On September 23 was a big day for Solvay Brussels School. Our brand new headquarters were officially unveiled and open to the public. Press conference with all the major Belgian press in the morning, big thank you reception in presence of the public and academic authorities for all the private and corporate donators in the evening, the day was a success.
The new home of the Solvay Brussels School is standing tall on one of the most prestigious avenues of Brussels. It will, from now on, act as a daring symbol of the school’s prestige and its ambitions for the future. The brief was simple: high-tech equipment, bold design and open to the outside world. The result? 10.000 m² and 5 storeys of interacting spaces, a state-of-the-art architecture finally giving the school the bite to match its bark.
Adjacent to the ULB grounds, the new building will offer a wide range of technical and high-tech equipment:
- one 250-seat amphitheatre
- 16 auditoria with 120, 80, 60 or 40 seats
- one 60-seat IT Center
- one large atrium
- 30 working and communication rooms for the SBS community
- offices and meeting rooms for professors, researchers and administrative staff
With these new facilities, the school almost doubles its working space. And, if the teaching and administrative bodies are going to be a bit more comfortable, it is the students who are the main beneficiaries of this enlargement with 16 brand-new auditoria and a 60-seat IT Center equipped with all the latest technologies. The atrium will work as the focal point of all these communicating spaces and become the heart of the SBS-EM community.
