College of Architecture and Landscape Architecture
As the building is largely constructed from precast concrete, a lighting vocabulary is created to be easily mounted and applied. Most of the fixtures used are surface mounted and diffuse, using concrete as a reflector. In the auditorium, warmer tones emphasize wooden surfaces.
