The consolidated building of Lehtikangas is a collection of multipurpose building with educational characteristics located in Mijni, Finland. When approaching the building, the first thing we see is a strong focal area of gray brick. At the first step, this striking building will be built into a functional core, which includes a common restaurant and the center of the building, which is an outstanding architectural part. The space we pass through will bring visitors to the building with its inviting feature. This multipurpose building has a school, a kindergarten and a public library.
The new building replaces the school that was previously built on the site. The new building combines some of the other public functions of the area, and its architectural form is in symbiotic form. The library near the entrance supports the collection of independent information. The home-centered book plan is designed to allow visitors to spend their time in the central part of the site and study in this section.
Elementary schools are located on the northern side of the building. Kindergartens, auxiliary facilities and facilities for physical education, as well as workshops relating to wood and metalwork on the south side of the building. The composition and classification of the various educational units is an open, convertible structure that presents a set of current Finnish educational goals.
Interior walls of the building have bright colors and a quiet background required for daily activities. At the same time, glass surfaces and chairs, sofas and colorful cabinets add to the vitality and vitality of the school. Common spaces for all staff at the center of the building evoke the idea of an integrated learning environment. Elementary students communicate with higher-level visitors in the library and share ideas freely. Students can interact with each other in a variety of ways, without restrictions, with masters who come to the library.
Hallways are like a nucleus where elementary education facilities are considered. But these flexible saloons can be integrated to create a large collaborative space for teamwork. Each floor has its own unique color, which separates the corridors and interior uses and acts as a visual map of the building. The selection of happy colors in these spaces helps to maintain the vitality of the building and gradually changes to darker colors.
The kindergarten collection also includes a small building that comes out of the continuation of the happy colors inside the building. These colors have a positive effect on the space of children under the age of 6 years and have created vitality and vitality in an educational setting with mental attraction.

There is little difference between how the building looks on Revit and how it looks in real life...
By that I mean, for a children's space, it has an industrial, lifeless quality to it.
