The main core is a gently sloping area in the centre of the campus planned at the heart of the university complex. The piazza is flanked on three sides by the secretariat, library assembly hall, and connected by pergolas to the faculties of humanities, social sciences and education. The design aimed at creating a closely knit and formal complex of buildings and gardens, rising on terraces, and linked by patios, walks, ramps and gardens into an architectural whole, which would become a purely pedestrian complex of spaces.
