Also Office designed the new Lošbates School in the Czech Republic as a crystalline two storey structure, organized around two courtyards, with primary classrooms on the ground floor and secondary classrooms on the first floor. On both floors, a single-loaded corridor expands along its route to incorporate unprogrammed flexible space for after school activities and informal learning opportunities. The gymnasium occupies a separate building which breaks down the overall mass to achieve a more appropriate scale relationship with its residential neighbors. Its shared programs are open to the public via a plaza that defines a generous urban space for events and gatherings.
