Abstract


A Hostel for this University City has been built in accordance with the following program of requirements: 400 rooms for students, in two separate blocks, together with a sanitary building with 20 rooms; a self-service restaurant, with capacity for 500 people sitting down, and a total capacity for 1500 eating simultaneously; kitchen and auxiliary services; a gymnasium with 800 sq. m. floor area; and general dressing and washing facilities for males and females. In addition to the above, there are a number of complementary dependencies, such as a club, games room, reading and lecture halls, infirmary, offices, five apartments, doorman's quarters, etc. The general arrangement of the buildings, and the audacious and balanced interplay of volumes makes this university hostel an imposing and serenely beautiful project.
