This project calls for a new gateway building as the re-development of International House, an on-campus student accommodation. The design actively exists as a unique and iconic building to the Campus. Focusing on the user experience, the proposal includes various public and private spaces throughout the building. It aims to encourage interactions between occupants, between the public and the university, and between humans and nature. Green spaces are designed throughout the building, both horizontally and vertically, to act as noise buffers for the residents while responding to the context.

Making the International House iconic, these roof gardens also reduce the pressure of the volume on the Southern space of the site by dividing the tower into three-parts.
