  • Montevideo, Uruguay, Show on map
  • #EDU #CastInPlaceConcrete #Public #Forerunner #Latin America
  • The School is an extremely early South American example of the extensive use of exposed concrete. The layout permits the rooms to be used flexibly. Some of the structures recall factory buildings, in other words anticipating the anonymous formal language of the Smithsons. To improve access routes some of the buildings rest on supports.

  • Converted several times, in use.
