The project involves the demolition and reconstruction of the Tagliabue Nursery School, creating an innovative, sustainable and safe educational environment for six sections of 30 children. The compact building with a pitched roof combines tradition and modernity, harmonizing with the urban context. Access is from Via Villa Ambrogio, while the public spaces extend along Via Edmondo De Amicis, offering flexible environments with movable walls for multipurpose activities. The structure, with almost zero energy consumption (NZEB -20%), is made of waterproofed concrete and dry infill, with panel or stapled sheet metal cladding to optimize costs, insulation and installation times. The spaces are distributed to maximize energy efficiency: the classrooms are exposed to the east to take advantage of natural light, while the multipurpose spaces are located to the west. The building integrates photovoltaic and solar thermal systems, underfloor heating, ceiling cooling and forced ventilation, with management via a BMS based on BIM. The garden, considered an integral part of the educational path, includes an educational garden, a sensory labyrinth, a fairytale forest and play areas, encouraging the connection between internal and external teaching.
