Kindergarten, primary school and canteen

The site is situated between an industrial area to the east and a nature park to the west. The wooden building ensemble mediates between the scenic contrasts of the streetscape and the riverside landscape. Towards nature the houses open up with diverse outdoor spaces and accessible roofs. This area with two yards, biotopes and educational gardens is an extended learning and playground for the children.

The two-storey light-flooded library forms the heart of the elementary school. The spatial organisation of the school into three buildings connected through transparent bridges leads to clear orientation and enables visual relationship with as well as passages to nature. The building caters to the needs of children.
