헤이그시에 위치한 아메리칸 스쿨은 230명 가량의 3~6세 어린이들을

위한 복합교육공간으로 기존에 위치한 16세기 농장을 리노베이션하여

환경과 자연을 통합하는 건축환경을 조성한다.

아이들을 위한 보육시설, 12개의 교실, 체육관 및 다목적실로 구성된

2동의 건축물은 내부 채광을 위한 천창 및 창문을 제외하고

목재를 이용하여 아늑하면서도 포근한 친자연적인 공간을 구성한다.

여기에 지역적 건축의 흔적을 반영한 박공지붕은

내부공간의 효율적인 유효높이를 확보하는 동시에

-지붕 사면에 천창을 설치, 내부 조도를 확보한다.-

스쿨의 건축적 캐릭터를 구체화하는 디자인 요소로 계획된다.

Rotterdam-based architects Kraaijvanger designed a barn-like building to house a nursery, 12 classrooms and a gym for babies and children up to the age of six for the American School of The Hague in Wassenaar. The new “barn” adjoins a sixteenth-century farmhouse that the architects are currently renovating.

The farm is restored and incorporated into the whole. The entire complex is integrated into the environment and the landscape. The school has a capacity for 230 children from 3 to 6 years and includes a nursery, twelve classrooms, a gym and a multipurpose room. The entrance is in line with the arrival route over the Deijlerweg and is designed as a monumental glass heart between the farm and the “barn”.

The dialogue between the two buildings, can be felt both inside and outside. The expansion partly deepened to encroach the monument is not too much. The materialization of the new building refers to a barn by applying wood substructures, caps and wooden parts for wall cladding.

The barn houses all the classrooms and the library. Because of the inclined slope even the lower floors receive enough daylight. The classrooms are characterized by the entry of natural light, the use of healthy materials and the direct relationship with the surrounding landscape.

In farmhouse are located the administrative functions of the school a lunch room for 100 children, a kitchen, a nursery and a local labor. The sports facilities are housed in a separate building. It contains a gymnasium, changing rooms, a canteen and the clubhouse of the local handball association. The building is designed as two interlocking volumes with sloping green roofs, matching the shape of the extension and rural character of the area. A large window is placed in the gymnasium overlooking the connecting bridge to the main building and offers insight from the school and outside play areas.

Around the school there are several playgrounds to suit the different age groups. They are designed by design studio Van Ginneken with greenery, seating and educational components such as a vegetable garden.

Hedges, wooden fences and gentle slopes locks provide a friendly separation between the different squares. In an adjacent site parking there are gravel pavement and rows of trees between the parking.

The building is fully integrated into the environment and the surrounding landscape. The design of the landscape is based on the objectives of the school. A healthy environment where young children playfully learn why sustainability matters. By using water, natural materials and to show how energy is generated children come in a natural way in contact with this theme. The building makes use of solar energy, LED fixtures, cold and heat storage, wastewater reuse and cradle to cradle materials such as Accoya cladding.
