high school with psychological and pedagogical centre

The new secondary school in Tarczyn was designed as a key element in organising a sparsely urbanised area, setting the direction for the town's further development. The compact, rectangular structure with a central wooden cylinder creates a clear functional layout centred around a green patio. The building retains a human scale and graduated height, which harmonises with its surroundings and allows for the introduction of green terraces on the top floor.

The land development includes a sequence of recreational spaces, green classrooms, sports fields and a planned area for a future swimming pool, integrated with pedestrian and vehicle routes and tall greenery. The interior is based on the principle of three zones - educational, counselling and sports - arranged around an atrium and illuminated by numerous glazed areas.

The architecture of the classrooms uses natural materials, acoustically varied finishes and large glazing ensuring contact with the landscape. The roof section will feature sensory gardens, beehives and teaching spaces, which will serve as an ecological laboratory for users.

The façade materials - wood and grey brick - create a clear hierarchy of functions and strengthen the relationship with the natural environment.

The structure combines reinforced concrete with extensive use of wood technology, especially in the sports hall and cylindrical patio, minimising the carbon footprint and increasing adaptability. The whole is complemented by environmentally friendly solutions such as photovoltaics, green roofs, water retention and smart energy management system.
