KnowledgeScape
European Education School
2012
Education in this project means moving towards the floating structure, moving towards pervasive knowledge, moving towards the light. The aim is to experience knowledge that hovers in the air, like an open and straightforward gesture above the ground, a knowledge platform hovering over the landscape
The school that will host this kind of knowledge is a porous and regenerating infrastructure. A series of spatial and airy utterances inform the design of the school shell and establish a new ground-air relationship; a perforated landscape between Earth and Sky, a material and immaterial succession of events.
