Anggara Architeam attended VU Summit London on 26–29 October 2026 and presented a campus building in Bandung as a case study.

VU Summit London 2026, hosted by the Council on Vertical Urbanism, brought together expertise in architecture, urban planning and development. Discussions centred on high-density cities and their relation to vertical urbanism.

On 28 October, Budi Sumaatmadja presented on vertical campus design in the session Community, Well-being and Vertical Urbanism, together with other architects and professionals. The case study was the Arntz-Geise Learning Center at Universitas Katolik Parahyangan (UNPAR), Bandung, designed by Anggara Architeam.

The building stands on a steeply contoured hillside in Ciumbuleuit, a dense area with limited room to expand. Its design works with a 10.8-metre elevation difference through a passive “levelling” massing strategy, a modular structural grid and a skybridge between the building’s two towers. The talk looked at how its communal nodes, which include that skybridge and a rooftop plaza, relate to this setting.
