dhd school
Competition entry for the new Dimo Hadzi Dimov primary school in Karpos, Skopje. The structure and form of the school is defined on one side with the program, the character of the context, the requested conditions and rules, and on the other side the effort to make it into a place of knowledge and play – a building that brings people together, analogue to the democratic society and a critique of the global tendencies. Through various ways of reacting to the given conditions, the volume of the school is distanced from the road, gradually it opens towards the south and then suits to the diminutive urban fabric, while generating open spaces with varying playful character and usage.
