Feature：

Project - Located in the densely populated Futian District of Shenzhen, this high school campus by reMIX studio breaks the mold of traditional school design. Challenging the norm of schools as isolated urban islands, the project seamlessly integrates the campus with its surrounding context, becoming a "city within the city." The high-density site, surrounded by towering skyscrapers, prompted the designers to rethink the school typology. By elevating the sports fields and opening up the ground level to the public, the campus becomes a porous, permeable space that encourages interaction between the school and the community. A network of bridges and terraces, dubbed "The Loop," connects the various buildings, creating a three-dimensional circulation system that reduces vertical movement and fosters spontaneous encounters. Beyond just functionality, the design also prioritizes ecological considerations. The campus incorporates a variety of green spaces and landscaping elements, transforming it into a bird-friendly, sponge-like environment that mitigates the effects of the dense urban context. Overall, Futian High School Campus represents a innovative approach to school design, seamlessly blending educational, social, and environmental priorities to create a truly integrated campus experience.
