Details
The new cafeteria building connects school facilities and outdoor areas. A tall, light-filled dining hall opens to the schoolyard, while ancillary spaces are housed in a more restrained volume. Large glazed surfaces and a seemingly floating roof structure emphasize transparency and bring ample daylight into the building. The all-day area in the basement is accessible at ground level. A clear layout and functional zoning provide orientation and a high quality of stay.
