The project is centered on the idea of the school as a space for interaction, learning, and sharing. The building is conceived as a compact, legible organism developed on a single level, where the central atrium acts as the heart of school life. The double-height volume and exposed timber roof create a welcoming, recognizable environment, transforming the lobby into a place for social gathering and informal teaching.

The internal layout prioritizes adaptability, allowing for various configurations over time. The relationship with the natural context is a fundamental pillar of the design: classrooms open toward the landscape, maximizing natural light and dialogue with the outdoors. Color, volume, and proportion define an architecture that clearly expresses the building’s educational and social role.

The building is organized starting from the main entrance, which concentrates reception and distribution functions into a shared educational space. The double-height atrium, flooded with natural light and characterized by its wooden structure, is the focal point for common activities, from recreation to collective events.

From this core, two wide lateral corridors lead to the classrooms and services. The generous dimensions of these circulation paths encourage movement and exploration, enhancing the students’ daily experience.

Classrooms are oriented southward toward the hills to minimize external noise and maximize solar gain. This layout allows for a direct, secure connection to the outdoor areas, conceived as an extension of the classroom for open-air workshops. The façade design uses color and volumetric composition to add dynamism, making the school a recognizable landmark within the landscape.
