With sun predominately from the south year round, it was important to take advantage of northern winds and shading for outdoor interaction year round.

Allocating area by occupancy needs with a pie chart, I explored how to arrange programing with circulation. I also prioritized connections with views of exterior spaces.

Ground floor circulation was focused toward interaction with the central courtyard coupled with interactive programing such as rec., labs, and dinning.

Upper floor programming housed the bulk of classrooms, which engaged the exterior through green roofs and classrooms that could open for direct engagement with natural aspects, such as lighting and ventilation.
