Learning in the lap of nature

The design for the new school included premises for a total of 380 people, spread across a primary school, preschool, early childhood education group, and staff rooms.

The site is situated near nature conservation areas and surrounded on all sides by much lower buildings. The area is a valuable cultural heritage environment, and there is a protected building on the adjacent plot. The new building needed to be compatible with the nature and environment in terms of its scale and materials. The building needed to retain a human scale and appear welcoming. Construction began in spring 2020, and the school will be completed in 2022.
