project
stattegg primary school
competition entry for the new stattegg primary school — awarded an honourable mention. a compact school building organised around a covered courtyard that connects all areas as a light-filled heart.
organisation
the hall and gym sit by the entrance and can also be used by the community outside school hours. classrooms, library and all-day-care areas group around the central courtyard; a skylight brings daylight deep inside, and the double-height gym gives the volume its scale.
attitude
a calm, clearly structured volume settles precisely into the gently sloping terrain and frames the forecourt and open spaces. short paths, clear orientation and a robust, child-friendly spatial fabric shape the design.
