The designers aimed to create non-hierarchical spaces for learning and interaction between students regardless of socio-economic background.
The building complex incorporates a variety of generous open-air spaces conducive to gathering, resting, and strolling. Thus it creates a learning environment where, side-by-side with classrooms and lecture halls, facilities such as informal reading spaces, cafes, study rooms, and reception hall encourage unstructured encounters and exchanges of ideas among students and between students and teachers.
