Submission: April 27, 2018
RegistrationApril 27, 2018
Language: English, Czech
Location: Smichov, Czech Republic
Prizes: Please see details below
Type: Open

 

The subject of the competition is the design of a primary school with a capacity of 2 x 9 classes and two preparatory classes, caretaker’s flat and dining and sports facilities, including its integration into the newly emerging urban structure in the Prague district of Smíchov (“Smíchov City“) at the point of the intersection of the streets Nádražní and U Železničního mostu.

For the future architects of the school, this project is an exciting challenge: for a long time, no new schools have been built in Prague’s central public areas. The district government of Prague 5 hopes that this newly emerging area will offer a “public school for the 21st century”. I.e., a new school open to modern methods of teaching, which can provide innovative suggestions not only for its own pedagogic activity but offer intriguing possibilities for the rest of the period that the children (and not only they) spend inside the building
