The colors on the surface are red and wathet blue in general, which demonstrate the unrestrained and elegant in the same time that highlighted the distinctive of the building.
The shape of the model can be seen as a triangle. It connect with other buildings skillfully with its projecting computer labs. Moreover, the middle offer extra spaces for students to move and relax while it also accesses to the lower gallery. Therefore, it performs a good circulation in the ground level.
Now, moving to some rooms function introduction and showing
Computer Labs:
There are two computer labs constitute one corner of whole building. It not only form a stabilize structure with its building, but also connect other faculty flexibly.
Gallery:
It located in the lowest part of the building, which connect to the outside environment directly.
Library
Meeting spaces:
The meeting spaces is composed with two parts, one is just a room below the workshop rooms, the other is a open space decorated with some flowers and pool.Office

Relative to my Mashup
Before designing the school, I have read three articles
about how to build a unique and distinctive architecture. It taught me I need to have a clear purpose
before designing. So firstly, I choose vitra fire station plan as my section,
which I think it can be designed into many room as well as can offer a good
connection within the UNSW Campus.
Secondly, I started thinking about how to make my building
integrate into the UNSW environment. I designed my building with many open
spaces, which not only can promote a particularly sense of layering, but
provide a good view of other faculty. What is more, it brings the nature into
the building.
Thirdly, I used exaggerated red colour as the main colour to
improve the distinctive of the building. Some light blue colour insert into
some corner to give an extra feeling. Moreover, the overall building using plenty of materials, which highlight the appearance of the model.
