OUTSIDE THE WALL
Escape places
In rapidly developing cities, urban standards and quality of life do not develop at the same time. It has been observed that the desire to spend time in the green areas in the city in order to escape from the busyness of the city in the urbanites working under intense stress as a result of modern life. It was concluded that it was used as an escape place. Toronto's Birchcliff neighborhood has become a summer village for the residents of Toronto due to its proximity to the city center, but has become an escape for the urbanites. On the other hand, the uniform education and lifestyle in the school pushes students to run away from school. This project creates a contrast for school students; students try to run away from school, not school. At the same time, the school hosts an urban green space for both the residents of Toronto and students. While the design consists of educational areas and workshops at the ground level, the green shell on the top includes recreation areas with various functions for the urbanites and students. it is starting to become a new urban square by being included in the pavement.
