The Zhengze School in Beijing is located in a densely built-up area of the old town, for which numerous building regulations exist. However, by repurposing a former paper mill, existing space capacities could be optimally used for educational purposes. For this, parts of the building were converted into a sports and lecture hall as well as into science labs, and the sports field found is located on the roof. The characteristics of a factory building were preserved, but were sensitively adapted in light colours, with an intelligent lighting concept and special design details.
심사평
The successful transformation of an old paper factory into a contemporary and functional school building is impressive.
