The living area for teachers and students is located in the east side of the campus. It is separated from the public teaching area through the landscape axis of the easternmost side - water pedestrian street, so as to maintain the independence between the living area and the teaching area. Meanwhile, through the extension of the public corridor walking system in the teaching area, the living area can be accessible to the teaching area without wind and rain. As the core of the whole living area for teachers and students, the gymnasium is located in the end view of the extension axis of the public corridor. The oval volume is like a drop of water dripping into the ecological campus. The students' dormitory and teachers' dormitory are scattered to both sides with a bar turning volume, like ripples on the water surface, forming a clear and rhythmic campus space in the living area. The canteen and student center are located between the dormitory and the teaching area. They are arranged along the pedestrian street of the water system. The water bank is used to form a dynamic and accessible life service center.

Building Designs
Gymnasium ----is the core dynamic node of the living area for teachers and students. It is facing the main axis of the teaching area from west to East, and it is a powerful end point of the East extension line of the axis. Its north and South are the students' dormitories, and it is the starting point of the vitality of the living area for teachers and students. Its special planning environment requires that the gymnasium not only become an important end point of the main axis, but also must live with the surrounding residents Living environment is harmonious. The design integrates landmark and landscape design techniques, and uses the buried way to control the scale and scale of the gymnasium in terms of height and width, so as to form a good landscape relationship with the surrounding dormitory buildings.

Student dormitories ---- the gymnasium is like a drop of water, which stir up ripples in the campus, forming a free and winding line of dormitories. Dormitories can be divided into three groups: the northwest postgraduate dormitories, which are arranged from the north to the south of four graduate dormitories. The west end of the dormitories is overlapped on the business area of the canteen, which is convenient to enter the catering business space; the natural gray space is formed overhead, Combined with the design of the entrance and public activity space of the commercial street and the bottom floor of the dormitory, the inner street with active leisure atmosphere is formed; the southwest postgraduate dormitory group is composed of three graduate students arranged in the shape of grade, which is still overlapped with the canteen, becoming the continuation of the dynamic space of the campus, as well as the continuation of the commercial inner street; The Northeast undergraduate dormitory group is composed of three undergraduate dormitories arranged from north to south. It is close to the sports venue on the east side of the campus, which is suitable for the large amount of outdoor activities of undergraduates. All dormitory buildings are connected by wind and rain corridor, which can easily reach the canteen.

Canteen ---- mainly provides catering services for teachers and students, as well as retail and service functions. The canteen is set in the north-south direction along the east side of the water pedestrian street. By combining with the shape of the graduate dormitory, three relatively independent building units are formed on the ground. The total quantification is zero, plus the treatment of the concave and convex changes of the building contour, not only enriches the campus space, but also extends the interactive business interface of people, architecture and landscape to the maximum extent, creating a rich one A public place full of vitality and life.
