PHILIPPINES THE STUDY 068
AREA EXPLORATION To provide choice and facilitate all kinds of academic lessons, DB&B planned for a number of classrooms that can accommodate 3 to 17 students. Each classroom features a unique environment, reaching to a sense of wonder in the students. Because learning should be fun, the vibrant colour palette work together with the whimsical lighting to create interesting settings. Visitors and students can peer into the classrooms through the glass partitions, creating an open environment despite the compact size of the overall area. The choice of furniture also supports learning by featuring ‘stories’ behind their creation. For example, the chairs and tables used in the rooms are locally crafted to give a context to the design process. Each room also featured a unique look that is marked by distinct door colours, creating ‘destinations’ for exploration and imagination.
