Iraqi University Accommodation
The concept scheme is designed to adapt to each specific site and draw on the local architecture and culture of its immediate context. The individual buildings can be rotated around their circulation cores to fit into an existing district's street layout or within campus style parkland settings. The facades will draw on local influences particularly for environmental sun shading techniques such as fretted screens, to create layers of shade. The elevations we have shown are only to give an indication, as each building's design will respond to each site.
