Saint Gobain – Combination of Traditional and Modern Styles for Novi Sad Gymnasium
The main reason for this kind of demand was the location next to the Danube. These conditions required a good interpolation next to the office building.
The gymnasium contains a reception hall, the teachers’ room, a dining hall with a kitchen, sanitary installations and a technical room on the ground floor and specialized classrooms, sanitary installations, a balcony and auxiliary rooms on the upper floor. The main entrance is on the northern side and it is accessible by stairs and a platform. Three additional entrances are located on the eastern side and are accessible through the yard. Two of them are auxiliary entrances.
The building itself features a modern style and sophisticated lines. The structural system is designed and adapted to the functional and architectural solutions, making for the dimensions of 34x12 m. The roof is flat and integrated into the attic. The verticals of downspouts are hidden inside the 15-cm thick DEMIT façade.
When it comes to the interior design, in addition to traditional techniques, such as plaster works, modern techniques were implemented as well, such as specially designed epoxy floors in the hall and the classrooms. The main concept for the interior design was a combination of traditional and modern architectural features, as shown by the aesthetic contrast between the ground floor (entrance hall, assembly hall, kitchen and sanitary installations) and the upper floor (hall, classrooms and sanitary installations).
The main aesthetic characteristic of the premises are certainly the floors, which are specially designed for each classroom, depending on its purpose. The classroom for the Serbian language classes has a floor featuring poems of some of Serbia’s most famous poets, whereas the mathematics classroom features equations. The foreign languages classroom features famous sayings written on the floor, whereas the history and geography classroom is designed so as to represent a synergy of historical and world maps. The biology classroom’s floor is “covered” with grass.
The upper floor hall is designed as an inverted reality. The floor features a sky motif, whereas the ceiling is covered with black and white tiles. Specially designed door frames of various colors and mirrors on doors are supposed to amplify the effect of an inverted reality.
The entrance and the assembly hall, unlike the upper floor, feature a luxury design, mostly through rich plasterwork, a marble floor and baroque furniture. The facility itself features a modern style and sophisticated lines.
