On Foot- NUS UTown

Went to UTown in NUS to attend BES6SM yesterday. Lucky I brought my camera. Same rules apply, all these are raw images.

This was taken at the entrance of UTown, outside the school shuttle service stop.

Education Resource Centre, a nice way of saying lecture halls and study areas.

Administrative(?) building. They used creeper plants to provide a green shade, and the reason why it looks familiar because you can see it on the highway

Inside the ERC, taken from the 2nd floor. The ERC resembles a donut (space in the middle) and trees were planted to cover up the space inside. Naturally it makes it windy and yet quiet at the same time

Another tree in the compound. They built an entire round study table area under the tree for students to use.

Another tree, taking up more space in the donut hole

You can see the arrangement of the stairs and roof from this angle. Some part of the 2nd floor is sheltered by the open air roof.

A very poor attempt at tilt shift photography. Wanted to make the tables and chairs look miniature, just that it is kind a hard to visualize that.

I wanted to show that there is a bridge in the middle of the donut that cuts between 2 trees. Hope it's clear from here

The only shot I'm happy with. First floor of the ERC, Appears quiet and serene, and straight out of a dream.

Open roof extended from the first floor. It's not very clear, but they planted grass on the roof. It's also where Starbucks is.

Outside the Ngee Ann Kongsi auditorium. The Ngee Ann Kongsi sports hall is in the SST.

 

The buildings on the right are actually residences where students can live on campus. And they look like HDBs. It will be really awesome if I can live there in the future.

Student Plaza center. NUS seems like a pretty nice place to me

Outside the NUS shuttle bus stop. You can actually run bus lines inside the school. And the best part is that all the NUS shuttle services are free:)

I always wondered which people have their classes here.. REALLY ENVY THEM. Can I join you?

Another Building with glass and concrete. I wonder which faculty is that. Very tempted to go as well.

There's a NUS museum, but I don't know which it is.

A closer look at the Green pillars. They plant vines at the bottom of the support structure, and just let the plant grow as upwards as it likes.

Slightly more vertical this time, and I can see that there is an open roof top garden

 Student plaza about 2+ on a Saturday. There's a high roof over the plaza, so it is both sheltered and airy at the same time

There's a Cheers, a Subway and a Fish and Co Express.

I noticed how the glass panels were formed to look like woven paths.

Tired of writing. Look and Enjoy
