By correctly seizing a border location and a strong presence towards the riverside, the building’s urban premise is embodied; while establishing a direct relationship with the city through an iconic façade that interacts with the landscape, it also reaches out to the inner campus by involving a different perception of the building’s qualities, both, highlighting the scope of concrete versatility and its ability to contain space without constraints. Simultaneously, the project enhances the university’s urban perimeter by creating better pedestrian spaces and improved accessibility, not limited but upgraded by a free flow from the entrance, which guides to the stretched and sculpted first floor straight to the terrace and viewpoint to the city, through fluent corridors and a diverse array of balconies and lookout points. The project’s strategy to welcome the campus into the building and emphasize scientific innovation is counterpart by the awaken of curiosity and multiple perceptions experienced by any individual inside the building, not only through the atmospheres and elements encountered throughout the visit, but also due to the direct contact with scientific environments, equipment and professionals, approachable from the outside circulation. The building is, therefore, field for multiple activities and synergies that allow beneficial relations between different fields of knowledge alongside with a total freedom towards the academic community and the curious visitor to get in contact science, technology and innovation
