A set of design studies examines the ways in which the ongoing, routine activities of an educational institution may inter act with a variety of ceremonial public gathering events related to its curriculum, through the shared physical presence of its building facility. An existing music school is analyzed to provide a source for introductory design in formation. Concurrently, some similar buildings are examined to facilitate generalized analytic observations. The above two steps form a foundation for a schematic design exercise intended as a vehicle to illuminate some of their possible formal consequences. Graphic documentations include fragments or design process steps and the resulting schematic design proposal.
