Architecture for children

School complex with 10 classes (preschool and elementary), including an after-school program and a restaurant with a dining hall. The school complex appears in the landscape with a controlled formal and material duality:  @Salem Mostefaoui @Salem Mostefaoui The classrooms appear in the form of monolithic pavilions that rhythmically shape the landscape with a sequential façade, both dynamic and systematic, offering a different appearance from every viewpoint, sometimes massive, sometimes transparent. The facades, made of in-situ tinted concrete that gives off a warm and welcoming appearance, are then sandblasted after pouring to expose aggregates, in certain places, thus controlling the final quality. The pavilion cla... Mehr

The single-story building may appear as a simple shoebox, but looks can be deceiving. Once inside, a new world unfolds. It's an environment where children experience adventures and discover learning. The design of the building is child-centered, just like the vision of CBS De Regenboog. How do you create such a rich learning environment where students' talents can blossom to the fullest? We looked through the eyes of a child and designed from the perspective of a teacher.A child's world of experienceThe interior of CBS De Regenboog perfectly aligns with a child's world of experience: concave and convex inner walls take center stage.

The school was designed as part of the Ministry of Education's innovation program and is the result of many years of research and development by our Ministry with cooperation from the Development Director of the Ministry of Education and the Givat-Shmuel Municipality. Caption The goal of the school is to offer a physical environment that is suitable for a learning-oriented pedagogy, instead of a teaching-oriented pedagogy. Said pedagogy recognizes and respects the diversity of each child and allows them to maintain a connection to their interests, their curiosity, their body, and the way (the language) in which it is easiest and best for them to learn. It is belived that all these benefits can be achieved by creating a space of choice... Mehr

Schools in Bulgaria keep the imprint of the past socialist period. A long corridor with rooms attached to it, identical desks and chairs facing the podium, where the teacher, the source of knowledge, stands. An educational model, fit for the 21st century, is hard to thrive in this environment. Because of that, 90.
