An aerial precedent for concentric circular campus architecture, utilizing vertical louvers and stepped circular roof terraces to organize a dense office or research park.
- What we like about this project
- The central circular courtyard roof doubles as a large flat skylight illuminating the interior core.

- Geometry
- Concentric circular volumes stepping down in height toward a central glazed atrium or skylight, surrounded by curvilinear hardscape and ring-shaped perimeter walls.
- Facade system
- Vertical metallic or concrete louvers forming a double-skin shading layer around curved glass walls.
- Structural guess
- Reinforced concrete frame with radial column grids and curved slab edges.
- Spatial scale
- Large-scale multi-story circular campus building set within an expansive landscaped urban plaza.
- Lighting
- Direct daylight casting crisp shadows from the vertical louvers and circular roof edges, highlighting the concentric rings.
- Atmosphere
- Ordered and harmonious, emphasizing smooth circular geometry amidst urban infrastructure.
- Environmental context
- Urban office park setting with linear roads, parking lots, patterned plazas, and scattered green tree islands.
- Spatial experience
- The layered circular rings draw the eye inward toward a central core, while exterior curved terraces offer tiered outdoor vantage points overlooking the surrounding plaza.
- Composition rhythm
- Radial vertical fins create a steady circumferential rhythm around each ring of the building envelope.
