LADYBANK OUTDOOR CLASSROOM - INDIVIDUAL DESIGN


SITE PLAN


CROSS SECTION


LONG SECTION


The outdoor classroom project, a live competition, was based in the small village of Ladybank in Fife. The proposal, for the village primary school, was required to facilitate learning and playing for the children.

The proposed solution was a simple portal framed structure which used the sharp decline in the site to allow for a stepped seating area. The curved form related to the existing trees, using their geometry as both a backdrop and focus for the design.

The design also served as a circulation link between the existing enclosed external space created by the school and the characterful back gate, which opens immediately onto a large existing tree surrounded by a vast field.
