This project is based on a complete new construction of the entire complex. The alternative proposal to retain and adapt parts of the existing complex was rejected, as renovating the existing buildings, while a major undertaking, would still not provide the facilities required to run the school in a way that meets contemporary demands.
To a large extent, resource-saving and recyclable building materials are used.
