Green School, one school from green roof opened its doors last September in the western suburbs of Paris, in Boulogne Billancourt. The new school is characterized by a large green roof.
It is not just a school building, but a center that aims to promote science, the biodiversity and Sustainable Development through its own agriculture and the lessons it will host.
The project was carried out by the Parisian company Architects Chartier-Dalix which won an ad hoc competition in 2011. The school has eighteen classrooms, and a sports facility open to local residents.
La public gym it rises to a height of 12 meters, while the didactic spaces are mainly found on the ground and first floors. Each area of the school will be accompanied by a green park furnished with natural materials.
One was made "living" wall full of cracks, interstices and holes of various sizes that can accommodate vegetation and small birds to encourage protection of biodiversity animal and plant even in an urban environment.
The green school project seeks to introduce elements of the natural environment into the urban context. The biodiversity protection wall increases the potential habitat types for the various living species that could populate these places.
The hanging garden not only promotes biodiversity but also translates into one pleasant view from the outside for those who live in apartments near the school. The green roof is distributed over several levels thanks to the hanging gardens. In such a school, subjects such as natural sciences, ecology and organic agriculture should be on the agenda. We really hope so.
