"The future education scenarios we envision should be a community where knowledge, information, and vitality are intertwined, and sharing, diversity, and complexity are embraced."——Zhu Peidong.
HIS Hangzhou International School is one of the earliest K-15 international schools in Hangzhou. In 2018, a new campus was built on the south bank of the Qiantang River in Baima Lake, which includes three academic departments of primary, and secondary school, as well as an independent ECE (Early Childhood Education) program. Based on the school's non-traditional educational philosophy, objective site constraints, and the self-reflection of architects, we attempted to redefine the meaning of education and create a new teaching scenario characterized by intensive land use and high-efficiency space, with shared and communicative space as the main feature.
