Staff offices and meeting room in the left hand side of the building which near the city side entrance, Staff is in the second level of the building, connected with the lecture room. Ground floor where under the staff office have a large space for meetings, following stair to the upper level there is a platform for meeting as well.

Lecture room is in the middle of the main building, you could get in from both side of the lecture room or second level.

In the water side of the building, library is a small building separate with main block, circulation in library is amazing=) it has a small platform in second level, students could have meeting there. in the right hand side of the library is gallery, big opening of the gallery space offer a good view for people, which you can see the other side of harbour, landscape is amazing. Architectural folly is in the other side of the harbour, you can go there by elevators. Gallery have a 9 meters ceilings, good for event and exhibitions.

The triangle grids facade is facing north, which can get enough sunshine, especially for Dunedin winter. some of the triangle grids are not structured with glass, it can give people a more privacy space.
Under the library and gallery , there is studio, workshop and computer lab, you can only go there by student elevator. Under the studio room, there is a platform touching water space. Students could finding fun from here.


The bridge not only a architecture school, it offer a public life into the harbour, which give a opportunity to Dunedin citizen to experience the harbour life.

EXP 2 THE MONUMENT

Below are 5 images of final monuments in the terrain. 
Two concepts I chosen : "Architecture that lets me in peace."--- Peter Zumthor
and "Space which is spiritually uplifting."---Filipo Brunelleschi.

Zumthor brings his buildings a beautiful silence word. Such as Therme Vals, the building has a good relationship to its natural surrounding. He insisted on using locally quarried stone. when people stay inner space of his building, it just like listen to the nature, peacefully. 
For Brunelleschi, his building has a really mathematical gothic style, and supreme use of geometry. But most important, his building suggest a kind of spiritual world. 


Firstly i consider about the relationship between two architects then I built the monuments on a isolated, high elevation island where can looking out to the snow mountain.  trees and bamboo surrounded two monuments. Theres a waterfall under Zumthor`s monument which leads to a pool.  All these natural elements suggest peace.  
I`m using dark color and texture on Zumthor`s monument but Brunelleschi`s in Light white color which let it looked like a sculpture. There`s a walk way connect two monuments( meeting point) ,which I applied red painted texture. People can choose walk on it or walk through from inside tunnel.

Filipo Brunelleschi`s monument, white facade and geometry space suggest a kind of spiritual uplifting.
