The design of the school draws inspiration from the archaeological digs that uncovered old boats, kilns, pottery pieces, and earthenware dating back to 700 BC in the local vicinity, informing both the materiality and form of the building’s external envelope.
The Performing Arts building, situated at the front of the campus and overlooking the lake, is the highlight of the project with its form acting as a reflection of the site’s context and responding to the lakeside location and the contours of the land with the building envelope using materials that reflect the local brick-making and ceramics history.
