The first phase of re-designed schoolhouse In Tallinn welcomed children on Sept,1. School works hard to bring fresh air into the building where intensive learning and teaching takes place during long days. The ongoing process of construction works in the former office building will be finished during the next year in order to continue with the new extension.
Tallinn Elementary School is part of Tallinn Secondary School of Science / Tallinna Reaalkool. The concept of interior architecture is inspired of colourful tile floor of the historical main building now in modern monochrome coloring. Frosted glasswalls with yellow linoleum doors are intensive accents of indoor space.
