Academic literature on the topic 'Schoolbuildings'

In the middle of the 19th century scarcely a single town in Spain had its own school building, and most of the existing ones lacked the minimum conditions necessary for teaching. During the Sexenio Democrático (1868-1874), the progressive liberalist wing promoted the construction of schoolbuildings, launching a call for models of primary state schools in 1869. The significance of this call was such that it could be considered as the early dawn of Spanish school architecture, even if the ensuing process and results are debatable. The construction of the Escuela Modelo in Madrid, the Escuelas Aguirre in Cuenca and Madrid, and the Jardines de la Infancia – the first Froebelian institution in Spain, also located in the capital – can be considered to have derived from this contest from 1869.

Redevelopment of the Old High School, Edinburgh, provided an opportunity to investigate the speculatedlocation of a Dominican friary, known to have been founded in the early 13th century. The site was alsothe known location of the 16th-century Royal High School, a predecessor of the present Old High Schoolbuilding constructed in 1777.The scope of the archaeological work included the excavation of a relatively small area to the front ofthe Old High School building. This area contained some of the most significant archaeological remainsrecently found in Edinburgh’s Old Town. These included an early medieval boundary ditch; the survivingremains of two walls, interpreted as being associated with the medieval Dominican friary church and88 accompanying burials spread across three distinct areas. Six of these burials were radiocarbon dated,returning a range of dates between the 13th and 17th centuries, providing the first clear evidence of theexistence of the friary in this location. The most significant of the burials was associated with a cross slabgrave cover and located in an area interpreted as the claustral area of the friary. Both the cross slab and theassociated burial were dated to the late 13th century.Further stone wall foundations relating to the 16th-century Royal High School building were alsoidentified within the excavation area. Several further features ranging from medieval stone-lined drains to19th-century walls and culverts were recorded during further groundworks across the remainder of the site.

Skolan är för 400 barn i årskursen F-6 och beläget i området Henriksdal i närhet till Franzén parken, vattnet, reningsverket och bostadsområden. Skolans arkitektoniska gestaltning är tänkt att återspegla barnens lekfulla natur på ett spännande och nyfiket vis. Skolans fotavtryck är utformad efter tomtens form, tillgångar och utmaningar där komplexets ambition är att skapa bättre förutsättningar till en lugnare skolgård där huskroppen skärmar av den bullriga vägen och öppnar upp mot parken. Konstruktionen av trä har hållbarhet i fokus och är stark inspirerad av origami-konsten som är både vacker och arkitektonisk i sin elegans och simpelhet. De vinklade triangulära fasaderna och taklandskapet skapar rytmisk rörelse utvändigt och spännande rum invändigt på ett balanserat sätt.  Exteriören av ljusgrå puts, glas mörkrädda takplåt och fackverk av stål skapar en harmonisk samspel av materialitet. Planritningens grundidé bottnar i funktionalitet genom att delas in i olika sektioner som kan nyttjas för olika funktioner utöver skolans verksamhet. T.ex kan idrottshallen, matsal och aula hyras ut utan tillgång till resterande lokaler i skolan då de har egna sektioner som även fungerar som brandceller och ljudisolering.
Henriksdal School Henriksdal School it for 400 children from pre-school till 6th grade. Located in Henriksdal Stockholm, in a lot enclosed by a heavy trafficked road by one side and a park on the other. Other significant factors to the area is the sewage plant and residential buildings nearby. The schools architectural concept is to reflect the children’s playful nature and enhance their curiosity with exciting architectural element that could contribute to enhanced learning capacity. The buildings footprint takes form according to the sites outline, resources and Challenges. The body of the building creates a semi enclosed schoolyard that protects from the roads noise as it opens up towards the park as an extended schoolyard. The wood based construction makes the project sustainable and energy efficient with great thermal and acoustic insulation. The structor is inspired by the art or origami witch it both beautiful and structural. The slanted triangular shapes in the facades and roof landscape creates a diverse and exciting interaction between the school and the city. The simplicity of the materials in the facades shape a harmonious and balanced visual content. The floor plans conceptual idea roots in functionality by dividing the complex in sections that could be used for other activities than Education. The nodes containing the sports hall, the foodcourt and the theatre can all be rented out without having access to other areas by those sections that also work as fire safety cells, and acoustic insulation.
