Aoba-Japan International School Hikarigaoka Campus

Renovation of the international school using a closed elementary school. School partitions and RC non-bearing walls were removed to create a single classroom without dividing the classrooms and corridors. After removing the partitions, lighting was installed as if weaving threads throughout the space to create a sense of unity while strongly linking the separated spaces, creating a learning space for a variety of educational activities that is not bound by the traditional classroom unit.
