Education, meeting and daylight
The University of Groningen’s Faculty of Law is moving to the city’s former public library. Together with Cruz y Ortiz, INBO designed the renovation and restructuring of the building on the Oude Boteringestraat. Our plan creates workspaces with plenty of daylight, various teaching halls and lots of meeting places.

‘The extra entrance improves the connection with the university buildings in the area.’

The new entrance to the Faculty of Law leads to a central space with a reception desk, coffee bar and sojourn and study areas.
