The Seven Species is a unique Educational Center promoting imagination and creativity. It spans a cluster of six kindergartens for children aged 3-6, a play commons and an empowerment center. Each has an independent identity, and together they form an educational space offering a friendly, informal environment. The design theme was inspired by the history of the area, originally an agricultural community, hence the agricultural motifs at the core of the concept. The distinctive character of each kindergarten was dictated by the species identified with it, which served as a design code.
A new kindergartens complex was recently launched on the site of the former Farmer's Market in Tel Aviv. The space includes 6 kindergartens and 3 daycares- each have their own individual identity but are joined as one collective space. The communal lobby functions as an imaginative gathering area between the classes. The design concept was inspired by the history of the site and the city of Tel Aviv. The kindergartens were designed by themes of vegetables, fruits and market life. The educational environment is designed in a way that promotes play and develops a child’s desire to explore and experience.
