Forbes asked a panel of architects and campus designers to nominate their picks for the best-looking campuses in the world. These are their top choices.
《福布斯》杂志征询了诸多建筑师和校园设计师们的意见,让他们为“世界上最漂亮的大学校园”提名。以下为他们的首选名单。
Kenyon College
Gambier,Ohio
Mike Evans, a principal at Norfolk, Va., design firm Hanbury Evans Wright
Vlattas + Company, says to be beautiful a campus must have a "signature campus
space as a carrier of the campus brand." At Kenyon College, that space is
"Middle Path," a 10-foot-wide footpath that serves as the Gothic hilltop
campus' central artery. More than just a trail, it's a village green for the
tight-knit campus community. Sergei Lobanov-Rostovsky, who teaches 17th-
century poetry at Kenyon, says the college, both isolated and pastoral, is "a
small place to think big thoughts."
凯尼恩学院
位于美国俄亥俄州,甘比尔(Gambier)城

迈克·埃文斯(Mike Evans)强调说,任何校园都必须拥有一个“标志性空间以作为其校园
品牌的载体”,才能担得起“最美丽校园”的名号。在凯尼恩学院,这个空间是一条10英
尺宽、名为“中央大道”的人行道,它是这所坐落于山顶,哥特式风格校园的主要干道。
同时,在这座人际关系紧密的校园里,它还是大家的聚会场所。在此讲授17世纪诗歌课程
的Sergei Lobanov-Rostovsky教授还表示,这所远离喧嚣的田园式学院,可谓是“小地方
有着大思考”。
