Currently being a university student, I can appreciate other
facilities. But this one was special it’s a ecological environmental friendly
building., I really got excited with some of the features. The university of Luxemburg
in Belval was established in 2003 and currently has ~6000 students. I know
about environment friendly buildings, but I haven’t had the experience of using
one. So here are some of my experiences in this one. The rooms don’t need
lighting because each room has great windows which give enough light, we never
opened the light once in our workshop. There are no ACS, only openings in the
windows through levels which allow air to come in forming a natural AC, unfortunately,
it did not take into consideration out door noise which also comes in, there
are motion detection lighting where needed so every time I visited the ladies
room, the lights went on and off as I entered or left, so electricity saving
yes, but water saving no – they did not have dual flush toilets, every floor
has an emergency station with a first aid kit, fire extinguisher and more,
there are metal panel for signs on the walls and they are put on with magnets, State
of the art video conference rooms, gigantic screen in each room for
presentations, and my favorite all the walls of the classroom are actually a whiteboard
on which you can write and brainstorm. It comes with a suitcase and markers and some more stuff, I really enjoyed writing on the wall it
was great.
