The aim of our kinder GARDEN is to
provide different kinds of space through a large and unique playground to let
each child discovers himself and gain some autonomy in a spirit of freedom. The
space is thought to meet the different essential criteria for the development
of the child. It’s a safe place where kids can walk and run the way they want
and make their own mistakes. It’s not a question of nursing the pupils but more
a question of letting them learn by themselves through experiences. It’s also a
social space where they can learn from each other.
It was important for us to create a space where children from every age
can meet and play with each other. Bigger children can help the little ones and
help them become more responsible. Little children can take example from the
biggest ones and grow up. It’s a space connected to the city as well, because
children are the city’s actors of tomorrow. The space also allows pupils to
discover all of their senses. The topography is not the same in the entire building,
the boxes are different, the materials too. All of that to encourage children
to be curious and creative. The last point is to make a ludic place because,
even if the space is thought for children to grow up, we still managed to make
them dream in this environment. It’s a magic forest where they can draw on the
walls and on the floors. Where they can build huts on the branches and climb
the big central hills as explorers. It’s a space to let children be themselves.
In our design process we were really
attached to link closely elements of structure and architecture. For us the
relation between those two elements is essential to create a complete,
sustainable and well-designed building.
