Biri and Mach Architects Complete Nest – João de Barro Module
Ninho – João de Barro module from Biri and Mach Architects in the Vila Ninho School promotes the participation of the community and adaptable learning rooms in Brazil. The room is located in the Cerrado region in Minas Gerais and uses A modular Gate and natural materials for creating flexible and appealing educational environments and examine the role of the physical environment in pedagogical practice. The non -profit social initiative, founded in 2017, is in a protected environmental area and is based on four pillars: to clarify children, strengthen families, transform communities and multiply efficient organizations.
Since 2018 the School has occupied a 14,000 square meter property in Lagoa Santa, where the first physical structures were installed, including the Galpão João de Barro. With classrooms, administrative areas and support areas that have already been determined WoodGlass, polycarbonate, drying wall and industrial systems. Parents and legal guardians can also contribute to construction with wood.

The Modular Vila Ninho School invites you to participate in the participation of joint participation
Biri (see more Here) and do architects' (see more Here) The design concept for the Vila Ninho School is directed by principles of sustainability, integration into the environment and the pedagogical innovation in order to transform the built environment into an active agent in the upbringing of children. The architectural proposal is based on a modular grid of 2 × 2 meters and construction modules of 36 square meters, which enables the flexibility and adaptation of the rooms over time.
The design of the space takes into account the environmental comfort and sensory experience of the students. Natural lighting is improved by skylight and overhead light, while soft colors and suitable materials contribute to well -being and energy efficiency. The school uses artificial lighting systems with LED technology and powerful heat insulation on roofs and walls in order to further optimize energy consumption and to promote ideal learning conditions. The implementation of rainwater use and the reuse of gray water is also planned, which shows an engagement for the sustainability of ecological sustainability.
Ninho – João de Barro Module at Biri's children's school and Mach Architects
Biri and Mach Arquitetos try to integrate the school infrastructure into the local ecosystem. This includes the progressive reconstruction of the local flora of the gallery balance, which divides the country and forms the constant conservation area, whereby the buffer removal is fully respected by each bank of the Capão da onça -bach. A technical flora reconconal institution project collects seeds, and seedlings of regional species are produced in a kindergarten with a capacity of 1,072 seedlings. Pupils, parents and teachers will actively participate in planting a area of 0.67 hectares, promoting environmental education and a sense of belonging.
The school extension is organized in different sectors, including the João de Barro camp sector, which is renovated with thermal and accessible improvements. Near the vegetable garden in the forest and app sector, new one-story buildings are being built, in which educational and cultural modules such as library, technology laboratory, music room as well as dance and theater rooms are housed, which are carefully installed in the existing vegetation. The accessibility is also guaranteed by increased sidewalks, stairs and foils. In the meantime, the sports field, changing rooms, cafeteria and accommodation for researchers will also have suitable structural solutions such as metal binders and ribbed plates with skylights.
Use of a modular network and natural materials to create a flexible and appealing educational environment
All physical interventions should minimize the environmental impact and respect the topography and natural features of the site. The existing nature serves as a starting point for the development of the project and leads everything from the implementation of the buildings to the selection of the materials. The school area is not only designed as a teaching site, but as an educational instrument itself, in which every environmental element can become an agent of learning and social transformation. Through the combination of conscious architecture, sustainable practices, high -quality education and commitment in the community, the Vila Ninho school project exemplifies how the physical environment can take on an essential pedagogical role in contemporary pedagogical practice, not only the knowledge, but also the citizenship, the care of the environment and social responsibility.
