Westwood is located in the historical intersection between Route 128 and the railway. The existing campuses around the site have formed a series of clusters and framed a loop, which might have great potential to make a synergy with inter-municipal development. Therefore, the project tries to provide several circulations that connect these clusters which is beneficial to support the development of the loop. Circulations are overlapped with bands and create various intersections, which not only generate the diversity of space and forms but also provide more possibility and flexibility for further development.
