The new rooftop addition of the Technical College of Construction and Design offers 1650 m2 of additional usable area for classrooms, CAD labs and recreational spaces. 26 shed skylights, oriented north by northwest, span across the entire roof area of the four-storey existing structure built in 1974. This achieves providing areas deep within the 26 m wide floor plans with ample daylight while, at the same time, preventing overheating. The short 2.50 m shed intervals allow distributing daylight homogeneously within the interiors.
