"Gap Box"




This project sits at the intersection of campus and natural landscapes, with an eight-story building blending modern design with natural surroundings. The ground level workshop delineates areas for relaxation, gathering, and parking, while outdoor stairs ascend to a second-floor event venue and concession. Above, six floors accommodate a Dome theater and film archive, designed for diverse functions. The architectural facade mirrors the essence of the "gap box," bringing nature indoors while creating a captivating nighttime ambiance, seamlessly blending functionality, aesthetics, and environmental sensitivity. It emerges as a distinguished landmark, unifying campus and nature with finesse.
