'n Nuwe ingenieursfakulteitsgebou vir die Noordwes Universiteit (Afrikaans)

This study entails the design of a new engineering faculty building for the University of the North West’s (NWU) main campus at Potchefstroom. The design is influenced by considerations regarding the strengthening of the spatial qualities of the existing main campus, the campus’s relationship with its academic surrounds, requirements as stated by the office of the dean (faculty of engineering, NWU) and a commitment to sustainable design. The problem is addressed on the level of form. The answer is therefore spatial. A flexible architecture evolves. AFRIKAANS : Die studie behels die ontwerp van 'n nuwe ingenieursfakulteitsgebou vir die Noordwes Universiteit (NWU) se hoof kampus te Potchefstroom. Invloede op die vorming van die ontwerp is in hoofsaak oorwegings rondom die versterking van die ruimtelike kwaliteite van die bestaande kampus, die kampus se verband met sy akademiese omgewing, behoeftes gestel deur die kantoor van die dekaan (fakulteit ingenieurswese, NWU) en 'n verbintenis tot volhoubare ontwikkeling. Die probleem word aangespreek op die vlak van vorm. Die antwoord is dus ruimtelik. 'n Buigsame argitektuur ontwikkel.
