[해외] 쌍둥이 하우스 [ Jessop and Cook Architects ] St Mary's Infant School

[내이처]

이란성 쌍둥이? 벽돌 박공지붕형태의 교실 건물 앞에 위치한

캐노피 하우스는 뒷편 교실과 동일한 프로파일을 유지하며 아이들의

외부놀이공간-외부환경으로 부터 보호받는- 을 확보하는 세미 아웃도어 스페이스로

디자인된다.

두 볼륨의 동일한 프로파일은 공간의 연계성을 유지 시키며

동질화 시킨다. 이와같이 동질화된 공간은 다시 인도어와 아웃도어,

벽돌과 우드, 솔리드와 보이드로 대비를 이루며 개별성을 갖춘다.

같지만 서로 다른 두개의 공간은 이제 아이들을 위한 교육공간으로

제공된다.

Offset gabled volumes form a new classroom and play area at this infant school in Oxfordshire, England, by local firm Jessop and Cook Architects

Jessop and Cook Architects designed the adjoining buildings with the same profile, but shifted the timber play area sideways from the brick classroom.

"The different materials for the covered external canopy help create a warm friendly feel to the place and help define the spaces," project architect Dan Wadsworth told Dezeen. "We didn't want to just tack on a canopy and felt continuing to use brick would be too heavy and overbearing."

Covered in cedar shingles on the outside and clad with stained planks of the same wood inside, the timber structure provides a sheltered outdoor play area open to the playground. "We created a small enclosed secret garden for the children to play in," said Wadsworth.

Windows in the roof let in extra light, as well as the gap at the back where the two structures misalign.

Glass doors fold back to merge the play space with the classroom, which is normally entered from a door on the other side of the timber building.

Low wooden partitions house toys and learning materials for the 30 pupils, plus break up the single room to make smaller zones for different activities.

Steps in a back corner sit below a lowered portion of ceiling to create a small performance space. Additional teaching rooms and bathrooms are located at the back of the bulding.
