| DESIGN NAME: Taipei European School PRIMARY FUNCTION: School INSPIRATION: The design takes local climatic conditions into account and draws inspiration from traditional Taiwanese bookcases. A series of ‘shells’ is created on the elevation to ‘encase’ European culture. The ‘shell’ shading system of laminated bamboo reveals the cultural feature of Yangmingshan. It maximises natural light and provides shading to the functional spaces, greatly reducing a reliance on artificial lighting and air conditioning. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Located in the beautiful Yangmingshan and adjacent to the famous Taipei Hwa Kang Arts School, the redevelopment of Taipei European School’s secondary campus by Aedas sits on a site totalling 16,030 square metres. It is envisioned to create a contemporary, vibrant campus with rich Taiwanese cultural elements.

NAME: Taipei European School PROFILE: Taipei European School (TES) is an independent, co-educational day school, which was formed through the amalgamation of The Taipei British School (TBS), Ecole Française de Taipei (EFT) and Deutsche Schule Taipei (DST). It now operates as a single European entity through a non-profit making Foundation. The school has attracted worldwide attention with its unique model for integrating British, French and German sections in terms of curricula, administration, finance, buildings and facilities. A rapidly-expanding school, TES is now home to 1,700 students from 50 different nationalities. Following the success of this integration model for younger children, it was further enhanced when our High School was opened in 2002, catering for students from all three school sections. Since the development of the High School Section and introduction of the prestigious International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma, a graduating cohort of students gain places at many of the top universities around the world, principally in the UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, USA, Canada, Australia and Taiwan. |
