Metis Montessori Lyceum Amsterdam

renovating and remodeling a Montessori school School renovation 2011-2013 Atelier PRO was proud to complete the renovations of the Metis Montessori Lyceum in 2013, one of the four Montessori schools in Amsterdam. Full of character, the former Hoogere Burgerschool (HBS) in Eastern Amsterdam looks forward to a bright new future ahead. Located on the edge of Oosterpark, the robust building from 1904 appears majestic from the outside and contemporary and stylish from the inside. It’s a place full of memories, where students will prepare for their upcoming journeys ahead. The shape of the solid building construction is a square with a large plane tree in the centre. Completely surrounded by green, the school is part of the urban plan restructured Oosterpark.
