The over-scaled single-slope roof slab and large clerestory faces a primary thoroughfare, announcing the school’s presence and inviting residents in to make the most of this valuable community asset.
“Gallery” spaces define circulation The building circulation is clear, and intuitive, embracing the feel of an open art gallery, with high ceilings, prominent display areas and break-out space with views to the courtyard where students and community can gather to exhibit works and smaller exhibitions.
