Design that Meets Nordic Educational Methods<\/h3>\r\n

A<\/span>nchored on a plot with 8 meters of elevation, the school faces North towards the Marne and explores a new pedagogical model of Finnish inspiration, offering a diversity of shared spaces. The compact building of 50mx100m is set on 4 levels, maintaining a low height profile in relation to neighboring pavilions. Like a Palladian villa, functions are embedded in the core of the building, in an area filled with natural light and the social vibrancy of the school.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

With Oiseau Lyre, r2k<\/a> architect brings the environmental and educational ambitions of the City of Noisy le Grand to realization through the construction and interior design of a positive energy building made of wood. Based on recent cognitive research, it provides a framework for active pedagogies.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The program includes 24 classrooms for kindergarten and elementary students, as well as 8 rooms intended as recreation spaces. Common spaces, including a multipurpose room with direct external access, a motor room, an art galleries, a library, a restaurant, and a sports hall are shared with civic associations when school is out. On a steep slope facing the Marne River, three levels of the 4-level school are connected to the natural terrain, facilitating the safety of children. Located in the middle of a vernacular district, the project also respects the proportions of surrounding houses.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Biophilia and Well-being<\/h4>\r\n

The project welcomes natural light into the heart of school spaces, despite its diminutive size of just 50mx100m. It is sculpted with light thanks to sheds, skylights, interior glazing, and more that highlight wood materials in the heart of the building through the atrium and the steps. Light and materiality are essential parts of well-being and, from the interior spaces, the view of the private gardens greatly contribute to a peaceful atmosphere. Acoustics defined by wooden ceilings, as well as indirect lighting, complete the soothing environment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

An Efficient Wooden Structure<\/h4>\r\n

A renewable resource and carbon sink, wood provides both aesthetic and functional solutions, while promoting the integration of a new urban element into the vernacular environment. Each zone has its own structural typology, with truss lattices forming sheds, trees columns\/ plank round wood, ribbed CLT floors, LVL accessible roof floor coffers, wood frame walls, CLT splits, and wooden beam posts as a primary skeleton. Crossing through the elementary courtyard to the gym, trusses of 22m are arranged in a shed to form a courtyard that introduces a soft light and supports the solar panels. A ribbed LVL floor supporting the courtyard crosses 22m on 4 supports above the gym, and are the largest caissons of this type ever made.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Positive Energy\/ Low Carbon Design<\/h4>\r\n

Multiple factors must be addressed in order to achieve the result of a building producing more energy than it consumes. The first involves limiting thermal losses. The second requires capturing renewable energies in passive and active ways, which is achieved by integrating photovoltaic panels located on the south side of the sheds. Electrical, kitchen, and double flow ventilation equipment were chosen for their sobriety, making natural ventilation of the classrooms possible. Protective equipment against direct external sunlight is also installed, while internal floorheating is achieved thanks to a dozen geothermal probes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Nordic Pedagogies<\/h4>\r\n

Interpretations of the merits of learning modes and different pedagogies possible in schools has dramtically evolved through cognitive studies. These changes revolve around two key concepts:<\/p>\r\n

    \r\n\t
  1. A child's understanding is not a direct result of the teaching, but is rather an active biptoduct of the child's own research on a personal path.<\/li>\r\n\t
  2. The most impactful school learning takes place not in isolation, but in open environments within the school, society, and the world.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

    In addressing these issues, that means school buildings require:<\/p>\r\n
