The project aims to develop a long-term growth master plan for the site, drawing inspiration from Montessori education. Circular building designs are central to the project, facilitating the creation of courtyards reminiscent of traditional architecture while ensuring adaptation to the local climate, tradition, and context. Rooted in an understanding of the landscape—a rural terrain with scattered houses and low density—the project utilizes local materials like brick and clay tiles to create a warm, simple identity that harmonizes with the surroundings.
The circular roof design serves a dual purpose: providing outdoor play space for children and enabling supervision from within the building, enhancing functionality and safety. This is complemented by the integration of a spacious indoor play garden, seamlessly blending the surrounding nature into the project's interior. Considering sunlight exposure and bioclimatic factors, especially due to the region's high rainfall, the roof design prioritizes protecting classrooms while offering outdoor play opportunities in designated interior-exterior areas.
By incorporating eaves along the exterior perimeter and within the project, transitional spaces are created, blurring the line between indoors and outdoors. This approach enhances the overall experience of the space, aligning with the project's overarching goals of fostering a holistic learning environment that embraces both nature and architectural innovation.
