Discover
The school is one of the city’s major buildings – no one misses our school or confuses it with any other. The school should be like play-doh, which everyone can shape to suit them. The priority for us was clarity and visual connection. Therefore, the building may seem like a living organism or an open book. The outcome results from a new and unique perception of the school environment – you will not find corridors here.
Design
Instead, there are zones for playing or chatting. We also actively involved children in the concept, who received a building model with an outline from us. Their task was to draw in it what the shape evokes in them. Once, it was an overseas steamer, then a butterfly or a leaf. We designed the building as a passive house. Its construction and operation should make sense and be environmentally friendly. We consider rainwater harvesting, solar panels, or natural ventilation. The materials used emphasize efficiency, functionality, and sustainability.
