ORD INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL K-12 IB board School
TYPE : Academic project, 5th Semester SITE : Noida Sector 134, India Designed in group of 2
10 | ORD
PROJECT OVERVIEW The aim of the project was to design a school affiliated with the IB board that caters to 2400 students. The big idea was to focus on the holistic development of the child and provide them with a flexible environment while also keeping in mind sustainability and the climatic response to the site.
STRATEGY The geometrical form of the school blocks was primarily driven by the effort to minimize the solar radiation on the blocks and then courtyards were introduced subsequently which would create micro-climates helping in the passive cooling of the block and at the same time provide an inside-outside interaction space within the blocks.
Extruding the site and dividing it into chunks of optimum orientation to minimize heat gain
Staggering the axes of the blocks and scooping out voids from the centre to form courtyards
Connecting the blocks via bridges and staggering the built form in both plan and elevation to break the form and incorporate mutual shading
Plugging in the program and treating the facade in response to the climate

The majority of the classrooms are oriented such that they receive either the north or the south light satisfying the lux levels, and receive no eastern or western direct sunlight. The eastern and the western faces are occupied by labs as they are not occupied by the same set of students throughout the day, and by toilets that act as buffer spaces to tackle radiation Both, the junior library and the senior library sit on the northern side of the building allowing the influx of maximum north light. Also, the libraries are placed away from the classrooms with the vertical circulation core in between that act as acoustic buffers The activity rooms are placed on the southern side bridging both blocks, away from the classrooms to ensure minimum disturbance in the classrooms

The bedrooms of the children are placed at a higher level to avoid any disturbances. The music room is placed alongside the bedroom or the children as per the brief The game/party room and terrace is provided at the first level which facilitates a semi-private leisure space without inhibiting the privacy of the house members The courtyard is complemented by an Amaltas tree that sits in the centre of the courtyard, which improves the well being of the family and at the same time accentuates the spatial quality of the courtyard
The large courtyard serves as an important component of the passive cooling system and also transforms into a large gathering space for special occasions

PROJECT OVERVIEW Facade design | Iteration 1 The project brief was to design a facade skin that screens the facia of the office from the sun and also provides shade forming a semi open seating space in the verandah near the entry. The square from the company logo was translated into the skin design by placing a grid of the squares and varying their sizes based on atrractor curves on the surface resulting in screen with a gradient of squares of different sizes.

Facade design | Iteration 2 A series of perforated twisted screens were arranged vertically on the facade which allowed light to partially pass through, keeping the building cool and forming interesting sciagraphy patterns on the building skin.
