PRIMARY SCHOOL IN FANO, Design Architect: ALESSANDRO ROLLINO, Collaborator: MICAELA TOLIO_This project is about the realization of a Primary School belonging to a wider School complex in Fano. The punctual analysis of the context where Nature ranges from the northern hills to the southern agricultural landscape of the Metauro valley led to an almost horizontal development of the building, so that the characteristic profile of the hills stands out. The overall spaces of the School have the typical colors and textures of that place: plaster and bricks with neutrals and muted hues -related to soil and stone- have also a strong response to touch. Each classroom has an own peculiar color for doors and windows so that the children can easily recognize the classroom they belong to. Spaces are colorful, light, easy to grasp and never dull; waiting areas, sitting places, upwards and downwards ramps, balconies, walls and backsides where children can hide or spaces where they can withdraw: different bodily reactions to the spaces help children to fully develop their physical and psychological capabilities.
