being considered as a
general style in the
facades to show a clear
architectural language
for user experience.

minimum façade treatments to preserve the
building as a landmark in the overall context.

43. Design Concept
-Using an architectural language by implementing specific elements in the
buildings, makes them all connected as one entity without a boring repetition.
-The used elements are illustrated geometric forms that can be constructed
without construction complications.
-Simple form is required as the building is identified by its mass combined with
minimal geometric elements.

44. ARCHITECTURE ELEMENTS
-The below architectural elements define the minimalistic treatments in the
façade. Having these elements combined with the mass itself create a uniform
architectural design as well as a uniform identity for the university.
