BRIEF INTRODUCTION OF THE PROJECT
Instead of attending two different school sites in the Rostock suburb of Reutershagen, the school pupils shall in the future be taught in a central and expanded school building that has been refurbished in terms of its energy efficiency. The extension is ensured by the construction of a new school building, which will be placed in parallel with the existing building. Another new build for a primary school is going to be raised at the western front of the two blocks. The entire school complex is designed to generate more energy than it actually needs for space heating, domestic water heating, lighting, and for running the technical building systems. To provide thermal insulation for the solid external walls of the existing building, timber elements are mounted on the external facade.
