These two elements are combined and erected individually at each location - as required - as one or three-storey buildings. A new construction project will begin every four to six weeks. The first of these is the Nordhorn elementary school, where the symbolic ground-breaking ceremony took place at the beginning of June 2023, marking the start of the overall project.

Continuously rising pupil numbers, evolving pedagogical needs and concepts and the legal entitlement to all-day care in elementary school from 2026 have resulted in increased space and area requirements. The planning took place in close consultation with the respective school; there is no one-size-fits-all concept, instead the individual characteristics of each school are taken into account in every planning step.

The new buildings are carefully integrated into the respective school grounds by matching the outdoor facilities and the color scheme of the facades. The efficient and elementary construction method allows for a comparatively short construction time - without interrupting school operations. Bright and friendly room atmospheres, as well as color concepts that support learning and state-of-the-art technical equipment with night cooling in summer and optimal use of daylight, solar heat generation and external shading ensure flexible and efficient educational buildings and sustainable rooms for the pupils.
