School Bridge

Outline
Designed as a public space/access for a traditional village, the elementary school is located above a stream, connecting two earthen buildings. The facade is covered with slender louvers and a floating cable-suspended steel bridge at the bottom. Since only two classrooms and a library were required as the functions of the elementary school, all of them are located on the bridge.
