Design response
The design process focused on creating a safe, interactive and engaging space to foster growth and curiosity. We also ensured longevity and a dialogue between the built environment and natural world with both robust and natural materials.
Child -centred concept
Committed to providing a nurturing and stimulating childcare environment:
- Three storeys are dedicated entirely to early learning experiences, with ground-floor parking.
- Interaction and sensory stimulation are prioritised.
- Natural materials and expansive glass enhance connectivity with the outdoors and create a light-filled space.

Arched vistas frame not just views but childhood wonder, infusing each play space with the elegance of discovery.
Innovative interiors
To elevate the spatial experience for children, we incorporated features such as:
- tactile strips for imaginative play
- interactive joinery items
- large arched windows to frame the water views
- 'peek-a-boo' moments and visual connections between the different levels.
