The new modular school pavilion in the municipality of Ottenbach blends harmoniously into the existing primary school complex. The timber building houses spaces for psychomotricity and out-of-school care. Thanks to a high degree of prefabrication, the on-site construction time was reduced to six months while maintaining a high standard of execution. With its surrounding veranda, generous windows and single-storey layout, the pavilion combines functionality, sustainability and comfort. The building is fully accessible, equipped with a large photovoltaic system and meets high building physics standards.
