Abstract

The landscape is not simply an element but a microcosm of nature in which static and dynamic processes are balanced. In the process a sense of harmony and wellbeing is achieved by unifying the indoor and outdoor environments. The natural factors that contribute to the balance of any environment such as physiography, climate, vegetation, wildlife, etc. are actually very closely related and interdependent. They individually contribute to the ecology of site. The unification of the environment and the symbiotic relationship of factors conspire to create a place of inspiration and relaxation for people. The following projects explore and utilize the power of nature in offering a refreshing antidote to dull and mundane spaces of extremely important learning environment.
