Architects: Graber Pulver Photography: Georg Aerni Construction Period: 2017 Location: Schlieren, Switzerland
On a former industrial area that was dominated by large factories with shed roofs, a new residential neighborhood is planned / The project acknowledges the history of the location through its architectural formulation which gives the school its specific identity / In the big, three story school building, day care and kindergarten are directly accessible from the outside through individual entrances, while the primary school on the first floor and the middle school on the second floor are each accessed by an individual staircase from the central lobby / On each floor, two large streets act as internal access for the different departments / A sports building with a triple gym and auditorium, built in exposed concrete as a contrast to the metal clad school building, marks the end of the complex towards the railway tracks.
