Description

The project for the secondary school in Nimis completes the school campus of the city. The exterior spaces have a special relation with the building that is configured as a compact volume. The circulation areas are conceived as hybrid zones, at times envisaged as gathering areas and at times as spaces for extra-curricular activities.

From an architectural point of view, the facades are designed to meet the bioclimatic requirements with the use of overhangs and sun-shading elements that define its unique volume. The structure in wooden X-Lam panels guarantees sustainability and optimal anti seismic performance, while the PV panels on the roofing, an efficient envelope and innovative plant systems ensure high energy-performance.

Focus

Not just a school building but a space available to the community, designed with a particular care for anti-seismic and energy efficiency criteria.
