A middle and high school in Mexico City reimagined by Rosan Bosch Studio and transformed into a state-of-the-art learning ecosystem that occupies 10,000 sqm on the transformed upper floors of an office building.
The Humanitree School adopts a unique organizational proposal featuring three Learning Ecosystems: Mountain, Forest, and Coast. Inspired by Mexican landscapes, these ecosystems group areas of knowledge and facilitate orientation through the building, promoting a sense of well-being with carefully selected materials and colors.
The pedagogical design strategy incorporates six key learning situations – Discovery, Focus, Collaboration, Creation, Movement, and Encounters – that provide a diverse range of meaningful opportunities in the context of project-based learning.
The learning landscape of the Humanitree School offers a visionary, learner-centered approach to education. Nestled within the same building as the groundbreaking Universidad de la Libertad, the school forms an elegant and seamless bridge to higher academia. The students are offered a glimpse of higher education and invited to imagine their future learning path, a beckoning toward an expansive horizon of lifelong learning.
Within the Mountain Ecosystem, symbolizing progression and achievement, students engage in English, Spanish, and Other Languages, Humanities, Social Sciences, and Communication. This space encompasses admission programs, a library, a cafeteria, media studios, mentoring spaces, and the Flight Club Mountain.
The Forest Ecosystem, representing diversity and intricacy, houses Sciences, Mathematics, Technology, Design, and Arts. Its facilities include science labs, technology, and design labs, art studios, mentoring spaces, and the Flight Club Forest.
The Coast Ecosystem embodies flexibility and fluidity, hosting Physical Education, Theatre, and Music. The space program of this area includes music and drama studios, a multipurpose room, a movement room, focus and mindfulness areas, study corners, Hive 1 Homes, mentoring spaces, and the Flight Club Coast.
