Overview
This university complex was designed to meet the students’ needs, featuring residential and administrative areas, academic facilities, sports fields, a gym, a restaurant and a cafeteria. The plan places the administrative tower close to the main street and away from the residential edge, with service roads and a landscaped core between the teaching and housing zones.

Design notes
- 01The brief is a small city: college, administrative tower, housing, gym, cafeteria, restaurant and sports fields on one site.
- 02Zoning is by time of use — teaching and administration facing the street, housing and sport held inside the landscaped core.
- 03The Architecture University building is developed as its own massing study, with sections that step the building into the slope of the site.
