PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The project investigates the idea that portable classrooms can not only function in today's school environment but facilitate healthy, sustainable life styles for students. The use of a modular system allows the project to be quickly constructed without the need of heavy equipment, and the ability to interchange various pre-manufactured panels based on the teacher's and student's needs.
The roof is constructed of a translucent sandwich panel, under a lightweight canopy; providing an abundance of natural light. A secondary panel system allows further shading of the structure, as well as opportunities to expand the classroom beyond the class walls.
The structure achieves a high level of sustainability by facilitating the natural air flow.
