Project idea

This is a project of private school. The idea is very simple - we wanted to create school with two green interior courts - for spending free time, take part in outdoor lessons and colse contact with nature.

Project description

Our idea was to create school and kindergarden , where children can spend as much time in fresh air as possible. Both parts of the building has internal courtyards, where they can play and learn. We decided not to create typical parking, because it takes a lot of space and is used periodically. That is why we propose solution called :kiss and ride". The space is covered with a link between the school and the gym and also protects from rain. Classes are arranged in such a way as to provide sufficient lighting. From the corridor is access to the courtyard, which has a recreational and educational function.
