The main idea behind the project is to improve the overall architectural, operational and energy efficiency of the primary school in Postřekov while respecting the original volume, structural and urban design. The aim of the design was to create a contemporary, welcoming and inspiring space for education that responds sensitively to the local context while strengthening the identity of both the school and the community.
The architectural concept is based on a simple composition of rectangular volumes with flat roofs, which are clearly divided according to the individual functions of the building. The façade works with material and colour articulation that refers to the tradition of local craftsmanship – especially Postřekov canvas – while playfully reflecting the school environment. The variety of colours of the Cetris boards, complemented by a wooden grid and larch cladding, brings a visual identity to the public space that is both contemporary and rooted in tradition.
The layout changes were guided by a desire for openness, variability and better operational links. The entrance hall has been transformed into an open multifunctional space with a mobile cloakroom system. The dining room has been connected to the hall and supplemented with a stepped amphitheatre for leisure and cultural use. The project also works with a vision of a future extension, which will enable further development of the building's capacity and community use.
All interventions were designed with an emphasis on energy efficiency and long-term sustainability, while maintaining clarity and simplicity of operation. The result is a school that is not only a place of learning, but also a lively community centre that reflects both its present and its traditions.

The project addresses structural modifications to the Postřekov Primary School with a focus on reducing energy consumption, improving operational connections and accessibility. The building is designed as a two-wing structure with a flat roof made of Spiroll reinforced concrete panels. The structural system is wall-based, with load-bearing structures made of ceramic blocks, reinforced concrete ceilings and strip foundations.
The facades are designed as a combination of a contact insulation system and ventilated facades with larch wood cladding and coloured cement-bonded particle boards. The colour scheme of the facade refers to the school environment and local textile tradition (canvas).
Open entrance hall with mobile cloakrooms, connection to the dining room and creation of a stepped amphitheatre. The sanitary facilities have been redesigned, including new showers and toilets for teachers. The headmaster's office and staff room have been modified with an emphasis on functional and operational links. The possibility of adding a second floor above the entrance hall has been proposed.
The floors are tiled, PVC, carpeted and screeded according to operational requirements, and the walls are finished with stucco plaster and ceramic tiles. The windows are plastic with triple glazing (Uw = 0.8 W/m²K), supplemented with external blinds. The roof is insulated with EPS with a final covering of PVC foil.
The technical systems include lighting with automatically changing colour temperature of the emitted light according to a set time curve and ventilation with heat recovery. The project comprehensively addresses accessibility – all entrances are accessible by ramps, and the height difference between the pavilions is overcome by a platform.
The school has a capacity of 110 pupils.
