Use the provided building image as the base reference. STRICT RULE: Preserve the original building massing and proportions as the main front anchor. --- GOAL: Transform the building into a larger contemporary Saudi architectural educational complex with a central open courtyard. The design should follow the language of modern Saudi architecture clean, minimal, abstracted from tradition — NOT traditional replication. --- TRANSFORMATION: - Extend the building horizontally and backward - Form a U-shaped or semi-closed layout around a central courtyard - Keep the original building as the front anchor - Create a central open courtyard: • clearly visible from above • surrounded by building masses • minimal and clean --- ARCHITECTURAL LANGUAGE: - Replace traditional elements with contemporary interpretation: • use vertical fins instead of heavy rawasheen • use perforated screens abstract geometric patterns • clean rectangular openings - Maintain: • light plaster walls • strong solid vs void composition • deep window recesses --- FACADE: - clean and minimal - no heavy ornamentation - subtle references to Saudi identity through patterns and shading - consistent rhythm across all wings --- FUNCTION: - classrooms arranged around courtyard - internal corridors overlooking courtyard - main entrance remains at front - add 2–3 additional simple entrances --- COURTYARD: - open to sky - minimal landscape - clean paving - optional light shading structures thin pergola or frames --- STYLE: - contemporary Saudi architecture - minimal, elegant, refined - no traditional heavy detailing - no decorative clutter --- LIGHTING: - soft natural daylight - clean shadows - high clarity --- IMPORTANT: - do not turn it into traditional Hijazi style - do not add heavy wooden details - keep it modern, abstract, and architectural. the new extensions must look like they were designed by the same architect using the same facade system and pattern
