Outline

This university architecture studio was structured to harmonize with the adjacent Koshien Kaikan hall designed by Arata Endo in 1930. The result is an innovative open space in which students can communicate and exchange ideas. The contrast of the precast concrete columns and the special border tiles on the walls produces dynamic tension between the long span structure and its sharp detailing. Design elements are repeatedly elaborated and in combination with the expression of structural materiality, an inspiring and authentic learning environment for architecture students with ample space is created.
