Is it just me or is BIG going in circle's it's like they only have 3 or 4 tricks up their sleeve and just reuse the same concept over and over again.

Architects Diller Scofidio + Renfro have proposed a medical education centre at New York’s Columbia University that appears to have had its skin peeled away from its skeleton. The 14-storey building will be constructed at the existing medical campus in northern Manhattan and will accommodate facilities for physicians, surgeons, nurses, dentists and doctors in training. Students will be able to recreate real-life medical situations within one of the proposed simulation rooms, or study in groups using learning spaces in the hallways. Timber-clad boxes slotted into the glass facade will provide decked balconies and a decked terrace will offer a view out over the Hudson River. Explaining the layout, Elizabeth Diller says that “spaces for education and socializing are intertwined to encourage new forms of collaborative learning among students and faculty.” The building will be completed in collaboration with architects Gensler and is scheduled to open in late 2016.
