The design brief called to design a centrally air-conditioned School located in Surat. The general typology of schools in this city is of creating a vertical mass with rooms stacked together, without much of breathing spaces between two classrooms. We took a holistic approach for this project, and instead of continuing the existing typology of designing schools in Surat, took a different approach. Due to the constraints in space, an Internal courtyard has been designed, along with the circulation and gathering spaces. The staircase becomes an extension to work as an Amphitheatre. This functions as an open-air theatre, an entity to the live and open-culture which is aimed at achieving in such an Air-conditioned school.
