RENDERING OF BUILDING
The proposal was for a network of discussion centers throughout the country that would provide a forum for local meetings as well as a nationwide virtual dialogue. Through the building systems described in this proposal, new fabrication techniques combined with traditional building methods with enough flexibility that each community could design and build its own discussion center to suit its individual needs. This rendering imagined the main center between Thimphu and Paro, which would act as a hub for learning and discussion, including classrooms, library, media center, auditorium, and informal discussion areas.
