Key Design Features of the New ITE HQ & CC @AMK
(A)
Distinctive Image and Identity
The cohesive design conveys the Headquarters’ corporate identity and its central
unifying role for the three Colleges under the “One ITE System, Three Colleges’”
Governance and Education Model. At the same time, the design integrates
College Central into the development, giving it its own distinctive identity as “A
College of Creativity and Innovation” and a vibrant place for learning innovation
and education excellence.
(B)
School Niche & Identity
Iconic individual gateways are created to the four Schools to represent each
School’s distinct identity and unique set of niche strengths. Each School’s
gateway is fronted by their characteristic Training Facilities and School Project
Displays.
(C)
IZ@Central - The Inspiration Zone
The Inspiration Zone along the spine of the College is a one-stop ’Visitor
Attraction’ that showcases the College’s unique identity and strengths. This is a
multi-disciplinary training, innovation and project zone supported by industryauthentic facilities and professional environment for student and staff
development.
(D)
Authentic Learning Environment
The training laboratories and workshops are designed to simulate real industry
workflows and actual industry settings within the College for realistic hands-on
training and development of staff and students.
(E)
Connectivity & Interactivity
Individual blocks are linked with a network of interconnecting walkways to reduce
vertical movement. There is connectivity along the showcase belt and the fourthstorey, student-oriented, mid-level promenade.
The mid-level promenade provides alternative interaction areas and gateways to
key common staff and student facilities such as the Library, Cafeteria, Centre for
Music & The Arts and Sports Centre.
(F)
Flexible and Scalable Design
The Project adopts a modular approach to the sizing and fitting of all
labs/workshops and other training facilities as well as their internal layouts, to
allow for quick alterations with little adjustment to the architectural, structural as
well as mechanical and electrical (M&E) configurations. This will allow quick
turnover of training facilities in response to rapid changes in training needs to
meet industry requirements.
(G)
Green Building Design
The development integrates a green building design and its green features allow:
• Energy Savings in Operating Costs
•
•
Improved Functionality and Better Environment for End Users
Enhanced Awareness and Provision of Environmental Education for Staff and
Students
Cost Effectiveness in Maintenance and ‘Life-cycle’ Considerations
•
In addition, the complex has Asia’s largest green wall. Approximately 5,300 sq
metres of greenery adorn the façade of the complex, offering UV protection,
substantially reducing ambient temperature and keeping building interiors cool.
