2. Plan of the school

Basically, the school is consist of three arcs, which looks like the extension of the Round House to show its high adaption to its own building environment.

3. Moving Elements

For the first moving element, I made several screens coming out of the wall opposite to the lecture hall, which could not only provide display screens while teaching, but also ensure interior light besides teaching period.
These screens are made of the same size of the exterior windows so that it could be integrated nicely into the curved surface, showing a sense of unity and adaptability.

The second moving element is a rotatable glass shelf to hang gallery exhibits, which not only let visitors to see artworks from both sides of the shelf by simply pushing it around, but also create sort of changeable delicate sunlight on the ground.

Also, the shelves are presented into curved look to work in concert with the building as well.

7. Real time images

This is the outdoor garden on the third floor of the small arc building, which can also act as a gallery, showing a sense of flexibility.

Vast use of glass on the wall provides openness to viewers.

This is the view from the connection between NIDA, on the left is the tea room beside a workshop, we can see that different parts of glass form a nice curve on the wall of the workshop, not only add openness, but also indicate the unity of the curved lines throughout the school.

This is an open computer lab beside the lecture hall, on the floor we can see nice reflection of sunlight of the roof, adding vitality.
The black coloumns beside the lecture hall can not only ensure safety when students walking up the stairs, but also work well with the structure of the roof, providing harmonious feelings.

This is a view from the entrance behind the block house, we can see three staff offices in a line, opposite to them, the open library has been lifted up, providing a quiet learning space.
