12 Jade Throughout the buidling large gathering spaces are in the color jade; center court, recreational area, grand staircase and ramp. However the ceiling is also jade, which I believe more than defining an area, it allows the entire interior space to be seen as a place for wisdom, balance and peace. This shade of green while remaining neutral also brings the exterior into the interior space.

14 Conclusion The project was intended to become a unique welcoming center, where students wanted to spend their time. Quickly the Tube became appealing for them to be around and, it no longer kept them distant. The choice of materials made a tremendous impact on how the color palette was reflected throughout the space. And while color defined the environment it also changed the experience of each individual.
