For this reason, the roof area of the new single-storey building is designed as a playground. In keeping with the Montessori pedagogic method, the building is the most important toy.

For reasons of space, the extension was built on the former court yard of the old existing kindergarten.

So the children will find on the roof of the new building an attractive multi-colored outdoor play-area, a spatial landscape to play under fixed sun canopies. Thus, the building itself is the most favorite toy.

The entire space program is housed in the well-structured building on one level. With their large glass surfaces, the margins open at ground level to the outside area. The development of floor plans lay on the idea of a spatial unit to provide a clear zonation for the little children.

The spacious entrance area is designed as a \”marketplace\” and a key element. Internal connections can be made between the different groups, so that a variety of uses leaves no desire and a feeling of spaciousness is mediated.
