2.0 ABSTRACT

This project is based in a sequence and relations between four configurations that we will call “RINGS”. Each one is defined by a two levels perimeter with different thickness and a green activity patio. It is important in them the built perimeter as well as the interior empty space and the relation with the other rings. While the perimeters build perimetral shadows and embrace the hard program of the building, the patios are sowed with different trees and tropical, native vegetation that allow to characterize and suggest different activities such as games, sports and educational exchanges.

The projected image is a colorful, light, and peaceful architecture. The relationship between the four rings and the solar geometry and its connection strategy defines the transitional and central zone communicated with each other. This intermediate space is a connection to the exterior public space that allows the access to the school.
