In this kindergarten full of children's laughter, warm wood tones and low-saturated colors provide the base for the entire space, creating a soothing and relaxing atmosphere. The space is accentuated with vivid, bright colors. The branches will draw the eye upwards and increase the sense of height. The winding curves alleviate rigidity, adding a lively touch of playfulness. The semi-open layout links the reception area in the lobby, storybook area, multi-functional classroom, and rest area, ensuring smooth and intuitive transitions between rooms. The transparent glass divides the space without creating any visual breaks, maintaining the independence of the space and enabling constant monitoring of children.

On the exterior, the white color symbolizes purity and cleanliness, providing an escape from the neon lights of the city. Sleek lines, round pillars, and the lattice on the third floor along with curved surfaces add richness to the exterior layout. Green grass, solid wood chairs, and plants at the entrance bring life and vitality to the cold building. The blend of nature and design underlines the connection to nature, enhancing a sense of harmony and balance.

The reception counter continues the theme with gray and white marble, with the lower section featuring glossy titanium-coated metal, creating a refined and layered look. Clear-lined rectangular volumes along with smooth curved surfaces soften the look, creating a gentler and more welcoming space. Niche display cabinets in vibrant contrasting colors can evoke a sense of childlike wonder. Tree branches lead to different areas. Lights hanging at varying heights between branches can elevate the aesthetics of the interior. When looking up, they are like twinkling stars in the sky. The decors make the room feel like an uninhabited woodland as children embark on a journey to unearth the abundant sources of inspiration that surround us. The transparent glass partition, free of blind spots, ensures continuous monitoring of children. Besides, black, gray, and brown mirrors enhance a sense of depth to the long, narrow corridors.
