too Kool for Skool

The new Peggs junior boys school is one school building that is truly “too Kool for Skool”. The project aim was to create a silhouette that would blend with the surrounding heritage residential street-scape that represented a typical heritage home. The external shape is also expressed internally creating a cloud like ceiling which also assists with cooling the building in the warmer months. The use of the black gloss bricks creates striking drama set against the clouds and sky.
