Johanna-Eck-School’s Design Concept
The Johanna-Eck-School has an elongated structure segmented with inward and outward curves. This design facilitates dynamic links between the interior and exterior through prominent window sections. The Johanna-Eck-School has a cohesive spatial continuum encompassing several areas such as the canteen, cafeteria, club room, reading lounge, and multifunctional room. These areas can be seamlessly connected or separated into individual rooms by rotating walls. Two recessed service areas, enclosed with integrated furniture, further delineate the fluid space. © Werner Huthmacher
