Nuuk's new school project, Atuarfik Inussuk, stands as a beacon of education and community in the heart of the city. 

This unique school draws inspiration from Greenland's rich history and nature, prioritizing indoor comfort and open spaces that enhance the learning experience.

Its design seamlessly integrates with the city while harmonizing with the surrounding landscape, offering not only an exceptional learning environment but also active public spaces that invites the community in.

“The architectural expression is inspired by the omnipresent Greenlandic nature. The building's roofs are shaped in resemblance to the rocky landscape and present themselves as silhouettes against the sky, mirroring the contours of the mountains.”

-Janina Zerbe, Architect and Partner

This school project caters to all age groups, ensuring a nurturing and progressive journey for every child. It's designed to promote social sustainability, stimulate cultural recognition, and offer a gathering place for the community.

Considering the long, dark winters, making the best use of natural light has been a key factor in the design. Atuarfik Inussuk represents not only an educational hub but also an emblem of cohesion and progressive architectural vision in Nuuk.
