Architectural design

A school campus of white pavilions around tree-lined courtyards.

Concept

The project

The classroom volumes are wrapped in a screen of vertical fins that filters the sun and unifies the ensemble. Between them, planted courtyards and covered walkways organise circulation.

The main building is raised on columns, leaving open stands towards the sports field underneath.
