About the project (provided by the applicant)
Seven sailboats, brought to life by the architects’ imagination in the middle of the forest, await the arrival of their sea. Perhaps the water will never rise this high again, yet the crew keeps preparing and invites you to join them.
The most important thing to take into the future is knowledge and skills. At the White City School, students are taught to build ideal, comfortable cities for living—laying the foundation for tomorrow. And while “learning to swim on land in order to sail the waves of life later” may be an apt metaphor for education, we believe that this land-based knowledge may come in handy in a real storm.
