With an intention of building a sanctum for the kids, SOUTH VIEW SCHOOL designed by Gurgaon-NCR, India based design studio R+D STUDIO exhibits statuesque, fortified walls that are punctured by a narrow alley that reflect the fort city streetscape meeting at intersections which are the lungs of the settlement.
As one enters through the slender pathway, they are met with a voluminous premise, where the building introduces an illustrious courtyard, symbolic to a city square.
Integrated with recreational and interactive zones, this expansive courtyard then paves way into the various functionalities of the school but also acts as the heart and soul of the kid's alma mater. Keeping up with the standard functionality of an institutional space, the studio took a call to romanticize the building's central core and to amplify its individuality by highlighting its form. Standing tall with its mighty facade and its majestic courtyard, the building proffers a nod to UAE Fort's emblematic architecture.
