Wahroonga Preparatory School by GGF Architects
This rainbow-colored school, located in Australia, was designed by GGF Architects . The bright exterior draws much attention from the street and echoes the stained glass window of the adjacent church. It looks like a giant LEGO building.

would like to see the interior.
This is simply amazing found this through the design milk twitter page. I could see my future house looking like this, the colors make it alive.

Really great space from what I can see. Colors are very appropriate for school. This seems like it would be a very dynamic learning environment and a place I would want to go to learn!
oh yes i’d like to see the interior too.
Es realmente asombrosa, espectacular. Lo niños estarán bastante contentos por tener esta escuela. Habría que seguir este ejemplo por acá también y terminar con las escuelas que parecen cárceles.
It’s not amazing, it’s pretty cheap really. It’s a step in the right direction maybe, a very tiny, timid one, but the architecture and its bland, asensual cladding (this damn stuff is on EVERY new building nowadays, have you noticed?) is stock-standard ‘post-modern’ pennywise shammery, not much relieved by making it ‘all the colours of the rainbow’. That, say I, is for amateurs. This is your typical funfair facade, with no substance, lacking only a triangle with a circle cut out on top.
Considering it was a pre-existing building on a heritage site with a local council who are highly conservative and an elementary school budget, I’d say the fact it even got made is pretty impressive.
And asensual, say I, is not a word.
