The Roaster: The Innovative Design That Makes BINUS SCHOOL Surabaya a Model of Sustainability!

Let’s take a moment to think about our school not just as a place where we come to learn, but as a space that shapes how we grow and discover who we are.

Our classrooms are big and open, designed to make us feel comfortable and inspired. But what if I told you that learning doesn’t only happen inside those four walls? Outside each classroom, there are quiet, sunny spots filled with fresh air—places where we can choose to pause, reflect, or work quietly. These spaces remind us that learning is not just about sitting still it’s about finding moments where our minds can breathe and imagine.

In these peaceful corners, with soft bean bags and gentle breezes, we have the freedom to be ourselves, to focus on what excites us, and to explore ideas in our own way. These learning pods near our classrooms keep us connected to our teachers while giving us space to grow independently. It’s a balance between support and freedom something very important for us as learners.

Now, think about the colours around us. They’re not just bright and cheerful they carry meaning. The green rooms are for special places where curiosity leads us labs, art studios, places for innovation. Pink is for our youngest explorers, the Early Years, beginning their journey. Blue is for Primary, where we build foundations and start asking big questions. Yellow is for Middle School, a time of challenge and discovery. And purple, for the future High Schoolers, symbolises the next step in our growth.

Our school spaces, with their colours and quiet corners, remind us that learning is everywhere it’s in the air we breathe, the light we feel, and the spaces we create for ourselves and each other.

So, as we walk these halls, sit in these rooms, or relax in these sunny spots, let’s remember: education here is about more than facts. It’s about growing as thinkers, dreamers, and kind humans ready to take on the world with curiosity and courage.
