Preschool of Ait Ahmed / Tommaso Bisogno + BC architects & studies














Text description provided by the architects. The Preschool of Ait Ahmed integrates architectural and landscape design, incorporating community dynamics, bioclimatic and a new vernacular style. In need of educational infrastructure, Goodplanet foundation aims to install a preschool with bioclimatic functioning, as an extension to the existing school building. The building is inspired by a new vernacular from local typologies, materials, and techniques, with a contemporary look, performant bio-climatic functioning and earthquake-proof design.

The preschool is implemented on the highest level of the compound, and gives way to a landscaped strip of playground area with benches and swings, going down the compound. The playground strip creates zones of open play area between strip and compound wall: football area, outside class area, playground area for small kids, playground area for bigger kids.

The preschool itself is pentagonal to open up space outside in relation to rectangular compound walls and to create round space inside which can support alternative teaching techniques such as roundtable teaching. The area is known for lime production, as well as natural stone, resulting in the choice for lime mortared stone masonry. The roof is made of tadelakt of lime on a base of earth-lime. The interior finishing is made of polished “nouss-nouss”, a “half-half” of earth and lime to create a breathable interior plaster which diffuses in indirect sunlight.

Section Detail

The southwest facade has a cavity wall for insulation and a big thermal mass, making the building cool during the day, but warmer through the night until the morning. The northwest to southeast facades have window openings with diagonal reveals to let in a maximum of sunlight. The building is made to confirm the earthquake norms of Morocco, with concrete columns next to facade openings.
