2nd Prize in Reutlingen

Our competition design for the new Eduard-Spranger School in Reutlingen was awarded 2nd prize by the jury: "The architects propose a compact, three-storey structure that takes up the proportions of the existing main building and is situated along the axis of the main entrance to the school campus. The position of the building results in harmonious outdoor spaces that both preserve the tree population and create well-proportioned schoolyard areas.(…)
The project concept is coherent and very well developed in all aspects. The compact volume of the building, the judicious load-bearing structure, the use of renewable timber, the good surface-to-volume ratio and the sophisticated design promise a functionally, ecologically, and socially sustainable, cost-effective implementation of the design."
