‘A highly skilful and insightful treatment of volumes and space, set into a complex urban situation. Playgrounds are placed on both ground and roof to make the most of the limited site. The scale and proportions, and the material treatment and details, are well designed throughout and seem to be organically integrated in the context in a timeless way. The learning environment is created around contemporary principles of learning, with well-proportioned spaces, creating long-term flexibility.’ Dorte Mandrup
