School Architecture
Major Educational Design Developments from around the World
Guide to School ArchitectureWe've selected what we feel are the key examples of School Architecture. We aim to include projects that are either of top quality or interesting, or ideally both.We cover completed education buildings, new building designs, architectural exhibitions and architecture competitions across the world. The focus is on contemporary Education buildings but information on traditional buildings is also welcome. We have 4 pages of School Architecture selections with links to many individual project pages. School Buildings : news + key projects School Building Developments : A-E School Building Designs : F-N School Architecture : O-Z (this page) School Architecture DesignsEducation Architecture - latest additions to this page, arranged chronologically:School CEIP Josep Guinovart, Castelldefels, Catalunya, north east Spain Design: Pich-Aguilera Architects  photo : Simon Garcia • arqfoto School CEIP Josep Guinovart - 23 Jul 2012 The proposed implementation of the project responds clearly to the specific characteristics of the site. The developed project incorporates favourable solutions and spatial relationships to external and internal requirements for an educational activity. The proposed solution for the whole building is to divide it in two sections each one associated with a teaching activity; the kindergarten is organized in one story building and located in the south part of the site, and the primary school program is distributed in two stories in the north. Panyaden School, Chiang Mai, Thailand 24H > architecture  photo © Ally Taylor / Panyaden School Thailand School Building In the lush green surroundings of a former fruit orchard, where Thailand’s highest mountains meet the flat rice fields, Panyaden School contracted this Dutch architecture studio to design its environmentally friendly school buildings. This 5,000 m2 primary school consists of an informal arrangement of pavilions, organized along pathways inspired by the shape of the tropical antler horn fern. This original design has since evolved organically to its final form which is still in keeping with its original purpose of creating buildings from earth’s elements and shapes that are an ode to nature’s beauty. Sølvgade School, Copenhagen, Denmark C. F. Moller Architects  photo from architects Sølvgade School Building Denmark's oldest school, the listed Sølvgade School built in 1847, close to King Christian IV's famous historic naval barracks, Nyboder, in Copenhagen, has for many years been lacking space and modern facilities. C. F. Moller has carefully renovated the school and done an extension which in its form and colors is true to the surroundings, but also adds a modernistic twist to the school. Thor Heyerdahl School, Larvik, Norway Schmidt Hammer Lassen  picture from architects Thor Heyerdahl School The Thor Heyerdahl School of Advanced and Further Education in Larvik, Norway has been inaugurated. The 33,400 m2 new school, designed by the Danish architects schmidt hammer lassen, is the largest new school building in Norway. Schmidt hammer lassen won the international competition for the school including a 4000 spectator sports arena in 2005. One year later, the company won the competition for a school building of City of Westminster College. The new school is pointing to the future as a social and educational experiment. The students of the technical educations are deliberately mixed with college students aspiring for later university degrees. Thus the architects have made Norwegian thoughts on educational reform concrete. Tianjin Xiqing Elementary School, China Vector Architect studio  photograph from architect Tianjin Xiqing School The competition program called for a design of an elementary school of 48 classes. The major functions include regular classrooms, special program classrooms, cafeteria, training gymnasium, administration areas and an outdoor exercise field. Our goal is to establish a unique place within the school that encourages interaction between the students and teachers through their daily learning and teaching life.
