Design a new school in Chýně

© WBA

Open international bilingual architectural competition for the design of a new primary school in the Czech municipality of Chýně.

In Chýně, the residents are well aware that a new school is a long-term investment particularly for the future life of the town as a whole. They would like to use the architectural competition to find a suitable design meeting their sense of the environment where their children will be educated, but equally a social centre for all local residents to meet. The council of the municipality has contacted the Centre for Central European Architecture to serve as the competition organizer.

The mission of the school is not only to offer education for pupils of the first (1st-5th grades) and second (6th-9th grades) levels, but also to satisfy the social, cultural, sporting and educational needs of the entire local community. It should take its place as a magnet for communal life, and thus serve as the proposed centre of the new section of the township. In the past ten years, Chýně – situated on the immediate outskirts of Prague – has grown rapidly: the number of residents has, because of new construction, increased nearly four times over. The school will be situated close to the newly revitalised park complex of Višňovka.

Prizes will be awarded to the three best designs. Financial rewards are set at 300,000 CZK (approximately 11,000 EUR) for first place, 150,000 CZK (approximately 5,500 EUR) for second place, and 75,000 CZK (approximately 2.700 EUR) for third place. An honourable mention sum is also assumed of 75,000 CZK for striking and original designs that did not make it into the final three.
