The Bridge School

Located in Xiashi village in Fujian province in Southeast China, the "Bridge School" links the two parts of the village, which are divided by a small creek.

It is a multifunctional structure built between two steel trusses that span the creek. It serves as a primary school, as well as a library, a grocery for the villagers and playground for the children. A pedestrian bridge is also hung below the structure allowing the villagers to cross the creek without entering the building.
