Vertigo Workshop Extension

The Architectural Engineering course assignment was to design a temporary extension for TU/e Vertigo building’s workshop . Lack of space in Vertigo workshop occurs during peak project deadline times of the academic year and creates a need for temporary workshop extension .

The extension was designed in an existing access ramp pit (14), which leads into Vertigo building’s basement . This allowed to reuse existing access routes and infrastructure . The roof of the extension forms seating-stairs (83), which create playful environment and add value to the TU Eindhoven university campus . The workshop extension also has level access to the storage facilities and elevators for easy scale model transportation around the building . 11
