This project delivers an intervention that increases this urban school's capacity and facilitates contemporary pedagogy. One of the key design moves was to extend the building down from the hill it sits on to form a new relationship with the street. We replaced defensive boundary treatments with a façade full of active classrooms and administrative areas to enliven the locality. The design elevates the children to a higher level of awareness of their context and surrounding geography which broadens their horizon. Collaboration and learning is promoted internally and externally through a visually open and interconnected architecture that even includes a roof top play and learning space.
