5 Images Captured


The overall view of the architecture and the folly in its environment shows the integration of the buildings and landscape.


The folly  which has the circulation space with the view of surroundings and is located on the valley floor and the  elevator for students as shown is located on the slope.


The two main parts of the architecture is highlighted with different colors of lighting system during night time.


The main circulation space, the walking path and one of the main building can be seen.


Another main building with the lighting and the access to the walking slop is shown during night time.

The Connection between the Theory and the architecture

The Deign of this architecture emphasizes on the integration with the landscape and environment through letting the valley become a part of architecture. Apart from that, a large-spanned walking path shows the importance of an public circulation space for a school which provides an opportunity to have a view of the environment when meandering.Furthermore, different materials are used such as wood, stone and tiles which expressing the connection between details and the whole building form.

Mashup Articles



The architecture is of equal importance to the major spaces through these spaces are designed only for movement and must therefore be designed to be bathed in a natural light. Apart from that, the integration of landscape ecology and landscape architecture is emphasized from its application of rational and intuitive thinking of the interaction of landscape pattern and ecological process over varied scales of space and time with explicit inclusion of the activities and values of humans. Furthermore, circulation spaces act as walk ability of architecture is of significance in the arrangement of spatial places with different function.  Details are integrated with the overall project and structure, enclosure, and material development are coordinated with the overall form. Moreover,the integration can be seen from the architecture’s connection to the surroundings and the exploration for architectural balance and direction according to the clients.
