Here is architecture building of Gjerdrum Secondary School located in Akershus, Norway. The building was designed by Kristin Jarmund Architects. Gjerdrum Secondary School is educational building design with adjacent outdoor areas will together with the future sports facilities be a coherent complex with both functional and architectonic qualities. The roof is shaped as the terrain folded up from the ground. The tilted wall towards south become the stand for the sports fields and can also be used for teaching purposes for smaller groups. Under the roof all the schools functions are pushed under. An open landscape with smaller volumes, as houses within the house, creates a rich inner school atmosphere. Because of the compact building volume we have achieved short distances and almost no corridors. The compact plan invites to activity and use, with openness and connectivity in the inner school landscape.

The three different years uses three different areas within the plan, and there’s an emphasis on the use of flexibility in spatial solutions and possibilities for multi use and shared functions. Different parts of the school can be closed to create spaces that can be used separately at night time.
