Four of the most recent landmarks on TU Delft campus are featured above.

The modern glass extension to the long Civil Engineering building houses the Department of Geoscience & Engineering. Photographs of a thin section cut from a stromatolite are printed on its glass windows.

Echo is a cross-faculty educational building that is sustainable and energy-producing. Thanks to its open design, education is visible from the outside.

The artificial hill with a 40 m high steel cone shelters the partially buried library. Students sit and socialize on the 15% sloped green roof in summer and use it as a sledging platform during winter (when it snows). The steel cone acts as a light well and symbolizes technical engineering.

The Mekelpark, named after Prof Mekel, professor of geology and WWII resistance is 800 m long and 80 m wide. It connects all TU Delft faculties via a carefully designed network of paths for pedestrians, cyclists, skaters, buses, and trams.
