Viimsi is a town located only a few kilometers away from the countries capital - Tallinn. The peninsula is home to more then 2500 people. The area is particularly interesting because of its surroundings. The geological fault made up of natural stone divides the town into two parts and is at the edge of the designated plot. Proposed building emphasises the natural surroundings and tries to emulate the rising topography that is nearby. Four rectangular values all vary in sizes and house different art school wings. Transparent atrium connects the different volumes into a seamless school building. Courtyards emerge between the outer walls thus merging the building with the forest area in the east.
