Carefully designed and flexibly suited for children from 2 to 8, it offers a stimulating and inclusive learning environment to encourage boundless imagination.

The overall design takes a minimalist approach to remove unnecessary furniture and equipment – with just enough to invent their own games. Traditionally categorised into ‘active’ and ‘passive’ play, with the former includes slides and nets to climb and hide, the latter is housed in equally immersive environment for classes from cake-making to painting. Warm-white finish, natural lighting as well as tables and chairs in wooden finish tall contribute to a homey learning environment – and all with children’s proportions and safety taken into account.

Another key element designer has especially considered is how adults are also invited to comfortably accompany their kids – and just to relax and even learn with child-like curiosity. ‘Pure play’, after all, means something for everyone in this well-designed space to enjoy.
