The core concept of sustainability underpins all aspects of this design plan. In addition to the choice of construction and materials, space efficiency, flexibility and a human scale were also particularly important. The new building extends the existing structure to the east and creates new indoor and outdoor spaces via two connecting corridors. A work yard, a herb garden with raised beds, a natural play garden with a green classroom area and a new gymnasium with a central forecourt are being created. Short distances, flexible learning areas, an open-plan forum and classrooms of equal size enable versatile use without the need for conversion work. The timber frame construction with cross-laminated timber ceilings allows for a high degree of prefabrication and single-type dismantling. A green retention roof serves to store rainwater and provide cooling, PV systems generate electricity, and district heating is used for heating. Decentralised ventilation, pergolas and sun protection ensure a pleasant indoor climate. All areas are barrier-free, and a guidance system aids orientation. The compact, flexible design and recyclable materials guarantee sustainable and economical use.
