The conceptual 'Forest School' has been designed by Nudes as a structure for Pune, India that would work to provide students with ample amenities and the ability to clean the air of the city.
The building features a lush, greenery-infused facade that would work to clean the air of the city, which was found to be four-times higher than the safe standard set out by the World Health Organization (WHO). A total of six floors would provide students with ample classroom space, while the plants on the exterior would also work to keep the structure cooler during hot days.
The conceptual 'Forest School' is finished with an infinity loop on the top for running and/or cycling to keep allow for outdoor training.
