A campus as a second home.
Shunde Primary School is a new boarding school with an enrollment of 2400 students. For these young children, the campus is not only a place for classes; it is a second home. We started to think of the school grounds as memorable, formative spaces that backdrop moments of school life.
We wanted to give the school a strong character. The campus exterior is vivid sienna, made of local bricks, and marked by white diamond patterns that give it a distinct and memorable identity.
The classroom and student residence blocks are connected on the second level while the academic blocks are connected on all levels by a series of non-parallel bridges—these are requisite fire escape routes that children would, later in adulthood, remember as impromptu play spaces.
Shunde Primary School is a new school in a progressive and fast-changing Chinese city so it is important that the school is future-proof and adaptable for changing use. Having connected blocks gives the school the option to transition to flexible learning in time to come. It might be said that Shunde is more than a facility for education; it is a studied intention for making memory, place, and, in various ways, the future.
