Al flotar sobre el agua,
la escuela hace frente
a las crecidas. Su
estructura está formada
por una malla de vigas
de madera que se
apoyan sobre una base
de bidones vacíos de
plástico reciclado.
Because it floats on
water, the school can
withstand the high tides
of the area. Its structure
is formed by a mesh of
wooden beams that rest
on a floating base of
empty drums made of
recycled plastic.
