Inspired by a playful children’s toy, the Baisha kindergarten articulates a simple idea of a colourful ribbon twisting into multiple functional and spatial facets. Organized in a functional linear manner, the principal concept is to deploy this ribbon into a playful and functional form by rotating it into a 3-dimensional overlapping spiraling loop. Coiling clockwise and then counterclockwise into two distinct circular forms each containing an outdoor courtyard, the first circular form is dedicated to the administration and staff, and the second is dedicated to the classrooms with a large courtyard designed as an outdoor leisure playground featuring soft undulating landscape mounds and jungle gym. In-between the two-functional zones lie the reception hall that serves as the gathering space for children, parents and staff. It opens out towards the playground courtyard and green undulating landscape, protecting and nurturing the children’s social and physical developments.
