Nanyang Tech's Green Roof!



"(This is the) 5-Storey Teaching Facility at Nanyang Drive for School of Art, Design and Media.

Located at the junction of Nanyang Ave and Nanyang Drive, the new iconic School of Art, Design and Media is situated in a wooded valley, right in the heart of the campus.

The design was conceived as 3 intertwining blocks that are apparent natural extensions of the ground. These blocks interweave to enclose a picturesque plaza and landscape. Major spaces such as the Auditorium, Media Studios, library and art galleries surround this outdoor activity node."

We need more buildings that look like this.

Don't you just want to roll around on it? I don't often think that about buildings.

Outdoor Activity Node? Sign me up!

Yet another good reason to visit Singapore.
