Idea projektu

Our kindergarten project is located in Lomé, TOGO and occupies an area of 2000 m2, with children’s playgrounds.
For our architectural design of the kindergarten, the use of a baby sock as a source of inspiration, allowed us to explore innovative ideas and in an original way.
A baby sock is often associated with softness, protection and comfort. Using this symbol, we sought to create an educational environment that is welcoming, warm and safe for young children.
The objective of a nursery school is to provide young children with an educational environment that promotes their overall development: (Stimulate intellectual curiosity and interest in learning; introduce the basics of academic skills, such as reading, writing, drawing, etc.)
