Compagnie Architecture: Frida Kahlo School

Compagnie Architecture, based in Bordeaux, discuss the Frida Kahlo School project.

The Frida Kahlo School is in Bruges, a city a few kilometres from Bordeaux. The project had three objectives; creation of an innovative school, achieving a E4C2 environmental standard and the inclusion of a varied programme.

Using Felix Guattari’s theory of the ecosophy and the ‘three ecologies’, the project is built within its means, focuses on ideas of communality and reconnects the user with nature.

This film forms part of an online series curated by the Architecture Foundation in partnership with arc en rêve.
