The Richards Building was the first
multi-story, rigid-frame structure to
employ pre-cast, pre-stressed, and
post-tensioned concrete
construction in the United States. 1
Each independent eight-story tower
is supported on eight precast
concrete columns, set at one-third
points on the facade of the building,
supporting a latticework of 47' long
primary and shorter secondary
Vierendeel trusses in precast,
prestressed concrete, each steam-
cured to a high finish.
The building is formed by two wings
angled in plan that face roughly east out
to the North Sea. Andrew Melville Hall is
located on the north side of the town
and faces onto the famous golf course.
The land slopes up to the west.
The initial impression is of strong
programme and acres of concrete. The
buildings have a serrated plan - the
angled windows provide strong rhythm
to the facades
Ribbed concrete panels - with the
pattern set at 45 degrees - are
tessellated in an intriguing way and
broken at roughly mid-height on the
elevation by a strip of glazing.
The landscape flows around the building
in a fairly simple way, rolling grass over
smooth mounds, a bit like the landscape
at the Burrell Museum.

CAMBRIDGE FACULTY OF LAW
19-- Late modernism
Late modernism
Designed by Denys Lasdun in the
early 60’s and implemented in
stages through the latter half of
the C20 the masterplan for the
UEA is based on the idea of the
‘five minute university’. The idea
that students should be able to
get from lectures to halls in five
minutes or less. At the front are
the iconic ziggurats where the
students live and behind the
‘teaching wall’, an enormous
snake of a building connected by
high-level walkways to the
ziggurats and to the right to the
social area with the union, shops
and lecture theatres and finally
more of the ziggurats at the
bottom.
Combining a sense of tradition with a
forward-looking commitment to
change, the new Faculty of Law
provides state-of-the-art facilities as
well as setting new standards for
energy efficiency on the Cambridge
campus. The curving glass of the
north façade floods the atrium and
library with light, providing a sense of
transparency and helping the building
to recede visually.

The Educatorium is composed of
two planes which fold to
accommodate a range of distinct
programs, including an outdoor
plaza, two lecture halls, cafeteria
and exam halls. Planes interlock to
create a single trajectory in which
the entire university experience -
socialization, learning,
examination - is encapsulated
The point of departure of the
design are two sheets which fold
and interlock. The concrete slab is
treated as a malleable surface
which allows an optimum fit for
each program. The sloped planes
of the entrance plateau function
like an urban plaza or mixing
chamber. .
Architect – Rem Koolhaas
The large single-storey Campus
Center provides a focal point for the
previously sundered halves of the
campus, and features a noise-
absorbing steel tube wrapping the
Elevated metro that runs directly over
the building and, inside, a dense
mosaic of programs including a
bookstore, food court, café,
auditorium, computer centre, and
meeting spaces. Rather than
stacking activities in a multi-storey
building, we opted to arrange each
programmatic element of the
Campus Center in a dense single
plane that would foster an urban
condition.

"The focal point of this university
centre is the auditorium building
with two large halls (also intended
for congresses). Its staircase-like
ascending rows of windows
suggest from the outside and
amphitheatre. All tuition rooms are
in adjacent buildings grouped about
small internal courts, and here are
also found the smaller lecture-
rooms, laboratories and professors'
rooms. The centre is divided into
three principal departments:
general, geodetic and architectural.
The chief materials are dark red
brick, black granite and copper."
This residential college, built among
dense woods, is comprised of student
housing, classrooms, commons, and
service buildings. While the exterior
view is natural terra cotta, the facades
facing the pedestrian "street" are
primarily white painted stucco. The
"street" is about 1000 feet long,
makes a sharp "L," and twists upward
to an octagonal eating hall and
meeting room. This street meanders
and no building aligns with its
neighbor.

