School for Disabled Children in Hellersdorf, Berlin
Forming part of an educational centre on the eastern edge of the city, the school serves the needs of seriously disabled children. The development occupies the entire site area and is divided into two sections: a classroom tract, and a sports and therapy building. Linking the two sections is an unheated corridor in which the entrance is situated and which screens off the playground from the road. (The architects’ competition entry proposed a traffic-free play street between the different parts of the centre, but it was not possible to realize this.
