This project is a 21st-century reinvention of the ?collegiate quadrangle?, the basis of Oxford?s academic and urban fabric. The Oxford quadrangle is an 800-year-old pedagogical model that combines student rooms with teaching spaces, organised around landscaped courtyards. Every Oxford College is a variation of this typology. Alison Brooks Architects? new 6,000 mÂČ Cohen Quad will expand Exeter College?s 700-year-old campus in the heart of Oxford, with undergraduate and graduate living accommodation for 90 students, auditorium, seminar rooms, social learning spaces (The Learning Commons), special collections archive, cafĂ©, roof terrace, offices and fellows? accommodation.
