Concerning Ydyo

Gudjon Thor Erlendsson, the lead designer of the winning architecture design Ydyo explains “The design challenges the archetypical classroom building as a vertical extrusion with landscape spaces limited to the ground floor level. The steep site and adjacency to existing building offered opportunities for change. The context and function lead to a diagrammatic approach of a morphed and entwined concept that is used in organising and integrating the various functions, inside and outside. From this emerges a form that rises from a splayed configuration towards an elemental internal organisation at the top. Tectonic and formal solutions are derived from local context.” Learn more about this design at: https://competition.adesignaward.com/design.php?ID=47981
