Nuova Scuola Secondaria di 1° grado a Puos d'AlpagoAlpago (Italy)

The regular, monolithic figure of the horizontal building, blending into the surrounding landscape with the mountains behind it and characterised by the compact brick colour of the external building envelope, strikes an effective, pleasing contrast with the terrazzo seminato flooring inside. Set into the light background of the porcelain stoneware tiles are chips in various grey tones and earthy shades, creating an effective irregular pattern that complements the rigour of the overall architecture.
