� Transparency and Visual Connectivity<br />
The master plan emphasizes physical and visual connections between indoor and<br />
outdoor environments. Facades are articulated with transparent materials, while<br />
circulation is brought to the edges of buildings. Terraces and student life programs<br />
are strategically situated along southern facades to capture sunlight, activate<br />
building edges, and negotiate the transition between the indoor and outdoor<br />
spaces.<br />
