Two-story wooden building, capacity of 60 children, licensed nursery school

We minimized windows facing the neighboring property and instead created large openings from the nursery rooms to the garden through the corridor, allowing natural light to illuminate the interior from the garden. In addition, we designed an open hall facing the 2nd-floor balcony surrounding the garden, serving multiple purposes such as for school events and as a playroom.

The site is long and narrow, situated along a slope. Addressing the difference in elevation from the parking lot to the entrance, a ramp with a series of eaves at the top was installed.
