Second building from the 1970s, The buildings are located very close to each other on the plot but their buildings have no interface.
The project allows the use of school spaces after Hours of operation for residents of the Wadi Nisnas neighborhood. For this purpose, direct access was planned To these spaces from the street so that the community can enjoy the public functions.
Using ramps that pass between and within the buildings The project wants to create a connection between the various buildings and the people who pass through them
The ramps apart from traffic create places to stay and characterize spaces.
The school spaces were designed as spaces without walls, open spaces defined for sub-spaces by levels and the existing construction.
The ramps that dominate the entire southern façade of the historic stone structure, envelop in a way that hides and reveals parts of the structure, embracing it and also allowing it to be experienced from new perspectives.
