Um Bock School
Preserving heritage, identity, and communityThe retrofit and extension of Um Bock School preserves far more than a building; it safeguards memory, identity, and community ties. Originally built in the 1950s, the school’s concrete framework and interior red brick walls were carefully retained, preserving their authentic materials and aged patina. Rather than fully replacing damaged areas, the project embraced a sensitive, sustainable approach that combines restoration, extension, and creative repair.

HANGZHOU GUDUN ROAD PRIMARY SCHOOL
01 Intervention
Hangzhou Gudun Road Primary School, built as the Liangzhu Cluster northwest of Hangzhou is positioned as a 36-class public primary school. The southwest and southeast sides of the land are the main roads and secondary roads of the city and the northern, western, and southern sides of the land are used for high-rise residential buildings, forming a high-density and homogeneous urban space. The architects hope to take the construction of the primary school as an opportunity to provide basic education supporting facilities in shortage and build an “urban oasis” in the tense surrounding cement forests, to create a relaxed learning and recreation place for the community and students.
