COUNTRY: TURKEY

The school is in the center of Buldan and easily accessible. Thanks to the small size of the city, sustainability and environmentalist approach in transportation were encouraged with the bicycle park created at the entrance.Thanks to the low-rise structure of the building, large accessible viewing terraces have been formed. Each class has its own agricultural gardens on these terraces. Thus, every part of the school, including the roof, has been evaluated as a green area. There are no garden walls at the boundary of the school plot. In this way, the school garden can be used by students outside of school time. On the other hand, Three Courtyards with a strong spatial effect were created for the private use of the school. These courtyards are surrounded by arches that we often see in the old public buildings of Buldan.
The First Courtyard is the entrance courtyard. There are preserved trees in the courtyard. In addition, a spectacle was created with the Cypress trees to be planted between Kemer.
The second courtyard is the school's largest and multi-purpose courtyard. 3 of the valuable trees preserved in the existing land remain in this courtyard. Grown beautiful trees give this courtyard a natural beauty, while also relaxing it acoustically. All ceremonies and exhibitions in the school will be held here.  This amphitheater provides sitting and resting opportunities for students on normal school days. By offering a strong connection to the first floor, both floors are provided with the same facilities and beauties. The academic season coincides with the times when the weather is cold and/or rainy. This indoor courtyard allows all kinds of activities to be held without being affected by seasonal conditions.
In the third courtyard, a dining hall, open space for sports and other lessons is provided. The dining hall, teachers' room and library overlook this courtyard. There are preserved trees in this courtyard as well.
