Site model showing relationship to river dee
Historical precedent: the castle keep, formal gathering space
Site Plan: buildings cluster around the pre-existing landscape creating external viewing spaces towards the river dee. The taller concrete towers "defend" the entrance to the semi private gardens; whilst the timber clad structures that flank the towers create a sense of domesticity and subtly blend into the line of trees.
Historical Precedent: The Broch- Circulation for the students takes place around the central atrium, creating opportunities for views below into the entrance space.
