ECO BUILDING PROJECT
“The meeting space”
The objective of this activity is to imagine a “beside the school” eco-building, dedicated to pupils , where they could meet, do coworking, rest and have quiet moments, respecting as many eco-construction rules as possible.
Pupils of different countries involved in the project should produce plans, and models maybe using wood or cork or cardboard
Mathematical constraints
- To honour our Greek guests, the building must contain proportions, calculus or shapes making reference to the old Greek mathematicians: Pythagoras, Thales…
- Dimensions of the building must not exceed two hundred squared meters on the floor; the height must not exceed three meters.
- The plan must contain different views of the building
- The model will be transported by plane (for Spain, Italy and France): imagine something that can be disassembled. You can choose the reducing scale
- Be creative with the form of the building!
Other constraints
- Imagine a solution to cool the building without air conditioned: open windows to make an air circulation, plants, water bonds…
- Building must be autonomous concerning electricity
- Building must be eco-responsible for materials used: wood, stones, straw… Try to propose recycled material
- There must be different spaces in the building plan: one space for coworking, one to rest, one meeting space
- You must design a one floor building
