A.P. Moller School Germany
The ceilings in the school support the simplicityof the school’s design.
The A.P. Møller School is a gift of the A.P. Møller and Chastine McKinney Møller Foundation of Danish shipping magnate Maersk McKinney Møller to the Danish- speaking minority of Schleswig-Holstein in northern Germany. Danish Queen Margrethe inaugurated the school on September 1, 2008. The school is the second Danish-language school across the Danish border in Germany.The A.P. Møller School is a Danish secondary school (7-10th grades) and a gymnasium constructed on former military land. There is room for 625 students in the 14,600–square-metre school. The three- storey building is built around two large, central spatial elements – one containing common areas with a canteen, reception hall and knowledge centre, the other with a large sports and multi-purpose hall with three arenas. The sloping roof connects these two spatial elements with yellow- brick masonry.
The building, with its slanting copper roof, is beautifully-situated in a lovely natural area with a view of Silen fjord and the copper towers of the Slesvig cathedral in the town of Schleswig.
The ceilings in the school support the simplicity of the school’s design. To add to the feeling of calm and simplicity, the architect firm C.F. Møller developed a lighting strip for the ceilings which contains both lighting and ventilation in the same band, contributing to the orderly feeling of the ceilings.
In many places, the ceilings are mounted as island solutions. The sound absorption qualities of these ceilings are excellent since the extremely stringent requirements for acoustics and sound absorption in school buildings must be met.
