Not ANOTHER gross concrete Swiss school…
one goes to school to study. thats all, no fun, no games, you can see the beautiful landscape far away and wish you were there, but you are not, you are in school, trapped inside the concrete box, waiting for the bell to ring, let it be over, let me out…
A prison again!
Very similar to valerio olgiatti’s school building.
Its elegant, but I wish it wasn’t so cold.
Those views are to die for. I quite like this design!
God save the kids..
its like a bad copy of olgiati’s school in paspels.
the mountain views from the classrooms are unbelievable! its amazing that the students can daydream into such a beautiful landscape!
urg an the toilets infront of the window, to guarantee the grid is horrible … all fur coat and no knickers.
must be horrible loud while the breaks … and even in the class rooms. nevertheless I like the outer appearance – nice clean design (only the entrance, which is about 20 cm higher than the windows is a shame)
