The Kongsvinger School covers 11,360 square meters and is home to classrooms, a sports hall, a culture hall, and a library. Located on the banks of the Glomma River, the cladding on the school building is a combination of wood, green Steni panels, and reflective façades. Printing can be superimposed on Steni façade panels. Some of the Steni panels feature quotations contributed by the students.
Large mirrored surfaces, both on the façade of the sports hall and under the ceilings around the entrances, produce a very exciting effect. The Steni panels under the ceiling look twice as big. The mirrored façade of the sports hall also means that the building reflects the surrounding forest.
