Students of the PSU Graduate School of Design and Architecture took part in the Dream School Federal Program. The project allowed future specialists to gain experience of interaction with educational institutions subject to major renovation in Stavropol Krai.

One of the brightest examples was the work with the school-lyceum No. 6 in Essentuki. After the external finishing of the building was completed, a team of students developed a concept for the interior design of classrooms, corridors and recreational areas.

The final presentation was highly appreciated by the school management. This project was a contribution to the creation of a modern and inspiring educational environment where children will feel comfortable to learn, develop and dream.
