Secondary school Petriolo

The school complex is imagined as a composite, sober, discreet organism. It is divided into a multiplicity of spaces that are combined with each other: from those that must ensure levels of privacy and quiet, independence and autonomy, compared to others that invite participation, exchange, sharing.
The architecture of the school adopts the courtyard typology and seeks a dialogue with the context through the reinterpretation of the forms and materials of local architecture.
The façade is conceived pursuing a unitary architectural language, an expression of a constructive tradition linked to the culture of the places, highlighting the forms and structural characteristics of the building. The external cladding system consists of a ventilated facade whose cladding is made up of prefabricated elements in extruded brick.
