NEW GROUND

The FAR of the extension is concentrated at the main annex along the West (right in this image) to allow for lower buildings closer to human scale within the campus, while still providing enough room for workshops and event spaces. One of those lower building hosts the Arena of Arts, North of the campus. The Arena is located on the roof of the new building housing the seminar rooms, workshops, library, and multipurpose room. It is a new meeting and creation space for students. Its height allows residents and visitors to visually access the Arena of the Arts.
