St. Christopher Gymnasium will become a modern, sustainable educational space that meets the needs of the community. In our design, we aim to create an efficient, ergonomic, and durable solution that aligns with contemporary school design practices.
The project involves the renovation of the school, built in 1976, with a fundamental redesign of the interior spaces and the modernization of the building’s engineering systems. Although the number of students and classrooms will remain the same—24 classrooms—the entire structure of the high school will be adapted to modern educational needs and comfortable daily community activities.
The project places a strong emphasis on sustainability and energy efficiency. The modernized engineering systems will significantly reduce energy costs, improve the indoor climate, and ensure a high-quality learning environment for students and teachers. During the renovation, spaces will also be created based on the principles of aesthetic, functional, and universal design.
A new approximately 300-square-meter annex with modern changing rooms for sports activities is also being designed. The building will be fully accessible to people with disabilities—elevators are planned, along with updated access points and convenient movement throughout all spaces. The project also includes an underground parking garage and a renovated school grounds with new public spaces for community activities.
This project reflects a strategic approach to the renovation of existing educational buildings, creating a modern, safe, and future-ready educational infrastructure in the city of Vilnius.
