• The project began with a conventional layout but evolved into a child-centric, sensory responsive design based on understanding autism needs. The site’s natural contours guided the shift toward curvilinear forms that create a softer, more welcoming environment.
• Classrooms developed into circular clusters, improving interaction and supervision, while sensory zoning organized spaces into calm to active areas. Circulation spaces became interactive, integrating nature through features like perforated roofs.
• The design finally evolved into a holistic, landscape integrated environment that supports comfort, independence, and growth.
