inspired by the author of Space, Time and Architecture (1941), which often thought to be considered the ghostwriter of the modern movement. In his writings, he brought its different tendencies together under the banner of the new space-time concept, which is one of the key ideas to the design of this building and the purpose to its moving elements. 
The building is positioned to connect the square house and the new material science building.

Level one at the student learning center, also place of the first moving element.
level 2 and 3 of the student learning center, holds student break out space and meeting space accompanied with tube-shaped sleeping/resting booth.  

The opened space on the second floor is a break-out space for students to enjoy the outside dining experience. 
Also part of the Dining area, where the students are provided simple utilities such as sinks and microwaves so they can heat up their lunch. 
Computer labs enable students to learn more effectively in this new era of technology.  
lecture theater is still an important medium to traditional teaching, though the students will mainly be watching lecture recordings online,
