Tianjian Primary School, located in the central area of Futian, Shenzhen, is a public elementary school built in 2004 and tightly enclosed by high-rise residential buildings and public buildings.
The original school had a capacity of 24 classes, but with the continuous increase in demand for school places in the area, the school needs to expand to 30 classes.
However, the campus land is very limited and there is no room for external expansion.
The complete preservation of the original teaching buildings has become a mandatory prerequisite for the renovation.
How to complete degree expansion without demolishing the existing main teaching building? How to make up for the lack of supporting facilities such as wind and rain playgrounds, canteens, and functional classrooms in small spaces? At the same time, it is necessary to deal with the hot climate in Shenzhen and the strong western sun on the east and west facades, and to handle the interface relationship between the campus and the surrounding high-density cities, which has become the core challenge of this renovation and expansion.
