Note(s)Article shows the winning entry in a competition to design a new building on the Belfield campus at University College Dublin. The 2,000m2 building will be a cultural forum providing spaces for teaching, exhibitions and lectures. It draws its architectural inspiration from Chinese temple architecture. It features a south-facing entrance opening onto water, a tiered pavilion structure with a central courtyard, which provides a flow in each direction south-north, east and west.
