The facility is designed as an open clearing framed by trees within the settlement area, creating a public and inviting space connected to its surroundings. A tree-lined pedestrian path links the neighborhoods, while meadow areas and diverse learning, play, and experience zones are provided, accessible even outside school hours. The new building integrates seamlessly with the existing structures, featuring a central foyer, flexible usage zones, and a garden-room-like rooftop terrace offering various retreat options. The simple timber construction uses regional materials, is sustainable, and adaptable to future needs.
