The site was a 20-acre flat area which needed to accommodate the primary & secondary sections of the school along with the residential facilities. The primary school has been designed with 4 classrooms opening up to the internal courtyard wherein the students can partake activities like growing vegetables etc., This forms a sort of private open space for these classrooms. Each of these units of 4 classrooms are connected by corridors to form a large enclosed open space which can accommodate the whole primary school for assembly. Ancillary structures like the audio-visual rooms, art rooms, music room etc., were also provided. The articulated spaces within the building forms enables natural ventilation. Courtyard spaces created within the complex minimizes the use of artificial lighting and ventilation and substantially conserves energy. The 20,000 sq. ft. ‘infant’ school has a dichotomy in its design. The façade ties in with the junior school in its use of brick piers. As one moves through the building a sense of playfulness emerges ending with China mosaic sculptural railings, floor patterns & the fishpond.
