spatial practices; architecture project; competition

City School – Projetar.org Competition was a project developed for a national architecture competition that proposed a replicable school model for all Brazilian municipalities. The proposal responds to the challenge of designing for a highly diverse context by developing a flexible system, capable of generating different spatial configurations.

The school is understood as an interface between infrastructure, city, and community. Learning extends beyond the classroom and unfolds across different spatial conditions, organized through varying degrees of privacy.

Spaces such as libraries and sports areas operate as intermediate zones that can be shared with the surrounding community, reinforcing the school’s role as a space of exchange and collective life.

The project received an honorable mention for its adaptability and critical engagement with the competition brief.
