My theory aims to create architecture that can utilize the environment: "A piece of architecture should utilize surrounding elements like sunlight, heat, wind and vegetation to connect human occupying in a space to the environment. Since these elements are not constant, architecture need to transform to adapt to the changing of nature." To bring natural lights into the spaces inside the building, most part of the builiding is wrapped with glass. People using the space inside are also able to have access to the views of the garden and nature around them. With the library treading through the three parts of building, it acts as a connection between them bringing people to different spaces. The two moving elements aim to manipulate sunlight to the architecture. One acts as a blind for the library, controlling the amount and intensity of sunlight coming into the space. The second element act as a shade against natural weather such as sunlight, wind, rain... but ususally open up so that the building can have rooftop gardens for students and staff of the school to relax and hold socializing events.

Theory: A piece of architecture should utilize surrounding elements like sunlight, heat, wind and vegetation to connect human occupying in a space to the evironment. Since these elements are not constant, architecture need to transform to adapt to the changing of nature.
