The plan offers flexibility of multiple orientations, as well as views on the playground and heart block. The student housing is very compact (9 stories) and arranged so as not to shade on the playground. Also all the units are oriented east and west and extended by a small outdoor space decorated with perforated metal panels, fixed and sliding.
