Primary School For Sciences And Biodiversity

The primary school for sciences and biodiversity project show the innovative a fully functional eco-system building. This project has two section, one primary school and one gymnasium for local residents. These two section be wrapped by the ‘mineral wall’, which is the main feature of project. The first picture shows the structure of ‘mineral wall’.

The mineral wall is produced by precast concrete. In this project, the precast concrete shows the two different type — sloppy and ribwork. The ribwork wall have coarse and rugged surface, which could provide rut for growth of plants and bird’s nest. The following picture shows the feature of the mineral wall.

The roof of project is a real hanging garden, which is made up of three-layer vegetation. The roof garden provides an ecological corridor which cover abundant vegetation and animal species. The roof through ramp connect the different floors. The green roof also provides an innovative public communicative space for students and local residents. The hanging garden have two main function: 1. The green roof garden and mineral wall ensure the biological diversity continuation. 2. The green roof garden also improve the living environment in this area, which provide an aerial landscape for surrounding area. The following picture shows the design sketch of project.
