An innovative, experimental, evolving pedagogy needs spatial support that promotes real interactions and synergies between users and their environment. The atelier school works like a stage where students are protagonists of a constantly evolving story. They are the actors and producers in “the scene,” a space where they are continuously learning by doing.
Spaces are expandable and transformable; they have “in between” zones without predefined uses, allowing for the creation of unexpected and inspiring situations. The design is adapted to climatic conditions that first rely on passive environmental control techniques to minimize power consumption. The bioclimatic functioning has an educational role too, making the students responsible for their seasonal changes and conditions.
