The final and perhaps most significant locking of the splintered form is through the obscured spatial shaft of the campus, envisioned by Leslie Wilkinson, the University’s first Professor of Architecture, that runs from deep within the campus through built form and open space. It runs through the project and extends out and released into the park and city beyond to create a broad opening of the campus.
It is at this moment – where the wide public steps fold the ground of the podium to meet the park – that the splintered forms of the Law Faculty building are separate and connected only by a thin glass bridge, or window: the informal meeting place of students and teachers, suspended at this threshold of city and campus.
