Text description provided by the architects. The school complex in Davos Platz is converting its operations to a daycare structure and therefore requires additional space for an assembly hall, cafeteria, administration, and extra classrooms. For that reason, the existing building from the 1960s was to be demolished in favor of a new ecological building. To preserve the embodied energy, an integrative solution with the existing building was proposed instead, in which the old structure is extended on the long sides and a story is added to meet the growing requirements of the program.
