The Pavilion is located on the western edge of the campus. The pavilion encloses into a sheltered block.
The basic idea behind the design was to create a multi-functional facility with spaces not only for teaching and dining, but also for the use of the residents of Smečno. All the living spaces are prepared for use for both school activities during school hours and for leisure activities after school. On the first floor there is a proposed hall, used for movement of pupils, but also for their relaxation during breaks and also for independent work with individuals during classes. The canteen is used for serving of meals but also for organizing leisure events for the schoolchildren and Smečno citizens.
The building consists of two horizontal masses and a vertically staircase. In order to soften the mass, a significant overlap of the upper wooden floor above the ground floor with black panels and glazed surfaces was used. This gives the pavilion the impression of a low floating mass.
The curvilinear shape of the hall changes the perspective of the space, deliberately shortening the space as you approach and lengthening it as you look towards the entrance. This creates the impression of a telescopic view overlooking a composition of existing buildings and greenery.
The multifunctional concept of the building also incorporates HVAC elements, that have multiple functions, or serve for multiple spaces, e.g. underfloor heating in the warm months using a reversible heat pump to cool the building structure and thus improve the climate. Similarly central ventilation with heat recovery is also used, which alternates the operation of individual rooms according to their time use. The ventilation switches to the residence hall during teaching hours and prepares the air for breaks, then ventilates the classrooms between lessons. Another element that significantly affects the quality of utility is the automatic control of CO2 levels in classrooms to improve pupils attention.
