The initial idea for the design of the kindergarten, was to create a space for kids that will inspire their imagination and creativity. The aim was to create hidden corners that are waiting to be discovered by the kids and incorporate them into their game. The whole space was designed as part of a game itself. Strong colors were used to enhance this idea and flowing shapes were used to create separations and space utilities. The main entry from the street, is located on the narrow side of the linear plan and therefore the ground floor was divided into four sections, each serving a different utility. On the first section, as you enter the kindergarten, we designed a reception with a huge couch that dominates the space and an information desk with all the storage that it needs behind it. The couch was designed on two levels, so that both the parent and the kids can use it.
