GUIYANG NO.14 
MIDDLE SCHOOL

The Guiyang No.14 Middle School Renovation Project in Guiyang is guided by three fundamental principles—Learning, Movement, and Nature. The design reimagines the relationship between the campus environment and student development through a series of architectural and landscape interventions, including an entrance garden, shared social platforms, seasonal landscapes, and vertical greening systems. Together, these strategies transform the school from a purely functional educational facility into a nurturing environment that supports wellbeing, social interaction, and long-term memory formation, allowing nature to become an integral part of everyday learning.

“A school is not only a place for education; it is also a vessel for memory. Long after students leave, we hope they remember not only the classroom itself, but also the changing seasons outside their windows, the energy of the sports fields, and the spaces where friendships were formed. ”
