Though to this day not much is known about the architectural history of the building, the design bears a striking resemblance to Le Corbusier’s Villa Savoye, an example of early modern European architecture. The most impressive aspect of the building is the main entrance. Supporting the hovering volume of second floor with multiple vertical columns and aided by a lightweight concrete roof, the entrance is a semi-outdoor space with an integrated garden for students to socialize and relax. The building as a whole hosts many departments, from languages to mathematics, though they have their own separate entrances, they are linked by corridors, interlocking spaces and staircases.
