Architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen representing the final design of the south elevation and the north elevation in scale 1:100. The architect used a technique to render this elevation, mainly walls with horizonal lines leaving the window glasses as plain transparent areas. He also used Zip-A-Tone for window shadings. The same technique has been used to make the trees transparent figures to show the architectural elements behind them. The design of both elevation is based on the idea of solid and transparent between ground floor and upper floor giving the sense of lifting the upper floor by the cylinder columns, while the central glass dome appears to be the focal point.
The long section (scale 1:100) shows the structural system and constructional elements supporting the different indoor spaces and the variety of shapes relating to the functions of those spaces. The architect used figures to show the scale of the school building in relationship to people.

A free hand architectural sketch on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen and coloured markers related to the initial study of the school project, illustrating:

• the zoning concept showing the connection between series of events (learning spaces, home bases) linked with the commercial spaces and special events,
• corridor concept emphasis on spaces not on corridor,
• spaces for events located in different arrangements according to the central circulation route,
• street concept developed to create most open arrangement,
• perspective effects caused by different shapes of the corridor ceiling and how they could make the "mentally handicapped" children even more frightening,
• sectional possibilities relating to the tenements on the opposite side of the street,
• the idea of designing a building as a street to "give practice in coping with external environment, only inside".
