Flexible and dynamic QR code inspired urban layout that allows many future add-ons and moderations, will put "Aarhus K quartier" and The New School of Architecture onto a world architecture map, side by side to other city icons, like The Aros Museum, Aarhus City Hall, Dokk1 Library and Iceberg housing. To kindly provoke the all-white exterior image of the Iceberg housing, we’re proposing the all-black brick QRtier.

To truly "walk the talk" and ground The New School of Architecture in the values and teaching methods AAA people believe in, we propose to use the new school building "as a silent educator". The building itself becomes part of the learning process, encouraging students to observe, explore, and learn directly from their physical environment.

By using your smart phone, you will be able to read the structure and the section of the load bearing walls, understand the installations that are passing above your head, you will know from which material your working desk is made of, where it comes from, etc.

The main central hall will also have a QR code black boxy furniture, composed of many different materials which will expose students to various tactile experiences in their routine.
