A clear and simple design strategy defines the school building: A plait. To sets of double stories are pushed together to form a central area with normal floor height. The double-height parts are used for workshop activities, while the central part houses theory classrooms etc. In the centre of the building, a large circular atrium cuts through the building from ground floor to top glass roof, connecting all floors.

The two-sided design of the school building discretely handles the bending of the site, and at both sides of the building, large parable openings invite by-passers to get a good impression of the many activities inside [from 3XN]
