OCAD U: Sharp Centre for Design (Will Alsop) COMPLETE

The Sharp Centre's classrooms are conventional spaces that break no new ground, but the external form of the building is a fine advertisment for the subject matter that is taught in them - excellence in design, and visual delight as a medium of communication.
 
I've seen the renders for what OCAD wants to do to 100 McCaul and their building on Richmond and they look really neat!

They want to put a digital screen beneath the Alsop block that would be great to see - but I doubt the people across the street would appreciate it.
 
The building is already a huge pixillated canvas promoting the College, so why not? Nicholas and Sheila Pye's films - The Paper Wall, for instance - might be a good starting point.
