架构师提供的文本描述。利维·施特劳斯学校坐落在一个城市增长区的中心地带，它位于法国北部里尔的古老住宅、妓女屋和港口区之间。主楼座落在城市大道上，正厅高度透明，在前面广场开放，这给在区内扮演重要角色的高中提供了一种学院特色。正门通过洛林大道和莱斯丁街交汇处的一个门廊。

阳光充足，风和日丽，游乐场主要是矿质的，种植得很好。在操场、餐厅和俱乐部的入口处开放。专门为学生提供设施，这些空间被认为像砖块中的空间，面向操场的树木。在位于南侧的有盖操场的顶部，科学教室提供了对附近城市环境的大视野。图书馆与这些专门教室相连，在一楼占据中心位置，可直接进入学校大厅。

Very sunny and sheltered from the winds, the playground’s mainly mineral and generously planted. Opened on the playground, the entrance of the dining hall and club. Dedicated to the pupils facilities, those spaces have been thought like spaces in the bricks oriented towards the trees of the playground. On top of the covered playground situated on the southern side, the scientific classrooms offer a large view on the nearby urban environment. Connecting to these specialized classrooms, the library’s occupying a central position on the first floor with direct access to the school hall.

不同大小的方形窗户的不对称排列为教室带来了光线，并为学生提供了城市的大视野。在场地的南部，室外体育设施和体育馆独立运作。和北欧许多地区一样，砖块是外墙的唯一材料。建筑师们想要圆角，所以高中看起来很柔软，没有尖锐的角度。砖块被渲染成三个层，对应于建筑物的三个移动的水平，创造了开放的空间，并确定了学生的入口处。

The asymmetrical alignment of the variously sized square windows bring light into the classsrooms and offer pupils large views of the city. On the southern part of the site, outdoor sporting facilities and a gymnasium operate independantly. As in many regions of northern Europe, brick is the only material used for the facades. The architects wanted rounded corners, so that the high school looks soft, there’s no sharp angle. The bricks are rendered in 3 stratums corresponding to the 3 shifted levels of the building which create open spaces and identify the entrance of the pupils.
