From the perspective of education, early childhood education is to complete the educational purpose through children's familiarity in play and learning in actual exploration activities, and such behavior is for designers to create a good environment with abundant sunshine and health and pleasantness based on the growth of young children.
Here is the children's second home, where children can form their own small social relationships, reading everywhere, playing everywhere is the characteristic of this space, accompanied by freedom, releasing nature and vitality.

Design thinking
Xindi Baby Kindergarten serves infants and young children aged 0-6 years old, mainly in the nursery center and comprehensive early education, the building structure of the project is a square independent building, the project area is about 785 square meters, and the space meets the needs of the nursery space with reorganized sunshine and good seam conditions.
Combined with the needs of early education center users, with the physiological and psychological needs of young children as the starting point, in the use of materials, window and wall ratio, functionality and other aspects of the need to fully stimulate the autonomy and spontaneity of young children, between the functions should meet the early childhood education mode and children's behavior characteristics, to be rich and not messy, orderly and not rigid.
Abandoning the traditional children's space to enter the door is colorful, the project design is based on similar white and color, with a simple and simple design to show children the world's colorful. The staggered color block combination, the creative shape full of artistic sense, the combination and stacking of different patterns complete the unique and imaginative space construction, and the children's creative thinking is instantly stimulated.
The designer's careful thinking hidden in the corner, the extended ground art, the large and small circles and arcs, the intimate cartoon characters, and the soft cute bear hidden in the corner tower, all waving to the children, a soft, pure, natural space, children can explore around, full of freshness.
Free his mind so that he can think
The main activity area of the child takes "the first birth" as the theme, which means that the innocent pure white and light blue reflect each other, just like the new life that has just broken out of the shell, full of unknowns about everything around them, and need a broader stage to explore the new world.
In the design process, combined with montessori concepts and knowledge, in every detail of the design fully considers the characteristics of the activities of 0-6 years old infants and young children, from a scientific point of view design to let children grow freely. A small play world, looking up with blue sky and white clouds, the staircase leading to a wider space is attached to the wall, increasing the interaction of each layer of space, seemingly endless, returning the fun of active beating to the child, liberating the child's mind, so that he can think.
Free his hands and make him capable
As the first stop for children from family to collective life, the kindergarten is a very important stage of children's growth. In this regard, the "hands-on ability" cultivated by children in collective life is one of the important lessons in the growth of children, and even in the process of human life growth.
The children's creative world returns to the color of nature, the mild and rounded log color brings the child a warm feeling of home, and the uneasy and panicked mood calms down at once, allowing the children to explore, discover and create their own interesting space and vivid experience without restraint and spontaneously.
Free his mouth so that he can talk
Restaurants contain complex and unique humanistic implications such as social functions, emotional activities, and aesthetic experiences, both in the adult world and in the children's world.
Continuing the bright design style of the introduction, the designer opens a dialogue between nature and childlike fun here, and maximizes the outdoor scenery indoors, exploring the five-flavor life in the small world under the sun. Blue, yellow, green solid round piers, stable with a variety of sensory colorful experiences, social interaction at the dinner table, also began here.
Liberate his space and enable him to go to the great society to obtain richer learning
The passage design of the pro-kindergarten is very thorough, the road is connected, the free series is connected, and the transparent window design will be fully seen from the interesting space divided into spaces, and the size is set according to the child's spatial scale, and the details are full of care.
The floating circles on the wall are reflected in the light blue, like bubbles at sea level, free and flexible. Here, children liberate their own space, play and chase, joyfully explore, measure the "second home" with childish steps, and stumble towards the big society to obtain more knowledge.
brief summary
The designer strives to create a warm and simple, interesting and exploratory space, hoping to give children a bright first experience of life. I hope they can grow here, can be free, can be safe, can be worry-free...
