Dybkær School – The School on the Hill – is the beating heart of Gødvad, a suburb to Silkeborg in Denmark. The school is strategically located next to the area’s sports halls, church and local shops, making Dybkær School the new town square and creating a vibrant and cohesive neighbourhood.
In addition to accommodating 800 primary, middle, and secondary school pupils, after-school care and club facilities, the school also serves as a local cultural and activity centre that buzzes with life – both during and outside of school hours.
A building full of activities requires a controlled and pleasant indoor climate. The architects have chosen to clad the sloping ceilings and some walls with approx. 1,300 m² of Gustafs perforated acoustic panels. The warm colour tone of the panels’ pine veneer works well with the CLT pillars, creating a harmonious look and bringing nature into the school.
Dybkær School was awarded School Building of the Year 2024 in Denmark, by a professional jury and public votes.
