This classic American campus is "straight out of central casting," says

architect Natalie Shivers, who has been guiding the prestige Ivy Leaguer

through an ambitious expansion plan. Princeton's style is pure Collegiate

Gothic; most of it executed in gray stone covered in, yes, ivy. As imposing as

these old stone structures are, the campus keeps life on a "human scale" by

preserving green spaces and "walkability," says Shivers. "Everything on campus

is within a 10-minute walk." Sinuous footpaths, archways, plazas--all are

designed to inspire spontaneous discussion and learning.

有經典的學院派哥特式建筑風格，大多數用灰色石材蓋就的建筑物上爬滿了常春藤（是的

，就是它）。盡管古老的石材建筑給人莊嚴肅穆之感，可整個校園卻一直保持著“人性化

”的綠色生活空間，和適于行走的狀態。Shivers談到：“校園的每一個角落，都可在10

分鐘內步行到達。” 蜿蜒小徑，拱門和廣場，所有這些建筑的設計都旨在激發人們的自

主學習和深度探討。
