Description

MNLA were commissioned to improve the visibility and appearance of the entry into Paraparaumu Primary school.

Our approach was to open up the main pedestrian entry by creating a courtyard between the schools heritage hall and dental
clinic.

Repeating wall elements at pedestrian and vehicular entry points helped to articulate access into the school while a new fence between these walls helped to protect the lawns and planted areas.

Simple paving materials helped to keep the project within budget while adding spatial defi nition and variety.
