    Description:

    Jupperi Multipurpose Building combines a school, daycare, and library under one roof, providing flexible spaces for both learning and community activities. Its three-wing layout forms sheltered courtyards, while abundant natural light and clear spatial organization ensure functionality, comfort, and a strong connection to nature. The site of the multipurpose building is located next to a residential area. Preserving the forest in the western part of the plot was a key starting point for the design.
