Frankfurt International School

Oberursel, Germany

In education

Spacious school courtyard framed by a modern cream, gray, and orange building, furnished with scattered red, white, and light blue Picnik table-and-bench sets on large pale paving tiles.

The new building complex of Frankfurt International School (FIS) in Oberursel needed some semi-public, robust quality furniture, but Extremis offered them much more: Hopper with backrests, Gargantua with Inumbra parasol and Picnik are true people magnets and tools for togetherness, but they also add a playful twist to the architecture and the aesthetics of the building.

Wide school plaza with wooden Hopper picnic tables in the foreground and round Gargantua tables under white Inumbra parasols near the building entrance, while students move across the open space.
Row of wooden Hopper picnic tables aligned across a large paved courtyard with young trees, set against the red and orange façade of the school building under a bright sky
Round Gargantua picnic tables with slatted wooden benches beneath large white Inumbra parasols in an open schoolyard beside colorful playground equipment; one person sits working at a table.
