kdA’s master plan for UK’s Dulwich College’s new campus in the United Arab Emirates responds to a vibrant cultural setting and an environment that is simultaneously organized and organic. Dulwich College, Saadiyat Island will be a living instrument that teaches respect for the land, creates a balanced educational, social, cultural, and physical program, and develops a pervasive learning environment.

This will be a place for pupils to be ed­u­cated holis­ti­cally through not only the pro­gram and cur­ricu­lum of the school but also through a se­ries of linked learn­ing en­vi­ron­ments that rep­re­sent a net­work of new land­scapes con­nect­ing Dul­wich Col­lege, Saadiyat Is­land to Asia, Lon­don and be­yond.

The five precincts are con­nected by the con­tin­u­ous and in­ter­lock­ing land­scape. The palm grove in the res­i­den­tial precinct gives way to the aca­cia wood­land that stretches across the cam­pus to the cen­tral square, while a wild un­du­lat­ing canopy of trees blends into the wood­land floats above the early years school. In both the ju­nior school and se­nior school the land­scape be­comes more or­ga­nized and quiet in scale, re­flect­ing the Col­lege’s cur­ricu­lum. The per­form­ing arts and recre­ation precincts are the gate­way from the Col­lege to the com­mu­nity and the world, al­low­ing the world to be ab­sorbed by the Col­lege.
