Key : Low Energy Building, Green Urban Space

On a limited, steeply contoured site, it is impossible to provide expansive open spaces. This school, which includes kindergarten, elementary, and middle school levels, has separate entrance points to prevent circulation congestion. The kindergarten entrance is placed at the far end for safety reasons, while older children in elementary and middle school have different access routes. Open play areas, sports facilities, and ceremonial spaces are located on the grass-covered roof, which also helps cool the spaces below. A central void ensures even natural lighting, and a visible ramp system is positioned to be seen from all sides.
