A contemporary school must be the privileged place for the transmission of knowledge and a civic center for the community. The flexibility of the building generated by three interconnected volumes, allows the hybrid area to function completely independently from the teaching area which, outside the lesson hours, can remain closed and inaccessible to external users. The latter will be able to use the lecture hall, the library, the gymnasium and the special classrooms.
The new school will be built in wood except for the roof of the gymnasium which can be made of steel only in order to save money. The construction site will therefore be dry with prefabricated elements (XLAM). This will lead to the reduction of the duration of the works and environmental pollution.
The perimeter green helps to dampen the summer heat. In winter, the trees losing their leaves will allow the sun’s rays to heat the building.