National Dong Hwa University is situated
on the unpolluted and unadulterated
Taiwanese East Coast in the middle of
Hualien County. To the west of the
University towers the foothills of the
Central Mountain Range, and to the east
lies the emerald-green Pacific Ocean. The
Hualien Rift Valley area possesses a
variety of unique geographical features,
ranging from rustic valleys and rolling hills
to vast open prairies. The campus layout
is basically designed with a south-facing
orientation with the central axis tilting 20°
west from the north to avoid direct
sunlight
Architect – Chares W
Moore
The front wall of the club, which
faces the lagoon, is partially the
result of a controversy with the
campus architect, Charles
Luckman. When he saw our
building, he said is was
unacceptable, that it looked
terrible, didn’t look like his stuff,
and had to have a bris-soleil. He
thought that would cause us to
put a screen over it which would
hide this awful building which we
had done, and he wouldn’t have
to worry about it any more. It
swept over me in the middle of
the night, that all we have to do is
have another wall in front of our
opening, with other holes in it.
Thanks to Charles Luckman, then
came our first free standing
walls.”

The Seattle Art Museum is an art
museum located in Seattle,
Washington, USA. It maintains
three major facilities: its main
museum in downtown Seattle; the
Seattle Asian Art Museum (SAAM)
in Volunteer Park on Capitol Hill,
and the Olympic Sculpture Park on
the central Seattle waterfront,
which opened on January 20, 2007.
Admission to the sculpture park is
always free. Admission to the other
facilities is free on the first
Thursday of each month; SAM also
offers free admission the first
Saturday of the month. And even
the normal admission is suggested,
meaning that the museum would
like you to pay the complete
admission but if you can not pay
fully you can still enjoy the
museum.
'The result is a coherent
sculptural image, but one that
is grasped piece by piece,
incident by incident, as one
moves from the public space
of the estate to the
increasingly closed world of
the school. The scale has
been cut down to that of a
child's world: enclosed,
dappled by light and shade,
surrounded by plants,
capable of receiving fantasy.'

This extension was added to the
original Renaissance Revival style
library built in 1888-95 by McKim,
Mead and White. A quarry was
reopened so that the granite of the
original building could be used in the
addition.
The addition, in a classically derived
modern idiom, maintains the same
roof line and uses a version of string
courses in an attempt at unifying the
new addition with the older building.
Instead of the narrow arches of the
original, the addition uses three large
bays with arched windows which
echo the interior.

It is designed, in a neo-

characterised by open
verandah-style corridors
linking classrooms with
generous full-height
windows. His distinctive
and influential plan forms
were based on a linear
module which could be
arranged in different
configurations to suit the
size of school required and
the shape of the available
site. The advances
Widdows made in school
planning were recognized
by his contemporaries
The Dipoli was designed in
the early 1960s by the Finnish
architect couple Raili and
Reima Pietilä, whose work
represents a very different
kind of modernism in the field
of Finnish architecture. (let’s
just say their approach was
more organic and “non-
Miesian”). The building is
really hard to describe, you
would have to see it for
yourself. Somehow, it is
absolutely remarkable in its
dualistic outlook, combining
extreme plasticity (in the pre-
computer days) and the
orthogonal, but also has a fair
amount of kitch in its Swiss
Inn-looking wooden and stone
interiors.

FOTHILL COLLEGE CALIFORNIA
Foothill's unique neo-Japanese
architecture is well-known among
architects;[5] the campus was
designed by architect Ernest Kump
and landscape architect Hideo Sasaki.
Peter Walker created a master plan,
landscape design and development
for this 122-acre campus, including
roads, parking, grading, planting,
courts, and plazas. An acropolis
scheme of two hilltops—one for
academics, the other for athletics—
were linked by a pedestrian bridge.
Several groves lie throughout the
campus including a central formal
one, a parking lot dotted with flowering
pear trees, and two smaller ones of
California sycamore and birch
respectively.

windows adhere to the entrance, set off-center and broadside in the

Architect Michael Graves is a
postmodernist who brings innovation
and playful design to sophisticated
buildings and everyday objects such
as teakettles. Paralyzed late in life, he
has also become a spokesman for
universal design. The bright colors
and simple forms make it very fitting
for the people that the building serves,
as it is fun, playful and inviting. The
playfulness of light in the central
atrium with arched ceilings and
multiple skylights add to the
experience, as rooms are brightened
and colors are enhanced by the flow
of natural light.
