In urban planning and architectural terms, the “sporty” shape of the site calls for a rationally organised building in order to provide the spaces called for in the schedule of accommodation as well as the qualities expected.
First of all, sufficient open space was to be left to provide areas where the pupils can move around freely. In response to the narrow shape of the site the building was conceived as an elongated, stepped three-storey volume. This generates several advantages:
• An appropriate distance to the NMS
• sunny, south-facing outdoor spaces
• By stepping the functional levels generously sized terraces are created in front of the main teaching spaces.
• clearly oriented towards the centre of the town, with the castle as a reference point.
• The main teaching spaces face south towards the quiet
• All the main teaching spaces have the same kind of lighting conditions
The auditorium is an open living and activity space for programs that accompany lessons, whether day care or events. Seating steps and a spacious performance area for a wide variety of activities, as well as the library, which is an important part of the overall educational concept, are integrated here.
The south facades are partly generous, but not glazed over the entire area: parapets are designed as wooden seating elements. The wide-projecting canopies over all levels serve as sun protection, as does a green facade veil to create a good microclimate.
The school-related open space is a carefully structured and organized area that accommodates and organizes all relevant functions. The elementary school playground extends over three floors. The design style of the special school is continued on the ground floor. A staircase, accompanied by greenery that also serves as a screen for the special school, leads to the first floor. Trough plantings with ornamental grasses and perennials structure the terrace area and continue the green design. On the second floor, a larger flowerbed area is also available as a garden area that can be used for teaching purposes.
