School at Neubiberg, Germany. Colourful
louvres bring the school to life. The louvres
are perforated and lead to a light airy
interior.
Architect Gundel Krug from Munich says,
Since the louvres are from oor to ceiling,
this seems to make the entire building oat
on air, they give the school a welcoming
face and all the pupils and teachers are very
satised with the effects.
The louvres on the North faade are xed
but on the South, West and East faade they
are moveable, tracking the sun and divided
into 22 different groups. Each group reects
the requirements of the particular inside
space and has a different controls
approach. It is possible to override the
controls manually.

required to provide effective solar shading
as well as the solar heat gains.
