This precedent studies serves as a design reference for the WMPAC.
Geographically the context is very different from the given location in the design brief, ICA shares a similar urban context with WMPAC. It is located at a corner of a junction of the town’s busiest intersection. The studies led to the approach of responding to the context, how the building creates a dialogue for the local community of Richmond and the students interact together with 2 different entrances. 
The main program for this building serves as a contemporary art space for the University, housing forking out gallery spaces, a theatre and a cafe.
