On a narrow site in the most central corner of the campus, the New School of Architecture will be built: A rounded glass and deep red Corten steel building; six floors including a sunken garden and a roof terrace. Following the logic of the free campus layout that encourages movement, this project wants to offer new ways and places rather than filling out the block. With its rounded contour the school building maintains the character of the court yard as a continuous space. At street level a double height space, the atelier and exhibition area, will constitute the central axis straight through the building. The exterior relates to the existing buildings of dark red brick at the KTH Campus. Construction is in-situ cast concrete with load bearing parts visible as freely placed fields in the facade.
