The horizontal elements aims to block sun radiation without blocking daylight in summer.
Due to the different altitude angle of sun .. this sun heat gain can be used in winter.

-The vertical elements in the west elevation adapt
with the sun azimuth angle to prevent direct sun
radiation without blocking daylight.

As the concept itself started mainly from the court
the site design came highlighting the court in radial way creating a connection between the inside and the outside.
