How much building per acre

Dividing built-up area by site area shows the character of a Campus: an urban teaching block packs over 17,000 m² onto each acre, while open University Campuses keep a few hundred, leaving room for landscape and growth.

Learning spaces in numbers

Approach

How we plan a Campus

  1. 01

    Barrier-free by design

    Ramps, wayfinding, tactile routes and accessible rooms are part of the plan from the first sketch, not added later.

    Dr. Shakuntala Misra National Rehabilitation UniversityExampleDr. Shakuntala Misra National Rehabilitation UniversityNational Award for barrier-free infrastructure, 2014
  2. 02

    Connected and shaded

    Buildings are grouped around plazas and courts and joined by covered corridors, so students move between them in the shade.

    Tribhuvan Sahkari UniversityExampleTribhuvan Sahkari UniversityAcademic, faculty, administration and Library buildings joined by a covered corridor
  3. 03

    Learning in the landscape

    Residential Campuses are set into their terrain and trees, with buildings kept low around green courts.

    Built for speed

    Where a Campus needs space quickly, composite steel structures shorten construction and keep disruption on a working Campus to a minimum.

    Partners over many phases

    Many institutions return to us as they grow, phase after phase.
