PROJET D'UNE ECOLE PRIMAIRE AU SENEGAL

Project idea

Is architecture just the satisfaction of practical and economic needs?
Not only that, it must help promote a culture, tell a story.
Which led us to densify the culture more in our design.
Our concept brings us back to the palaver tree the organization of the primary school is done around the courtyard. This facilitates the interrelations between them.
The Laboratory area has easy access and has an empty space for outdoor work if necessary and the kitchen nearby, designed in traditional models and an outdoor space for outdoor preparation if necessary.
The toilets are also traditional and isolated given the odors and next to a barrel installation that collects water and filters an advantage for the lack of water.
The use of the brickwork will allow good air ventilation.
Administration at the main entrance for better visibility and control.
