The project is based on a number of principles: environmental and economic sustainability; the importance of the outdoor environment in learning processes and, therefore, the preservation of natural stimulation; full digital, motor and sensory accessibility; social sustainability and the well-being of all segments of the population; and safety. It develops research on the potential of the ecological approach as a model for designing an integrated school, oriented toward the individual, his or her life experience and the exercise of active citizenship. The school presents itself as a «unique and integrated educational landscape» in which the «places» of learning, although aimed at diversified activities, present characters of habitability, flexibility, functionality, comfort and well-being: some of greater specialization (classrooms, ateliers, laboratories, space for individual learning) some of medium specialization and high flexibility (area for play and sports, multifunctional classrooms) others of connection that become relational and offer different modalities for informal individual and group activities (central square, informal and relaxation spaces) The school is organized as a large cluster, around a collective cluster, the Great Square, four elements are aggregated, three contain the classrooms and laboratories, the fourth houses the administration and auditorium. The educational units that each contain three classrooms and a laboratory are clustered around a common space: the Informal Learning Gallery.

Clusters are independent educational units but connected to the central space creating a true «internal learning landscape.» They are expanded and flexible learning environments that can rely on a multiplicity of other places that accompany and reinforce the educational action. The dimensions allow for activities in small and large groups as well as individuals, with the use of flexible furniture capable of generating different configurations. The cluster «is a home base, from which one starts and to which one returns, characterized by great flexibility and variability of use.» One of the clusters is sports-oriented with a psychomotor lab and outdoor health care area. Each cluster houses a section of the school with the three classrooms, a laboratory the services, the central space for informal and collective activities and a terrace space that we have called outside-in, a place of transition but also of rest, shaded and covered but open to the outside space. The clusters converge toward the center of the school to create an open and fluid space but can be separated from the central plaza with a system of sliding doors.
