SITE AND PROGRAM

PNR SOCIETY, BHAVNAGAR

A Kindergarten section of the school is to be introduced for 60 students with Cerebral Palsy.

CONCEPT

GREEN PLAY

NATURE IN SPACE

SPECIAL SCHOOL FOR CHILDREN WITH CEREBRAL PALSY ABOUT THE DESIGN: The idea of the school has been reinterpreted as a playground, where the child is free to make discoveries as they explore their surroundings and is designed in a manner that they are more connected with nature. The rigidity of the structure is broken with curves that become guiding lines for movement. The wall that guides becomes flooring and continues into a furniture element. The material choice is restrained to adhere to a neutral colour palette with calming blues and greens. Natural elements such as plants and water features have been integrated to make the atmosphere more pleasing and calm. 6

The concept explored for designing is Biophilia, which means “love for nature”. Research suggests that Biophilic design can help reduce stress, enhance creativity and clarity of thought, improve our well-being and expedite healing. (Barton & Pretty, 2010).
