Kindergarten for 3 groups

Building in the Alps has always been characterised by a search for the elementary, the simple and an intelligent treatment of its specific topography. The kindergarten was embedded in the slope — which is on the one hand a building, but on the other hand already an integral part of the surrounding landscape. The new building was created out of consideration for the village scale as well as for the perspective of the youngest children. On the inside a variety of spatial sequences promote the children’s own activity, orientation and communication, but also their social interaction and aesthetic awareness. In the sense of: the room is the third pedagogue.
