Each week I will highlight a design that inspires my own designs in some way. This week it's a residence at Harvard by architect Kyu Sung Woo.

Architect Kyu Sung Woo has designed a new graduate housing complex in Cambridge, MA. It is for Harvard University. 

The 115,000 SF project is a part of University’s ongoing effort to house 50 percent of its graduate, professional and doctoral students, further supporting a strong residential campus community and helping to alleviate pressure on the local housing market.

It houses 215 beds in over 30 different suite types, and includes a faculty director’s suite, a fitness room, study lounge spaces, a multipurpose room, and a garage that extends under the building, its courtyard, and a new public open space along Memorial Drive.

I'd like to hear your input on this project. Please feel free to leave a comment with your thoughts.
