The main idea is to integrate visual and content elements into the educational environment, telling about the past of the microdistrict, the city and the people who left their mark on the history of Novosibirsk. The inspiration was the Northern Airport - a symbol of technical progress, heroism, historical memory. Its significance is reflected in the architectural solutions: graphics with airplanes, the style of aviation navigation lines, information stands with historical facts and personalities.

The project seeks to show that school space can be not only functional, but also meaningful. These are not just corridors and recreation areas - this is part of the educational process, in which respect for culture, the city and ourselves is formed.

The project covers the renovation of a four-story school building, including the entrance area, stairwells and all corridors. The spaces were zoned by functions and age groups. The color palette ranges from bright and warm shades in the elementary school area to calm, restrained tones for senior classes, creating an atmosphere that matches the age psychology.

The entrance group has become the school's calling card. It houses waiting areas, stands with awards, a school history corner, and a safety zone. Laconic forms, navigation signs, and proven color solutions are used - all this makes the space modern, friendly and functional.

The corridors have ceased to be "transit" and have become a meaningful element of the school environment. Color stripes on the walls zone the space without distracting from the information elements. Educational stands are placed, telling about the history of the microdistrict, aviation, famous people of Novosibirsk, as well as motivational quotes.

Recreational areas are located along the route: soft sofas, terracotta poufs and shelves with decorative elements make staying at the school more comfortable and "homey".
