MMW used the history in the area around the site as inspiration for the design.
The soft curves represent the dragon in the legend that was said to be living in the old silver mines behind
the site.
The idea is to have the school as a new focal point in the area surrounded by historical buildings and
old industry, representing the creativity of the school.

The main structure is the concrete load bearing façade, with elevator shafts and staircases as the only load
bearing elements inside the building.
The concrete in the façade is prefabricated elements with the size 2.400 × 5.200mm.
The choice of materials is based on the idea of establishing a building with passive cooling and heating.
The exposed concrete on the façade and on each level has thermal mass.

It is designed to house 550 students and about 60 employees with a total floor area of 6032m2.
