The new school by Vin Varavarn Architects consists of 3 new secondary student classrooms to replace an existing one which have been destroyed by the earthquake. The design requirements specified that the new classroom building must be earthquake resistant, easily constructed by local workers, requiring as low budget as possible. The design principle is to challenge with the traditional believe that the enclosed classroom would encourage students to concentrate more with their studies. In contrast, our new classroom concept will be like an open pavilion with no walls, which totally open up to the beautiful natural surroundings. The natural environment will be creating a relaxing atmosphere which can benefit their learning development.

The building become as a long pier that connected to the ground on the back side and reached into the air on the front side, utilizing the land slope problem to create an extra semi-outdoor multi-functions space under the front part of the building. While the back end of the building connected to the ground, provide easy access and can be used as a terrace where student could gather and socialise. The building structure is made of steel, as it provides flexibility and appropriateness in an earthquake prone region. In addition, this type of structure could be constructed quickly.
