The design task was to re-order the main entrance of a school, a beautiful historical square designed as a roundabout, with dense circulation at peak hours which complicated vehicle and pedestrian entrance. The solution was based on finding the right balance between the areas designed for pedestrians, vehicles and parking plots, as well as defining these areas without disrupting the existent historical architectural concept. The new design has increased the safety and ensured that kids got an easier and safer way to school every day.
