Architecture of Mereth Kahn 11

Ersta 15, 229 AC. Happy New Year, Surakosans!

Documentary and interview elements produced by The Architectural Media Collective of Surakosai.


The Castle was built first, along with the medical center, since these would house important administration, classrooms, and workshops. Mereth's whimsical use of a castle turret and crenellations caused some stir in the conservative architectural world of Surakosai, but was eventually accepted as a gesture of homage to the real castle which it replaced.


The residence halls were adapted from luxury resort hotels which the Kahn family firm had designed some years ago. The interiors, though, were completely re-designed to accommodate nouetically gifted guests. Mereth used his knowledge of nouetic technology to ensure psychic privacy for each room and suite. These residences proved to be an important factor in attracting students and working guests to the Surakosai Institute.
