03 / living laboratory

Nature that generates
real data.

ARCHIMEDES® can connect water management, growing, weather and digital learning in one coherent ecosystem.

01

Rainwater

A retention tank can collect water for further use.

Growing

The collected water supplies the living wall and raised beds.

03

Local data

A weather station makes it possible to monitor and analyse local conditions.

Learning on screen

Observations and data connect directly with digital content.

The final combination of natural and inquiry-based elements is designed around the selected version and the school’s needs.

04 / inside the classroom

One space.
Many ways to use it.

The interior is not static. A change of layout supports everyday lessons, group work, live broadcasting and public programmes.

07 / decision

When ARCHIMEDES®
is the right choice.

If you only need seasonal seating, a simple shelter may be enough. ARCHIMEDES® is designed for places that need to support regular learning and serve the wider community.

08 / versions

The best is not the most expensive.
It is the right fit for your needs.

01ARCHIMEDES®OPTIMAL
Operating profile

Maximum openness to nature

For schools seeking a strong outdoor character and the option to open the space fully during warmer months.

  • All-timber structure
  • Sliding elements retract into concealed pockets
  • Seasonal comfort; winter use with a lower level of thermal comfort
Main benefit

This is the most open version. Sliding doors and shutters retract into concealed pockets, turning the classroom into an airy pavilion in warm weather.

Who it suits

For schools and municipalities that prioritise a direct connection between teaching and nature and mainly use the classroom in the warmer part of the year.

Construction and finish

An all-timber structure with a choice of cladding shade. Winter heating is possible, with a lower thermal-comfort level than the more insulated versions.

The final design and equipment are always confirmed by the project for the specific site and intended use.

09 / for public authorities

A project you can
confidently present to the council.

Decision-makers do not need another sales brochure. They need to know who will use the space, what the municipality must prepare, what the risks are and how the investment will operate after handover.

01

Use

School, after-school groups, associations, seniors and public programmes.

02

Risks

Site, utilities, permissions, operation and responsibilities.

03

Budget

Structure, site preparation, equipment and optional elements itemised separately.

04

Evidence

A recommended completed project that can be visited in person.

10 / verifiable references

A network you can
see and visit.

Not anonymous logos. Real locations, authentic photographs, public sources and the option to visit the model classroom at Brno Exhibition Centre.

11 / project credibility

Patronage matters.
Results matter even more.

We distinguish institutional patronage of the project from awards received by municipalities where a classroom operates. Every claim is presented in its precise context.

Technology, training and handover

12 / turnkey delivery

One project.
One accountable partner.

The exact scope of responsibilities is agreed before work begins. Schools and municipalities do not have to assemble the project from unrelated suppliers without central coordination.

  1. 01Consultation on school and municipal needs
  2. 02Site and technical assessment
  3. 03Selection of the version and equipment
  4. 04Design study, budget and funding options
  5. 05Design documentation and permitting
  6. 06Production, construction and utility connections
  7. 07Technology, training and handover

13 / investment framework

Cost should not be a mystery.
But it is not a single number.

Following an initial assessment, we prepare a clear framework separating the structure, site preparation, equipment, optional elements and — for international projects — transport and local works. A reliable budget requires knowledge of the site and intended use.

14 / practical considerations

Questions before
you decide.

Can the classroom be used in winter?+

Yes. The level of winter comfort differs by version: OPTIMAL prioritises openness, OPTIMAL+ enhanced insulation and PREMIUM intensive year-round operation.

Does the project require planning permission?+

The permitting process depends on the site, building parameters and local regulations. An assessment of the specific project is therefore part of the preparation.

What must the municipality prepare?+

The scope is defined after reviewing the site, utilities, construction access, funding and procurement requirements.

What will we receive after the initial assessment?+

A recommended next step, suitable versions, points for technical verification and a clear brief for further discussion within the school or municipality.

Can ARCHIMEDES® be delivered outside Czechia?+

Yes, international projects are assessed individually. We define transport, assembly, the role of local contractors, permitting responsibilities and the required export or customs documentation before a binding proposal is prepared.

15 / contact

Meet the people
behind the project.

ARCHIMEDES® outdoor classrooms and the ARCHIMEDES® Live platform are created by one EduVision team. From the first site assessment to final handover, you speak directly with the people who design, prepare and deliver the project.

International projects

First we understand the place.
Then we design the right delivery model.

For projects outside Czechia, we assess the intended use, site, local regulations, transport, assembly and division of responsibilities. Your municipality receives a clear basis for feasibility and budget planning.
