The project involves the construction of a school gym in Pesaro, for the Olivieri Comprehensive School , attached to the middle school, with a separate building connected by a covered walkway.

The design concept led to the creation of a floor plan and finishes similar to those of the recently built school.

The project was designed according to the principles of green building and the use of natural renewable energy sources, without neglecting all the technical construction measures aimed at energy saving and the conservation and maintenance of the building over time.

The roof of the school gym in Pesaro, made entirely of wood, has a white paint finish to limit the heat island effect, and photovoltaic panels for electricity production are located on the south side of the roof.

On the ground floor, there are two changing rooms and a first aid room; on the upper floor, there are two changing rooms, a technical room, and a multipurpose space. The sports area has a regulation basketball court with spectator stands. The stands have 108 seats.

Natural light is screened by sunshades to ensure that the court can also be used in summer without glare.
