来自英国的CAUKIN Studio与非洲慈善机构MoA合作,用三个月的时间在赞比亚的乡村地区建造了包含4间教室和一间教师办公室的Evergreen学校。MoA成立于2004年,致力于改善女性健康,降低产妇死亡率以及为妇女群体提供与生殖健康相关的帮助。在该项目中,MoA希望通过改善乡村儿童的教育条件来为机构的总体目标做出长期贡献。赞比亚的儿童通常只接受教育至14岁,学校往往供不应求且条件恶劣。
Working in partnership with the charity Mothers Of Africa (MoA), CAUKIN Studio spent 3 months in rural Zambia constructing 4 classrooms and a teacher’s office for Evergreen School. The charity MoA was set up in 2004 with the aim of improving maternal health, reducing maternal mortality and achieving access to reproductive health for all women. MoA quickly realised that by improving the education of the village children they could make a long term contribution to the charity’s overall objective. Children in Zambia are often only educated to the age of 14; with schools often oversubscribed and in poor conditions.

Evergreen学校的每个班级约有150名学生,因此很难有效地进行教学并为学生提供足够的学习空间。该项目新增的4间教室将使得每个班级的学生人数减少到40名,并带来更加明亮和宽敞的学习环境。
Evergreen classrooms had around 150 students per class, making it very difficult to effectively teach the curriculum and provide enough space for the students to learn successfully. The addition of 4 classrooms will bring class sizes down to 40 pupils each and will provide a brighter, more spacious classroom to learn within.

MoA雇用了30多名当地工人(其中50%以上为女性),并在CAUKIN Studio的指导下完成了教室的建造。考虑到赞比亚的高失业率,该项目也为当地工人提供了学习技能的机会,从而对他们未来的就业有所帮助。
MoA employed over 30 local workers, managed by CAUKIN Studio for the duration of the build- over 50% of which were female. With unemployment rates in Zambia being so high, it was important that this project also became a vehicle to teach workers new skills increasing their opportunity for future employment.

设计汲取了当地风格,使用了距场地2小时车程范围内便能够获得的材料,并将其环绕在既有教室周围,从而在学校内部形成一个宽敞的庭院。每两间教室共享一个体量,两个体量被交错放置,形成层次分明的立面,使建筑的体块和观感变得更加有趣。
The design takes from the local vernacular, using materials all sourced within 2 hours of the site and wraps around the existing classrooms to create a large central courtyard within the school. Each block of two classrooms is offset to create a layered facade adding interest and breaking up the masses.

教室的屋顶支撑在高高的钢制桁架上,以增加从下方穿过的气流,并通过下方的镂空砖墙进行通风。可调节的百叶窗将光线引入宽敞的室内空间,并且可以在放学后完全闭锁。
The roof sits on steel trusses high above the classrooms to increase the airflow through the spaces below, venting through the hit and miss brickwork under the roof. The spacious volumes are flooded with light through the fully adjustable window shutters which can be locked down after school hours.

景观设计利用半高的矮墙来定义场地周围的活动,为学生提供了非正式的休息空间,可以用来吃午餐或者在放学后做作业。为了确保所有的材料均得到有效利用并尽可能地提高慈善预算,所有的景观元素均采用了边角料和废弃材料,从而将浪费降至最低。碎砖被浇筑到地面中,回收的木制模架则用于门的制作。
The landscaping utilises small, half-height walls which dictate movement around the site and create informal breakout spaces for students to eat their lunch or complete their homework after school. To ensure all materials were utilised effectively, maximising the charity’s budget, all landscaping elements were made from offcuts or excess materials, meaning that wastage across the whole project was kept to a minimum. Brick rubble was cast into the floors and the timber form work was used to make the doors.

建造总共使用了超过9000块当地砖材、4000块混凝土砌块以及2000吨沙子以及5万公斤水泥,其中混凝土完全由手工混合。
In total, over 9000 local bricks, 4000 concrete blocks, 2000 tonnes of sand and 50,000KG’s cement were used, with all of the concrete being mixed entirely by hand!
