ABSTRACT
The classrooms have their own colors, both inside and outside, to help children recognize and differentiate each one. On the inside the school is organized around a central oval courtyard, inspired in the shape of a uterus and providing a microclimate and a better view of the rooms. The courtyard is more public than the entryway and the multipurpose room. In its northeast corner it opens out onto the only bit of nature in the area: a park, a creek and views of the massif of the Montseny Natural Park in the background. Wooden beams radiate from the center of the courtyard, which is presided by a fountain and a noble oak tree, as if it were a sacred place. They are the symbols around which school life is organized and give rise to its name, “La Font del Rieral”.
