The school was restored to original detail and modernized to accommodate interdisciplinary courses and differentiated teaching.
The extension was designed to embrace interaction and diversity and allow students to learn from each other, formally and informally, through the adaptability and flexibility of the learning spaces.
The original school consists of a repeated structure of building and courtyards. The new underground extension used this theme, establishing daylight in the parterre plan via four large courtyards designed as crystal-like openings.
