Mimram used a series of 'stacking blocks' that give the appearance of being pivotedas a way to overcome numerous planning constraints and provide maximum volume.
Designed with students in mind, the new school aims to allow students to 'experience' the study of architecture, with focus on its shared spaces to aid student interaction and collaboration.
