A Call to Play!
Rethinking the architecture of a primary school in Tallinn
The primary school is situated between Kalamaja and the old town and aims to serve as a social connection between these two distinct neighbourhoods. The project challenges the conventional design of school architect ure by rethinking the classroom, circulation space and playground as an active participant of learning. The design treats the notion of a school as a social building embedded in its urban context. Nature and playfulness guide the spatial strategy of the project, creating a multitude of possibilities that allow children to learn, play and socialise beyond the classroom. Through this approach, the project seeks to support the role of imagination as a vital part of a learning environment.
