a self-confessed fan of good quality concrete so maybe I'm biased, but I think this is more beautiful as the simplicity of the form is emphasized.

From Alison Brook's website : "This project is a 21st century reinvention of the ‘collegiate quadrangle’, the basis of Oxford’s academic and urban fabric. The Oxford quadrangle is an 800 year old pedagogical model that combines student rooms with teaching spaces, organised around landscaped courtyards. Every Oxford college is a variation of this typology. Alison Brooks Architects’ new 6000m² Cohen Quad will expand Exeter College’s 700 year old campus in the heart of Oxford, with undergraduate and graduate living accommodation for 90 students, an auditorium, seminar rooms, social learning spaces, archive, café, roof terraces, offices and fellows’ accommodation."
