Hi Everyone!
In September 2011 the University opened TheHub and it have
now been open for 1.5 years! Even from my first step inside, I was absolutely
amazed by its design and functionality. For a £35milion project they certainly
did a good job and it is used so much by students on campus.
Entering the building, on your left, is the super market
‘Amigo’. A lovely place to buy some snacks, drinks or even your lunch, though
there is a much better place to eat, but that –later! Next you can find COSTA,
best coffee to wake you up! Then is the reception – in a futuristic designed
‘office’ with really helpful and kind receptionist. They are also Coventry
University students so will understand your needs better than anybody else.
The informal study places are situated on the ground and
first floor. There are couple of separated areas around the tables and chairs.
The sitting areas are called ‘Nests’, a place where you can sit with your friends on Fatboys and ‘Pods’, ideal for group
meetings. Each pod is supplied with a TV screen, where you can play your
presentation and ease everybody by look at one screen. Very thoughtful, isn’t
it?
Every floor is provided
with brand new PCs which are for personal and university use. Fast and easy to
use, they are all connected to the university printers so you can print off
your files.
On the first floor you
can find the food court as well. Allowing you to try different types of dishes
you can treat yourself not only with pizza and sandwiches, but with freshly
cooked national and international meals. ‘Taste of the Mediterranean’ is great
and affordable for all students! Where else can you find Moussaka or Kleftiko?!
There is also a comfortable seating area.
The next surprise is the
roof garden – astonishing place with sitting area with flowers where
inspiration can easily strike you. After all you are on top of the world!
Inspired by
‘Transformers’, apparently, Square 1 is the cherry on top! TheHub’s venue is a
cinema during daytime and turns into a club at night! Excellent design and a
modern touch with folding chairs hidden in the walls! Another ‘magical’
surprise is the side garden – common for everybody, but when the club opens the
gates close and it becomes exclusive only for the customers.
Speak to you soon!
