The circular volumes, housed under a large eight-shaped roof, provides shade and shelter. The classrooms are clustered around the covered schoolyard, the other facilities embrace an open courtyard. In the center an oval volume includes the kitchen and dining area. Making use of local sea kelp, hand-shaped brick, thatch, mud and mango wood, will minimise ecologic and cost impact. Although widely available in the oceans, kelp is rarely used as a building material. It has great insulating and interior climate qualities, it’s self-impregnating as it has a salt content that prevents bacterial growth- and above all non-flammable.
