The school before the project
Inspiration for the interior design
Water is wise and powerful!
Water covers about 71% of the surface of planet Earth.
97% of Earth’s water is salty water – oceans and seas.
1% is sweet water – available for drinking.
2% is frozen water in polar ice caps.
Project description
The interior design vision is related to water, as there’s no life without water. It is important for us to educate children how to think about the environment. That is why each floor shows a different water sources: Oceans, Seas and Rivers
First floor
Oceans
The foyers on the first floor reveal the incredible beauty and grandeur of the Ocean. It is home to many more animal species than the Earth. We have created beautiful places for rest and relaxation, and extracurricular activities. You can enjoy the ocean view and soothe your soul. You can also listen to gentle relaxing music with the natural sounds of the ocean waves. This is incredibly calming for students and teachers in the busy everyday life at school.
Second floor
Rivers
Rivers are the arteries of our Planet. They are vital for fresh drinking water and our existence. We have created educational friezes with rivers in Bulgaria and around the world, so that our students can get to know this incredible wealth, without which we cannot exist.
Third floor – project scheduled for 2021
Seas
Each one of us loves a fun-packed seaside holiday. Unfortunately, our seas are polluted by tourism and it is our responsibility to teach children how to care for and protect seas and marine life. We will create friezes with information about seas around the world. We intend to have a special corner where you could relax and enjoy a beautiful large photo wallpaper, showing the magic of the sea.
The classrooms
Each classroom has its own look with individual photo wallpapers and interesting thoughts, affirming messages and words. The stereotype and uniformity of the institutional look are replaced by colour and fantasy woven into images from the world of magic and the beauty of our nature.

Children and flowers
Our goal is to create special corners with flowers that literally clean the air and sections with herbs in the classrooms, to keep the air cleaner and increase oxygen levels. Air-purifying plants & fresh scents are very important for keeping children healthy & boosting their brainpower.
