Fifth-year department interns Kristina Eldrenkamp and Emma Bently created a “window” — at long last — in the slide llibe study area. A table and comfortable chairs turned a former faculty area into a student-friendly work space. Matisse’s 1905 Open Window, Collioure is the focal point of this day-brightening new area in Boliou.

Toff resigned to only wishing it was a window! -
A cat can still relax in the area — even if he can’t sit in the window -
Sleeping is ALWAYS an option -
