The landscape of urban residential area with a hill for background will be a coming surrounding. The client already has been managed a large educational institution for children in this region. Learn by experience, the client expect an active outdoor-learning space and a large assembly space.
The design naturally aims at the expectation. That is, the aim is to have multi-purpose assembly space and various outside space as a play ground. There is a stair that combines with a stand. The multipurpose hall with a form of atrium that is open to upper stories became a center.
The inside court is divided by transparent glass, so the inside and outside space is combined each other. It creates a form of natural assembly and children's parents could overlook the stage on the first floor from the stand on the first floor-staircase the passage, corridor, stairway of second floor, mid-second floor, mid-third floor when an event is open.
The difference of elevation rationalized the level planning which is linked to every half floor. It causes children's comfortable and interesting vertical circulation and connects the change of inside space. The courtyard on the left which is surrounded with quiet space functions as a playground, a learning place and a seeing garden. It leads to the garden on the right and small passage of the lower part of multipurpose hall and leads to the open playground with a swimming pool and ride continuously to circulate outside space.
The outdoor classroom and the handy swimming pool becomes other kind of outside space by surrounded by outer-walls of the building. The exposed concrete used as main material to save the cost the construction expenses, because I was convinced that it would rather intensify the theme with its, roughness as a background for the theme.
