The project aims to give typical office workers the opportunity to acquire new knowledge and skills outside of their field of expertise and provide spaces of socialization and communication, especially in a post-pandemic era. Office work, typically task-based, short term, and repetitive has been and is limiting a vast number of individuals to further their knowledge, gain new experience, or have access to information outside of their scope of work.
The Vertical Educational Campus set in Leadenhall aimed at white collar population of City of London provides a range of learning spaces;** Communal, Multipurpose, and Individual learning** around a series of large communal voids accommodating circulation, communication and transitional spaces, currently confined to vertical lifts circulation and residual spaces in between office desk layout.
A hybrid tensigrity system of tension and compression components able to grow in all three axes enables not only hanging circulation spaces but variety of volumes inside, in-between and outside the original volume of the building hoping to foster more collaboration, face-to-face communication, collaboration and chance-encounters.
