Entry Description

Shenzhen Futian Hongling Mangrove School is embraced by a dynamic city fabric that located in between the Shenzhen CBD and Hong Kong. To implement a modern learning model, the design creates a ‘Futian loop’, namely ‘Knowledge Loop’, ‘Social Loop’ and ‘Physical Loop’.
The design adopts a people-centric approach that includes a series of energy-efficient measures. High performance glazing glasses and external shadings are used to reduce the heat gain. With the porous design of the building base, the design provides cross natural ventilation to reducing the risks of infectious diseases.
