DESIGN DETAILS

Under the Tree

PRIMARY FUNCTION:
Educational Institute

INSPIRATION:
The primary inspiration of Hsin Yi Kids Learning Center is to create an atmosphere for kids to be close to nature since the majority of children, who come to learn in this space, live in Taipei city, the metropolitan area of Taiwan. Children can freely play and learn by seeing and touching all the surface of space.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The design is intended to emphasize the texture of natural material as well as its feeling to provide children, whose age in between 1 to 6 years old, a comfortable and relaxing environment to play. The main focus of this learning center is the main tree, made with wood and paper, with a market-play area underneath. The wood panels cover large concrete column and host CNC cut honeycomb section cardboard sheet for branches and leafs.

OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION:
All children are free to play any area of this learning center. They can role play, read books, do some puzzles and play slides. The most important aspect of this institute is to provide kids to be interested in their sense of touching and feeling, which usually they are trained in normal kindergarten education system in Taiwan.

PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION:
Design Period: 2014 December to 2015 May Construction Period: 2015 June to 2016 March

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY:

85 square meter interior space with 3.7 meter ceiling height

TAGS:
