Article source: ONL Arquitectura As the site is small and triangular in shape, the project design has to focus on devoting as much exterior space as possible to the playground, in a single area oriented to the south. The simplicity of the exterior building envelope, in particular the roof which has a single slope, is only broken by two skylights which provide the natural light needed inside the classrooms in a uniform way.

The large porches on the southern side accentuate the building’s linear design. Large-scale latticing, which filters the sunlight as it enters the classrooms and the exterior playground, creates a change of scale different to the one normally associated with a one-storey building.
