The design practiced the ideal of a mixture of Mountain, Urbanization and Garden, which is to utilize the unique site conditions to naturally present an unusual design. The campus would serve as a transition between nature and the city, playing a bridging and buffering role.
The entire campus is arranged in a semi-enclosed manner, opening to the mountains and forests in the north. It would allow more campus area to see natural mountains while avoiding noise interference from expressways as much as possible. Standard classrooms are arranged in the south area of the plot. It could effectively reduce noise interference from expressways through distance. A rich and diverse internal space was designed to face the mountains and forests, while it is a complete and concise street interface facing the expressway, presenting a transitional state from the mountains to the urban.
This high-density campus has three-dimensional, multi-layer surfaces. The first layer is the ground floor with natural gardens; the second layer is a wandering corridor that brings a sense of closeness to the ground; and the third layer combines with an elevated sports field to form a large ground that can run. The sports field is the green valley in the center of the campus and a high-density three-dimensional place, the lower part of which places a gymnasium, a multifunctional hall, a library and other large-span public functional space.
The campus will become the contemporary Lingnan style buildings with wide and profound eaves and affiliated space underneath. There are corridors with functions of sun and rain protection. There is public spaces with cold alleys. There is a gymnasium with natural ventilation and light on three sides. There is a lecture hall with with flexible walls that can be loosened, and dormitories with sound-proof walls along the road,etc. All these elements make the project a new campus with its own characteristics!
