Childcare Support Center in Koga

「感性を拓く」

敷地全体をひとつの地形のようにとらえ、保育園そのものが遊びと学びの装置となるように。
高さの違いが生み出す多様な使い方や視点の変化、内外のつながりや園庭の広がりを通じて、子どもたちが自由に発見し、遊びながら学べる空間をつくり出しています。

子どもたちは、それぞれ異なる感性、考え方を持っています。そんな多様な感覚を育む場として、さまざまなアイレベルの空間を設定し、内と外が連続する構成とすることで、年齢や興味に応じた居場所が自然と見つかるような環境を意識しました。

"A Place to Nurture Sensitivity"

We designed the entire site as a continuous landscape, where the nursery itself becomes a place for play and learning.
By creating differences in height, we introduced a variety of ways to use the space and experience it from different perspectives.
The seamless connection between indoors and outdoors, and the openness of the playground, encourage children to explore freely, learn through play, and make their own discoveries.

Each child has their own unique sensibilities and ways of thinking.
To nurture this diversity, we created spaces at different eye levels and ensured a fluid connection between inside and outside.
This allows children of different ages and interests to naturally find their own place within the environment.
