Holl Lotta Building Going On: Princeton Nabs Starchitect Steven

Zaha Hadid isn’t the only one who has just secured a plum university commission. Princeton University announced today the selection of Steven Holl Architects to design the initial academic buildings for the university’s new “arts and transit neighborhood,” which sounds suspiciously like a Weebles play set we had as a child.

Holl’s firm, perhaps best known for its recent expansion and renovation of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City (the one everyone likes to photograph at dusk), will be responsible for designing several buildings to house Princeton’s theater and dance programs, parts of the music department, the Lewis Center for the Arts, and the Society of Fellows in the Creative and Performing Arts.
