Name :  Omar Al-Mukhtar University Faculty Extension Project

Location : Bayda, Libya

Date : 2013

Three new lecture facilities were requested to be designed in the campus of Omar Al-Mukhtar University. Project required independent entrance for each lecture hall with its own office space for teaching staff and individual storage areas. A road passing in the middle of the project site did not permit three lecture halls to be united to one building. To save costs two lecture halls were connected, each with its own uniqe entrance and sharing facilities inside. Architectural featuers of the third building complemented the other two so that all of the buildings had similar language yet different designs. A great emphasis was laid upon the connecting areas of the buildings forming a student plaza with adequate shade and water features for hot climates.
