The Beth Rivka School by ODA\u00a0\u21d2<\/span><\/strong><\/em>\u00a0In Brooklynn\u00a0New York,\u00a0ODA\u00a0created new stacked functions for a school for girls in Crown Heights, in a highly dense urban fabric. Starting with a compact shaped cube, the design of the Beth Rivka\u00a0School\u00a0merges the benefits and the creative constraints of a vertical building. This school project is truly one of a kind.<\/p>\n

The firm researches alternatives for standard typologies, to find solutions for the limited spaces in expanding cities. In fact,\u00a0ODA\u00a0tackles the challenges and potentials of stacked programs and complex verticality. In their approach for the Beth Rivka\u00a0School, the designers made sure to put in place \u201cmore outdoor space to connect inside and outside worlds,\u00a0<\/em>voids shaped and treated as real spaces, gaps taking advantage of orientations, in-between spaces controlled to prevent leftover areas<\/em>, organized layout to maximize walkability.<\/em>\u201d Every element of this composition is independent and stands on its own.<\/p>\n

The 213,000 square-foot building introduced also the concept of a 6th<\/sup>\u00a0fa\u00e7ade, \u201cin the surfaces that define avoid<\/em>\u201d, generating a blurry area, a semi-public space, and a gap of possibilities. Actually, these voids created original experiences and a new dimension. The project consists of a high school, a pre-k, and a community centre, attached to the existing four-story, L-shaped, still functional elementary school. The new components have the same traditional and modern materials as the existing part.<\/p>\n

The new high school has separate access, that leads towards a \u201cbustling atrium connecting lower floors by non-linear stairways<\/em>\u201d. Conventional spaces include classrooms, administration, library, and labs whereas more progressive educational spaces are conceived for video, art and multipurpose rooms. The pre-k also has a distinct entrance opening up to a gathering hall and a playground on its roof. In this part of the school, experimental learning happens in an informal setting, in the four spheres of play. Finally, \u201cbetween the pre-k and the high school sits the shared community facility, equidistant from upper and lower floors and complete with pool, solarium, gym, exercise rooms, auditorium, and two floors of private offices for rent to nonprofit organizations.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n
