With its striking gridded facade and amoeba-shaped internal cavities, Steven Holl's new dormitory for MIT, Simmons Hall, is without question one of the most original and idiosyncratic architectural statements of recent memory.

Commentary by the architect and design critics explores both the technical aspects and cultural contexts of the building.
