The concept is to design space as a “Green Catalyst,” where an inspiring landscape environment setting can enhance creativity, facilitate social interaction, collaboration, and the opportunity to generate new ideas, creativity, and innovation. These landscape spaces create sanctuaries for the congregation, recreation, imagination, and quiet contemplation. The concept of this project was to “bring the inside out"- by reconnecting the interior spaces of the building to the exterior while successfully knitting the site into the existing campus fabric. Different spaces are layered to create these transitional spaces, and the transitional spaces of ‘passage’ will adjust people’s moods while they move through these spaces and create visual surprises. Each space has its own individual character, where vegetation plays a leading role. Sufficient greenery is achieved with green pockets allocated along the corridors, especially in front of the building doors, to encourage people to go out and spend outdoor. Using tropical forest species, the form and flow of the university expresses a sophisticated kind of harmony with the elements, mirroring what is experienced in our tropical rainforests, with different ranges of canopy layers, overlapping branches and leaves of the trees, and a tangled mix of vegetation. The usage of brick as a warm natural material at the ground flooring gives a unique character to the place. Brick is a local material that is typically low-maintenance and environmentally friendly since it blends well with the surroundings. The greenery at the campus will cool the environment, provide shading, reduce air temperature, and improve air quality. The landscape embraces sustainable features to create an ecosystem. They are natural habitats for birds and other small animals. The environment provides a flourishing habitat for fauna and flora. The greenery at the campus cools the environment, provides shading, reduces air temperature, and improves air quality.
