Top 5 most populous megacities worldwide
The United Nations has released fresh data on the most populous cities in the world. Let's take a look at the top megacities by population.
Liyuan Middle School (China)
The campus of Liyuan Middle School is situated in downtown Wuxi, Eastern China. The building itself is divided by the river and is located on both sides. The two parts of the building are connected by a bridge corridor that contains a canteen with panoramic windows. The cherry on the cake is the facade pattern designed to resemble the waves of the water. The building incorporates recreation zones to help students socialize and interact. Apart from common windows, extra round-shaped windows are arranged on the roof.
Ecole Jean-Moulin (France)
The unusual school building is located in the North of France. Architects had the idea of fitting the school into the landscape. As a result, they designed the building as a huge green wave. The project consists of two buildings surrounded by canals, hills, and multi-storied houses. The smaller building of the elementary school looks like hovering over the building of the middle school. Architects implemented the idea of a casual and friendly atmosphere making kids feel at ease. Such an environment was created by a wave-shaped design, green grass on the roof, and a large interior space filled with light.
Hessenwald (Germany)
The Hessenwald School is situated in a glade among a few villages in Darmstadt. However, this exquisite building can hardly be described as a common village school. The whole building has enough room for elementary, middle, and high school as well as a public activity center. Both adults and kids may have various activities for their leisure. They play musical instruments, watch movies, and look after plants. The building is divided into three pavilions that surround the recreation center. There are mobile reading platforms in the pavilions for each grade-level area. The outdoor space contains a school garden with a laboratory and a tree nursery. The laboratory windows are made of special sun-protective glass. Desks in classrooms are designed in blurred shapes that fit together into the common large blot.
Mouriz School (Portugal)
This is a two-storied school center, including a kindergarten and an elementary school located in Paredes, Northern Portugal. The kindergarten is arranged on the ground floor and the elementary school is on the first floor. Architects carefully designed the project bearing in mind the specific needs of infants and younger school kids. Interestingly, the ceiling follows the same slopes and curves as the roof. The project delivers the idea of playfulness and a creative environment which contributes to the versatile development of kids.
Nord-Osterdal School (Norway)
The school in East Norway is surrounded by hills overlooking the national park. The main building material is solid wood as forestry is a key industry in the area. The eco-friendly design is complemented by rubber floors and concrete walls on the ground floor. Every classroom has panoramic windows letting in plenty of sunlight. The premises which lack windows such as a cinema, a gym, and a canteen are arranged in the core. Architects implemented the idea of the school’s integration into the landscape.The United Nations has released fresh data on the most populous cities in the world.
