The proposed design for OCADU's Satellite campus aims to foster interdisciplinary connections and maximize natural light. Divided into three masses - Digital 2D, Hands-on 3D, and Both 2D & 3D - with interconnected spaces and a central gallery. The basement houses workshops and an auditorium. Upper floors prioritize study spaces, classrooms, studios, and offices, with terraces on the fourth floor. Facades feature brick, curtain walls, and a double skin for light control.

The building is primarily made of steel, featuring open-web steel joists that connect three distinct masses, each serving a different function. This arrangement influences the systems, of which four are proposed, but only three are detailed. The west facade has a regular brick wall with limited window openings for summer shading. The north facade showcases a unique double brick system, while the east wall features a second skin against a curtain wall that creates shadows and reduces light. The un fourth system is a double-skin facade on the south side, promoting ventilation and shading.
