Sagaseta Idoia: Pursuing Architectural Dreams at Tianjin University

　　Among all the international freshmen this year, a tall girl is especially eye-catching. Her name is. Sagaseta Lasa Idoia. Raised in Spain, she has been deeply influenced by the architect Antoni Gaudí and possesses a passion for architecture. Antoni Gaudí i Cornet was known as the greatest exponent of Catalan Modernism. Gaudí's works were highly individualized and world-renowned. Seventeen of his works have been listed as national cultural relics by Spain and seven as World Cultural Heritage sites by UNESCO.

　　After Sagaseta learned about Chinese architecture, she was so enchanted with eastern art that she decided to leave her home for Tianjin University, which is famous for its architecture and pursue her education here. She said that the School of Architecture at Tianjin University is among the top ranked schools in China with renowned professors and teachers.

　　Sagaseta believes that she can not only keep up with the frontiers of development in Chinese architecture, but also enjoy the beauty of classical Chinese architecture by living within it. “I can’t wait to start my life at TJU.” Sageseta said earnestly.
