上海
An educational campus building featuring stacked horizontal volumes, integrated external stairs, and rhythmic vertical sun-shading louvers set against a natural landscape.
- What we like about this project
- A diagonal exterior stair visibly pierces the central facade plane like a built-in sculpture.

- Geometry
- Horizontal stacked volumes featuring an articulated facade with vertical louvers on the upper floor, an exterior diagonal stair element, and a prominent cylindrical tower mass on the right.
- Facade system
- Panelized rainscreen cladding with deep vertical louvers and punched ribbon windows.
- Structural guess
- Reinforced concrete frame with cantilevered floor plates and shear walls.
- Spatial scale
- Large institutional or educational campus building, roughly three stories tall with human figures implied by the stair scale.
- Lighting
- Soft, even daylight casting gentle shadows, highlighting the planar geometry of the facade panels and deep reveals.
- Atmosphere
- Calm, structured, and open, balancing monolithic geometric massing with warm earthy tones.
- Environmental context
- Open suburban or campus setting with a manicured lawn in the foreground and arid mountain ridges visible in the hazy background.
- Spatial experience
- The building sits elevated above a rolling green lawn, engaging the landscape via monumental external staircases flanking a warm-toned recessed base.
- Composition rhythm
- Steady vertical fin spacing on the upper-level gallery contrasts with the layered horizontal bands and diagonal stair cuts.
