The Main Hall is the final building in a series of four facilities designed to equip the school with the necessary conditions for the transition phase during the execution of the overall master plan.
In this context, its location and volume adhere to stricter aspects integrated into the overall planning, while the materiality also aligns with the design language established over the past decade of interventions.
Once again, the building was designed for off-site fabrication, with a total on-site construction period of 12 weeks.
The thermal, acoustic, and lighting performances were extensively studied to enhance the flexibility of the spaces and accommodate a wide range of activities throughout the year - from parties to exams, school presentations or smaller work focus groups.
It is also connected to the sports fields to complement larger school events.
