The mentioned forms are directed up symbolizing the learning process as a movement, reaching heights. The buildings are situated next to one another for the purpose of making warm and shadow recreational spaces. Building materials typical to the place are mainly used, such as wood, rammed earth, brick. The façade is totally covered with vertical wood and due to the gaps between, natural ventilation and lighting is performed.
