Here are some images i have found over the last few weeks, that have really inspired my ideas around the design.
This is a proposal for a railway terminal by architect Santiago Calatrava (2004-2007), still in progress. I think the ambience it creates is beautiful; the lightness and the loftiness.
This is a commission proposed by Shigeru Ban for a new arts centre in Metz, France. similarly, it is the lightness and the weightlessness of the space i think that draws me to this design.i think integrating something like this into a form of shading in the school is important; creating a space for the kids that is protective, but still allows an abundance of natural light in.

This is a performing arts bowl by Hoberman (first name eludes me!) in Salt Lake City, USA.I believe an adaptability in design is an essential criteria, especially in a school, as a space will be used for a multitude of activities.
