Our brief for this project was to design and plan the site in regards to the existing institutional structures. The master planning for this particular project emerged as a task for us but also pushed us to create the KL University that stands today.

Through our design process we created a space with a central axis in the site as a road that defines various zones and segregate public and private places. This not only allows for easy access but also lets the user experience nature along with built environment.

Various departmental blocks like Architecture and Planning block, Skill Development Centre, Research and Development block, sports complex have been planned strategically along with residential blocks for accommodation of students and visiting faculty.

The structures have an interesting play of materials and details with contrast of heavy and light elements such as terracotta tiles and glass to balance the heaviness of concrete. Play of facade was achieved by installing fins on windows that merges with the materials creating an innovative design.
