Strathclyde University's new graduation hall: Elevations, and section

Architectural drawing on tracing paper consisting of the elevation of the new hall from the Cathedral Square façade, and from the west elevation, all in scale 1:200. The Cathedral square elevation shows the new hall from Castle Street presenting the external view of the new hall with Barony Hall and how the new architectural style differs from the traditional building style. There are no indications about the material types used within the new design. The main idea of the new hall is in its building height which did not dominant the skyline of the campus building and Barony Hall which is still standing to be the focal point of the site. The cross section shows the main hall and its functional spaces in its vertical dimension with the structural elements of the interior columns and the central skylight.
