McGill University
Above we can see a model of the Lorne M Trottoir building at McGill University, which houses the new classes for information technologies. This building was design with acedemia and technology in mind and the exterior structure shown above acts as a light filter, a common feature among technology buildings where heat and light are important environmental factors.
Here we see the othe new computer sciences and technologies building at McGill University. The entrance shown above acts as a beacon signaling the connection between the interior lobby and the exterior courtyard. The exterior is panelled with a cross-cross pattern of structural elements and aluminum panels, creating a lively exterior that still maintains the cold hardness of metal and technology.
