In University residences, the categories of stability and durability, which are usually attributed to architecture, do not necessarily have to be applied. The temporariness of these structures, which may seem a contradiction – if not an oxymoron – has become one of the design paradigms that define the essential element of this form of living. In student housing, the temporary character can take on a plurality of meanings: constructive, functional, of use, etc. The contribution illustrates how University residences have now freed themselves from a monotonous and standardized image and have reached interesting levels of quality, succeeding in giving credible answers on the technological and figurative level that could also be assumed in our country.
