Each building receives its own identity with a connection to its location and use. The open space concept links the kindergarten with the agricultural surroundings, where seasonal crop rotations diversify the play offerings. The single-story double kindergarten, designed as a treehouse, creates playful outdoor spaces. The auditorium is functionally and modernly integrated into the school grounds. Sustainable low-tech techniques, natural ventilation, high insulation, and photovoltaic systems ensure energy efficiency and a comfortable indoor climate. Flexible building structures allow for future adaptations.
