In the enlargement and renovation of a private girls' school into the Shizouka Taisei Junior School & High School - due to falling birth rate - collaboration between grades and environmental comfort were seen as the most important factors. Designed by Itsuko Hasegawa Atelier and located in Shizuoka, Japan, the design is a response to these considerations as well as site constraints and the relationship to its context.
