The coolest student dorm in the world

To call this beauty a "dorm" - the tongue does not turn. This hostel for students is located in Orestad, a new district of Copenhagen in Denmark. It is called the Tietgen Campus and is a round residential building with an impressive courtyard. The building was built in 2006. There are 360 rooms on seven floors, occupying a total area of 26,800 sq.m. The round shape of the building is a symbol of equality and unity.
