Architectural drawing on tracing paper using Rotring black ink pen representing the upper floor plan (final design) in scale 1:100. It shows how the architect translated his initial strategy into the final design. The upper floor plan includes the indoor spaces (some are in double volume like the viewing space), vertical circulation, and other services. It also shows the main structural elements: cylinder columns, and load bearing walls. The upper floor comes with the full details of the indoor spaces with their furniture and the outdoor spaces and their relationships with the exterior elevations. Here, the architect names these spaces according to the pupils ages: 3-8 years, 8-12 years, 12-15 years, and 15-16 years. This floor walls are designed as semi-circular, both the exterior and the interior walls.
