Blending tradition with playfulness, fostering light, air, and energy efficiency.

The school was built on a 12 acres piece of land. The 20,000 sq. ft. ‘infant’ school has a dichotomy in its design. The façade ties in with the junior school in its use of brick piers and so on, but as one moves through the building a sense of playfulness emerges ending with china mosaic sculptural railings, floor patterns & the fishpond.

The articulated spaces within the building forms enables natural ventilation. Courtyard spaces are created within the complex which has minimized the use of artificial lighting and ventilation and substantially conserves energy.
