Bridging the Campus redefines Chien Kung Senior High School as an open learning commons. A buried historic watercourse shifts the four-story building to one side, shaping its triangular form and releasing ground for the reoriented athletic field. A landscape platform negotiates level changes, while a skybridge extends the campus axis to reconnect old and new buildings. Corridors, terraces, stairs and semi-outdoor spaces extend learning beyond classrooms and encourage informal exchange.
