Transforming the German School of Athens, the new outdoor sports facilities earned the First Prize in an invited architectural design competition. Inspired by the school's legacy, the project seamlessly integrates the existing complex with modern athletic spaces. Everything, from running track to bouldering wall, reflects an inviting and vibrant environment.
Utilizing a carefully planned grid system and a playful zig-zag line, the space is efficiently organized. Concrete tribunes and benches enhance the area, while bright blue and yellow floorings create a lively atmosphere, encouraging kids to enjoy physical activity.
This project aims to create a dynamic space for students and athletes alike. It pays respect to the school's past while embracing a bright future.
