架构师提供的文本描述。新的校园设计标志着高度的联系。

Text description provided by the architects. The new campus design signifies a highly linked & connected institution. It looks into the compact urban condition of Hong Kong itself for direct inspiration and epitomizes a miniature city, dense and connected. The spatial organization maximizes density by stacking multiple slab blocks of different programs vertically on top of each other over a podium of communal activities, including a number of lecture theatres and a gymnasium. A folded vertical Student Boulevard rises to form a 3-dimensional street network in the air that weaves and binds the different blocks and levels into a connected whole. From the Boulevard, students can gain free access to a series of sky gardens and roof decks of various scales on different levels: turfed green lawn sloping towards the sea, student plaza & mini café etc., all afforded with magnificent sea views and lively atmosphere.

这些建筑物的脚印只限于现有地基的脚印，以尽量减少不必要的改动。需要更大脚印的项目，如教室和图书馆，被暂停在主楼板上，以弥补所需的楼面面积。在建筑上，图书馆和学生会被改建成桥梁，把东西两块板子连接成一个标志性的通道。上层的教室向外倾斜，形成一个倾斜的墙作为反射面，将阳光引导到室内走廊，并使自然通风达到较低的水平。

The footprints of the buildings are restricted to that of the existing foundations to minimize unnecessary modification. Programs requiring larger footprints such as the classrooms and libraries are suspended out from the main slab blocks to make up for the required floor area. Architecturally, the library and the student union are remodeled as bridges that connect the east and west slab blocks into an iconic gateway. The classrooms on the upper floors are tapered outwards, creating a sloping wall as a reflector to redirect sunlight to the interior corridor and allow natural ventilation to reach the lower levels.

建筑物的立面反映了复杂地段的真实表现。形式上，从板块延伸出来的悬臂和桥梁就像树冠一样，象征着绿色树冠下原始的学习空间。其构图和结构也与中国书法的内在精神相呼应，即立面上的实与空的美平衡。新校园的建立，实质上意味着要创造一个新的性格：一个新的雏形，将为后代形成新知识的根源。

The elevation of the building reflects an authentic expression of its complex section. Formally, the cantilevers and bridges extending from the slab blocks resemble the image of a tree crown and symbolize the primitive learning space under the shade of the green canopy. Its composition and construction also resemble the inherent spirit of Chinese Calligraphy, namely the beautiful balance of solid and void in the elevation. The erection of the new campus in essence alludes to the creation of a new character: a new rudiment that would form the root of new knowledge for the generations to come.
