CONCEPT :RED-DEFINING SCHOOL OF ARCH
Architecture schools are centres of creative
arts &innovationas such the New school of
architecture building must shhowcase creativity
and portray architecture school as a place of
thought,discussion and reflection This creativity
can be displayed through dynamic interplay of
the additive form with regards to the Existing
ADD structure
RESPECTING THE EXISTING BUILFING
In an effort to respect the existing building
which commands the site with its granduer
and strategic placement few elements
synonimous to the existing building (ADD)
were borrowed and redefined in the new
building
1.Additive form of ADD
2.sunshading elements
3.Materiality and finishes
4.Cascading terrace
