ThyssenKrupp Steel Kindergarten
“Understated, metallic and perfectly harmonised,” is how ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe describes its recently launched ReflectionsPearl® range, but it is also an accurate description the company’s colourful new kindergarten in Duisburg, which makes good use of the coil-coated steel façade system.

Sports Centre Odessa
Since we all know the story of the tortoise and the hare, a tortoise may not seem the most obvious choice of building form for a sports complex. But it is the form that architect Yuri Seryogin picked for the Yuzhny Sports Complex in Odessa, Ukraine, a building that also has an associated hotel. Other facilities include a children’s play area and a park.

Student Housing
How do you house students at a new university? This was the dilemma that faced architects Te Kiefte Architecten when asked to provide temporary student accommodation for a new university that was founded at The Hague in the Netherlands. Eventually the university will build permanent accommodation but for the present it needed studio rooms for 122 students – plus some common facilities – with a planned lifespan of five years.
