Nankai LiangJiang Secondary School

Nankai LiangJiang

Nankai LiangJiang is a secondary school built in Chongqing, China. The campus is planned around a ten-minute idea, so students can move between spaces within ten minutes during a compact daily schedule. The main building is a circular structure measuring 200 meters in diameter and is made with a pre-fabricated steel structure. Classrooms, offices, a library, a science hall, a theatre and a school museum are arranged within. Perforated aluminum panels reduce glare, and a parametric steel lattice forms an undulating roof that moderates sunlight and rain.

Nankai LiangJiang Secondary School by gad was featured as an exceptional illustration of architectural design by the A' Design Award.
