0329Primary School Düdingen
The extension building completes the three existing school structures and creates a large continuous green area in the east. A setback strengthens the pedestrian connection, while a new plaza is formed in the west. The school gains two equivalent entrances. Beneath the connecting roof are the main entrance, the assembly hall, and access to the after-school care, which is fully organized on the ground floor. The upper floors contain classrooms, administration, workshop rooms, and music. The gymnasium and kindergarten are located in the base level with direct outdoor access. Diverse outdoor spaces offer areas for play, learning, and retreat. The compact timber building uses photovoltaics, green roofs, clear building systems, and prefabricated elements for sustainability and efficiency.
