The design of buildings is extremely important in a\u00a0campus context. Buildings play a critical role in creating a\u00a0welcoming, accessible, and safe environment by providing\u00a0a face and eyes on the public realm. Essentially, there\u00a0should be no back condition to a building, especially\u00a0where there are few service laneways. This means that\u00a0the service side of buildings must also be aesthetically\u00a0pleasing and pedestrian friendly, with windows, door\u00a0access points, and landscaping. Even laneways have to\u00a0function as contributing components of the public realm\u00a0and pedestrian circulation.<\/p>\n

Buildings along the edge should reflect the pulse of the\u00a0Campus. Building frontages should be designed to be\u00a0animated, transparent, and engaging to the community.\u00a0These buildings should reflect the Campus\u2019 pedagogical\u00a0function and internal activity such as learning labs, social\u00a0gathering spaces, gallery and recreational space. They\u00a0should also be the locations for community gathering\u00a0spaces that are visibly and physically accessible from the\u00a0Campus\u2019 periphery.<\/p>\n
