The municipality announced an architectural competition for a new primary and secondary school. The main concept in our proposal is a new “axis” which connects the campus with the lake in the west and the river to the east. We have also chosen to show the common facilities in 2 storey existing buildings and the actual teaching areas in their own 1 storey, new buildings, which in turn are designed on the basis of a “kit of parts” thinking.
