Abstract

Two entities, town and university, each playing different functional roles, different in scale and structure, come together at one point. The architecture of that point is a transitional condition. Each element has integrity on its own, and at the same time is a part of the system.

The primary requirement for the architecture of this place is to be elegant and thoughtful. This idea is addressed in five scales within the project: the axis, the street, the paths, the wall, and the room.
