The job of reforming and extending a school in more than double its current area, required a new wide-scale interpretation of the project and the way it fits into its surroundings.
From an initial state where autonomous buildings were placed without any apparent criteria, we propose to consolidate it into a single building that, by means of its letter “T” shape, allows the absorption of the existing school unit “Fuensalida” (1980s).
While the current entrance keeps the administration, in the connection between the original building and the extension appears a new central covered space which joins the two playgrounds and provides access to both the infant school and the primary school and the communal services.
The infant school is structured in the shape of a comb with the courtyards opening out towards the neighbouring park.
