Healthy Planet School / Vir.Mueller Architects
The intensity of megacity urbanity, where air pollution and environmental degradation are pre-conditions for design, presents a particular challenge for the creation of secure environments for education. Conceptualized as a 'cocoon', this project for a pre-school and kindergarten aspires to be a luminous safe haven for young children as they engage with early years learning. Organized as a set of organic 'cells' of curved brick walls punctuated by circular porthole windows, the learning spaces weave a tactile ring around a courtyard.
