refurbishment and extension upgrade of an existing primary school in Murteira. from the playground a new build resembles a series of books placed on a bookshelf. it houses the new classrooms, facilities and canteen. very little is changed from the existing building. we wanted to keep the memory of a certain time when schools were a novelty. status: completed September 2015
