Mass of Studio Spaces appear to float above the ground while the main level is encased entirely by glass.
Lecture Hall along with other public spaces form an open floor plan on the main level.
Sunken Gardens provide natural sunlight to subterranean program spaces.
Multi-level Terraces gradually step down with the existing landscape and create exterior gathering areas.

Conceptual Development: | From Solid to Segments |
Studios are a singular form and a separate entity from the other program.
Landscape becomes terraces creating separate green spaces.
Light Wells slice through the studio mass allowing light to penetrate to lower programs.
Catwalks connect the studios and act as flex spaces and pin up areas.

from one another.

Programmatic Diagrams: | Overlapping Spaces |
Various programs
overlap one another creating connections between different sources of media.
Balconies extended past boundaries creating voids in the solid parallel walls.
Information could be
shared visually and audibly depending on each location.
Programs can be
linked visually, enhancing the learning process.

Organizational Structure: | Parallel Wall System |
A parallel wall system dictates where the programmatic spaces are placed.
Each program can remain
compartimentalized or the wall could contain voids expanding the program into the next slot.
The walls will take
on a new interior facade each time a program extends.

Building Form: | Wrapping |
Wrapping program around the ruin drew focus to it and added significance to the old structure.
Circulation paths allowed for interaction amongst the existing site and visitors.
The ruin became a background to
the performance stage located at the center of the circulation and terraced hardscape.
