Architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen representing the entrance elevation (east-final design) 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 elevation design 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 appeared to be the focal point.
The cross 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. On the detail section (scale 1:20), there are details of the constructional elements from foundations, floors, columns (externally and externally), walls, and all the finishing materials.
