Project: New School Building
Location: Romanshorn, Switzerland
Size: 1,500 m2
Budget: 10M. CHF
Consultant: Sara Rickenbacher, Landscape Arch.
The proposed school building integrates into the
Brüggli neighborhood through a restrained urban
form, soft materiality, and embedded landscape.
A key feature is the open-air classroom concept,
where children are encouraged to learn outdoors in
semi-sheltered spaces that promote spontaneous
interaction with nature. These adaptable
environments designed in response to historical
and contemporary health and pedagogical needs,
enhance creativity, autonomy, and well-being.
Together with flexible indoor spaces, wooden
construction, and ecological strategies, the
architecture fosters sustainable learning and
environmental awareness.
