Flowing, free-formed space, a biophilic approach, an indoor grove – the concept of the Jedlik Ányos High School in Csepel creates a living urban space in the new campus. The construction renewed an old school building and added a spacious new wing with visionary architectural design. One of the important issues in the process of finding a form was how to extend the existing school building from the mid-20th century and how to connect it to the new 21st-century part. The old wing has been given a functional clean-up, retaining the existing classrooms and teachers’ rooms.
The new part includes IT laboratories, language, literature, and media rooms, which are suitable for new teaching methods, group work, and studio work. This wing includes the community functions, such as a theater, the great hall with a chapel, and the dining room, as well as the physical education and related service functions. This addition has been created to present today’s innovative design and technology.
