Igarashi Design Studio / Hisae Igarashi

A kindergarten characterized by a design in which the garden, pilotis, outdoor staircase, and terrace are connected as a single space, allowing for a sense of circulation. The three-square boxes that symbolize the building have no particular function but are intended to be spaces that induce spontaneous play among the children. The log house that was demolished from the existing kindergarten building was upcycled and used as playground equipment, benches, fences, and signs throughout the building.
