The two distinguished architects delivered an open lecture and presented several projects designed by their office. Among these projects are the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart, the Film Museum in Amsterdam and Darat King Abdullah II in Amman.

The lecture was part of a five-day architectural workshop organized by the Architectural Engineering Department in AUST College of Engineering. The theme of the workshop focused on the design of facades.

Students were asked to design facades of a medium-size building under the watchful eye of the guest architects. The final designs were presented on the last day of the workshop, and participants received certificates signed by Mrs. Delugan-Meissl and Mr. Delugan.

This is the fifth lecture in a series of workshops within the activities of the Architecture Department. The visits along with the workshop were coordinated by Dr. Jihad Awad of the Department of Architecture.
