Sustainability as a central design feature

Designed by Jonas Architectes Associés, the Lycée Edward Steichen in Clervaux is an exemplary contribution to modern educational architecture. Built on a former industrial site and located near to the railway line, the building impresses with its carefully coordinated integration into the surrounding landscape. Sustainability was an integral part of the architectural concept. Among other things, a highly insulated building envelope, natural ventilation systems and photovoltaic systems on the roof surfaces contribute to the energy efficiency of the building. Particular attention was paid to the entry of natural light, which is clearly evident in the design of the sports hall roof that is fitted with six generously sized toplights.
