About Ningbo Hanvos School 教育建筑

宁波华茂学校是一座在有限用地上为国际化教学模式打造的教育建筑。设计面临的主要挑战在于狭小地块与大型运动场需求之间的矛盾。设计选择向天空索取空间：将核心公共空间置于建筑屋顶平台之上，而基础教室则设于其下。折叠庭院的概念将场地划分为教学、活动、行政与休闲等多个庭院。垂直退台将各个层面相互连接，使交通流线转化为共享的活动场所。

Unique Properties: The contradiction between limited project land use and the high demand of international teaching mode for the site is the biggest challenge in this design. Under the pressure of maximize the playground, Hanvos School takes the approach 'asking for space from the sky': the school core public space is located at the top of building terrace, and basic teaching unit rooms are at the bottom of terrace.
Dimensions & Packaging: Site Area: 53330 sqm
Building Area: 36362 sqm
Tags: internationalization, characteristic, Folded Courtyard, Zero Distance,
Production Technology: Materials for wall: Barotropic aerated concrete bloc B6;
Thermal insulation material: XPS, Mineral (rock) wool felt, Inorganic lightweight aggregate insulation mortar type C;
Energy measures: Rooftop solar energy storage;
Design Challenge: Project Innovation :
“Zero Distance” space conversion: on the one hand, the internal space is wrapped by platforms in layers. When room’s door is opened, users will enter continuous public space, and the space conversion in horizontal becomes the shortest; on the other hand, vertical connection becomes the most important element in the space system. The vertical space element is no longer defined as stairs and steps. Vertical height space and terrace are designed in purpose to strengthen communication among different layers. That makes the process of vertical traffic become a process of public activities. Thus a conceptual “Zero Distance” organization mode is created between the internal space and the external space. This organization mode also creates a new space carrier for the new teaching mode.
Inspiration: "Folded Courtyard" is the core design concept of this school. The stereoscopic organization of school space unfolds in both horizontal and vertical directions. By being bended horizontally, the site is subdivided into different courtyards corresponding to different functional requirements: teaching, activities,livelihood,administration, recreation and etiquette, etc.
