Description
My proposal for Dancing Tree University provides an additional building for students to apply the knowledge gathered in Y2E2 classrooms to hands-on designs and interactive discussions on every floor. Although the design is quite consistent with the original features in Y2E2, I decided to creatively design the roof and add diversify the walls to promote sustainable and modern architectural practices. On the first level of the adjacent building, there is an outdoor cafe for students, faculty, and visitors to relax, chat, or brainstorm ideas with pastries and coffee from the indoor cafe. Indoors, there collaborative spaces for meeting and sketching out new solutions. The second floor features more “makers” spaces including drafting tables, standing desks, and chalk boards on various walls. Finally, the third floor is an adaptable place dedicated to rotating student exhibits. There is a lone lectern available for students to either present an idea or introduce an exhibit for visitors.
