An exterior precedent for educational architecture using perforated terracotta brick screens and dynamic stepped volumes to balance privacy, natural ventilation, and playful indoor-outdoor terraces.
- What we like about this project
- The transition from solid perforated brick to soaring triangular glass gables creates a striking contrast between heavy texture and lightweight transparency.

- Geometry
- Complex articulated volumes step and intersect, featuring angled gable roofs, cantilevered terraces, and glazed curtain wall inserts framed in white.
- Facade system
- Perforated terracotta brick cavity screen wall combined with glazed curtain walls and glass balustrades.
- Structural guess
- Reinforced concrete frame with non-loadbearing terracotta screen walls.
- Spatial scale
- Child-scale and human-scaled courtyards and terraces integrated within a multi-story educational volume.
- Lighting
- Bright direct daylight casting crisp shadows across the textured brick surfaces and accentuating the deep geometric profiles.
- Atmosphere
- Vibrant, porous, and warm, with filtered light passing through patterned brickwork into educational spaces.
- Environmental context
- Low-rise institutional campus setting with lush green planting at ground level and open sky background.
- Spatial experience
- The layered massing creates a rhythmic progression of indoor-outdoor transitions between landscaped courtyards, terraces, and perforated brick screens.
- Composition rhythm
- Dynamic diagonal rooflines contrasted against the rigid horizontal and vertical grid of the brick screen perforations.
