Description:
Ultuna, five kilometres south of central Uppsala, is the main Campus of the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, or Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU). Conversion of a barn for use as university canteen for students and staff. The exterior of the building is very little touched and still has its original agricultural look, that makes it a part of the surrounding. Inside the canteen the use of mirrors cleverly suggests a bigger restaurant. (SLU),
