PHAN CHAU TRINH SPORTS HALL
The sports hall is part of an ongoing effort by Phan Chau Trinh Interlevel School to renew its infrastructure, gradually transforming its existing campus to accommodate the needs of both a growing school and the neighboring community.
The sports hall is conceived as a large, double-wall volume. This double-wall system, with an outer layer of corrugated metal separated from the inner layer of cement panels alows for an active climatic layer inbetween. Seen from the surrounding streets, such double-wall facade begins to suggest the structure of gills, giving the building a changing appearance as light, shadow and movement pass across its surface. Such analogy is less about form than about performance: sunlight is filtered, rain is kept... More

BAfEP
With the new BAfEP Salzburg building – BAfEP being Austria’s Federal College for Early Childhood Education – a contemporary educational space was created that combines functionality, clarity and natural materials. Around 2,000 m² of European Oak, grades E and B, define the interior design and create a warm, welcoming learning atmosphere. In the classrooms, the high-quality oak surfaces are used for custom-made shelving, ensuring structured and harmonious learning environments.

Colégio PH Jockey
Project Description
Located within the Jockey Club of Rio de Janeiro, the new unit of Colégio PH occupies a building from the 1940s, listed as a historical heritage site. The school, which serves students from elementary to high school, required an interior architecture that reflected the innovative spirit of the brand while respecting the history of the location.

Šielâ school
"The Inari Sámi name Šielâ could be translated as a birth gift given to a newborn for protection."
Šielâ, a new school center, was the answer to the need to replace an old, 1960s school decommissioned due to indoor air problems. The approximately 165 pupils of the new comprehensive school study in Inari Sámi, North Sámi and Finnish languages, and the multilingual environment and annually varying class sizes posed special challenges to the design of the learning facilities.

Nido Aquilone
The design of the two new extensions to the school complex on Via Montessori in Godo, in the province of Ravenna, represented for the Mecozzi Verdini studio an important opportunity to engage with an already well-established school building system, yet one in need of both functional and compositional updating. The new volumes are conceived as architectural fragments harmoniously integrated into the garden, where the color red becomes a unifying element between the two buildings and contributes to enhancing their formal readability.

The intervention by the Mecozzi Verdini studio responds to the evolving needs of the local community: within the complex that houses both the “Fantini” primary school and the... More

Gifted and Talented Schools in Hai Al-Reda
Emerging from a context shaped by decades of instability, the Gifted and Talented Schools in Hai Al-Reda redefines the role of educational architecture in Iraq-not merely as a place of learning, but as a catalyst for national renewal. The project embodies a forward-looking vision that positions education as a foundation for innovation, resilience, and societal transformation.
@Nudhum Al-Benaa Consultancy
Conceived through a value-driven design framework, the architecture balances performance and purpose—integrating safety and functionality with sustainability and well-being. At its core lies an organic circulation spine, a continuous spatial narrative that dissolves rigid institutional boundaries and reimagines the campus as an... More

Indiranagar Primary School
The Challenge: A Legacy at Risk
The project began with a brief for demolition of existing school building. A 30-year-old school building in Koyali, Vadodara, was in a dilapidated condition. With a sinking plinth, cracked flooring, and termite-infested doors and windows, lack of natural cross ventilation and heat retention, the four-classroom block was struggling to provide a conducive learning environment. Despite being the oldest structure on campus, distinguished by its characteristic sloping roof, it had become a dark, heat-trapped, and uninspiring environment for learning.

Panno Prototype powered by 3Cycle
Panno-School + 3Cycle are jointly developing a scalable, open-source building system for public facilities in Ukraine. The building system responds to the growing demand for sustainable, high-quality and efficient solutions for education, healthcare and community infrastructure in the reconstruction of the country.
The collaboration is driven by a shared ambition: to move beyond one-off projects and temporary solutions. Panno-School + 3Cycle are therefore developing a generic building system that is scalable and efficient, provides consistent quality, and at the same time allows room for local context, culture and traditions.

Suolahti comprehensive School
The Suolahti comprehensive school was designed in close cooperation with its future users and city representatives. The goal was to make the premises as flexible, multifunctional and efficient as possible, as well as economically and structurally sustainable.

The old side of the school represents a straightforward, markedly 70s style building. A new part was designed to strike the same chord while reflecting the softer values of the present. A red-brick facade and strip windows tie the extension to the old side of the architecture, and the extension does not rise higher than the original school.

Nepal school project
Rooted in Nepal’s rich cultural heritage and vernacular architecture, the Nepal Village School redefines rural education through a campus that evokes the organic character of traditional villages. Designed using locally sourced, low-impact materials, the project blends seamlessly into its mountainous landscape while fostering a strong sense of identity and belonging. Rather than imposing an institutional character, the school is composed of modular 6x6-meter units arranged in flexible clusters.

Greens Farms Academy Fitness Facility
The new fitness facility for Greens Farms Academy has an important role marking the vehicular entrance to the school. A cantilevered canopy reaches out and serves as a strong visual gesture while also serving as a shading device for the western facing glazed facade. The building mediates between neighboring historical buildings and the more recent contemporary additions to the school.

Saint Ann's Maker Space
Our redesign of the Saint Ann’s School Maker Space embraces the idea that this central learning center should be a destination for students and faculty alike, and a space of proactive provision for its many potential uses. We tapped into the explorative ethos of the school; its new visual identity; and extensive faculty conversations to transform it into a nimble, multi-use arena for play and learning.

American School Foundation of Guadalajara Phase 1
The new American School Foundation Guadalajara (ASFG) building represents a forward-looking vision for education, serving a community of 1,500 students in a vertically developing urban area. This seven-story structure doubles existing academic space, maximizes green areas, and provides state-of-the-art facilities that embody 21st-century education.
Its vibrant colors, sculptural form, and clean design draw inspiration from Guadalajara's rich cultural heritage. Integrating abundant vegetation, the building creates a healthy environment that improves air quality and uses new trees for natural shading, connecting students to nature in an urban setting for mental rejuvenation.

DMJX
Peeking in from the outside, one immediately senses that DMJX Copenhagen is a dynamic, creative, and forward-thinking environment. From the bold, bright façade to the green staircase spiraling up through the atrium, this is a campus that exudes ‘DMJX’. And, with sustainability, flexibility and well-being at the core of the design, it’s made for the future.
Our new building is an institution which represents the present and future – not the past. We have received the best possible settings for the new beginnings we will create together.Lea Korsgaard, board chairperson, DMJX
