Process: Extension to Bocconi University in Milan

The Università Commerciale Luigi Bocconi is a well-known private school of economics in Milan. To mark its centenary in 2001, the university held a competition for the largest extension in its history. The “offices for a thousand professors” scattered about the surrounding area were to be united in a single complex. In addition, a divisible “aula magna”, a grand assembly hall with seating for 1,000 persons, was to be created, together with other lecture halls and conference spaces.
