In line with the increase in the number of elementary school studenｔ, we designed a facility that can be used safely and comfortably by elementary school studenｔ and faculty members.
Considering the bright learning environment, securing a good sunny ground, and the effects of shading and oppression on the neighborhood, we planned a layout plan.
In addition, EVs were installed in the existing school building and connecting multiple floors between the extension school building and the indoor crossing corridor, aiming to make the entire school barrier-free.
In order to reduce the feeling of oppression by painting the outer wall color, medaka reliefs have been placed in the elementary school studenｔ easily visible. In the color painting of the relief that elementary school studenｔ participated, the fun and serious look was impressive.
