Administration
Peizheng College - China
2000
This four-story administration building was originally designed to house the large administration staff, as well as offices for professors when the student population was under five thousand. To meet the expectations of Peizheng College that the Administration Building be prominent on campus, I convinced the administration to build the building on top of the hill, rather than razing the hill, so it may be seen from afar.
The offices inside the Administration Building are designed for 6-8 professors to share - standard practice in China. Natural light is introduced from the corridors and the windows to illuminate the office and create more balanced lighting. Natural lighting is introduced to the interior corridors by clerestory windows.
