BOLLES+WILSON

The latest BOLLES+WILSON kindergarten is now, after a protracted incubation open for its 60 mini-customers... The `coat of many colours´ façade is wood, sustainable, a signal for the building's `passive house´ status. Colourful sun awnings animate the south façade where the six group rooms open to the playground or to the first floor balcony (where stairs connect down to playground). Sliding white sunscreens on the East and West façades also give night time security for open windows... The interior circulation gallery is animated by an optimistic green/yellow wall with giant foot/hand prints. A thematicising of scale is endemic to a building whose customers are only 90 centimeters tall.
