Samenvatting

SmartHub is about creating opportunities for different generations to learn from each other, share life wisdoms, make new relationships and maintain these. Organized as a club, an inspirational place is offered to stimulate interactivity by working together, communicating and sharing knowledge. Between the TU campus and the old center of Delft a former school building with monumental qualities is transformed into an inviting surrounding for young and old academicians and other professionals to share business cases and scientific issues.
The design follows different design drivers: opening the existing load bearing structure, adding an atrium at the heart of the building, making forum zones, adding connecting staircases, transforming and connecting the three main levels.
