Garden city school

The aim of the design is to integrate the extension of the school into the existing Garden City structure, strengthen the street elevation and preserve the greenery, at the same time providing desired separate entrances to the 2 schools and sports hall. The existing outdoor sports-field is creatively integrated into design. The Hall 2 building is formed in a way, that it seemingly follows the landscape. Both buildings are envisioned as compact and robust structures with iconic features.
