Tapping into the Lush
Rebuilt Catholic Daren Girls’ High School


The project aims to remodel the master plan to increase educational spaces that realize its school core value— learning through experiences — in its inherent ecological context.

In the new plan, all spaces are arranged in line with the hill backing the campus to take advantage of its indigenous natural beauty as part of the local eco-system. Everything from a newly built classroom building, a library, to a reconstructed two-story round building as chapel and dormitory enables a closer bond between students and the environment.
