Challenging Learning Environment
The open education concept is reflected in the design of the building. LIAG created spaces for instructional education, creative studios and collaborative spaces. Core to this are the learning studios which each have their own theme. One learning studio combines theater and creative within the Building Studio and Home Corner. Another combines the Media Studio with the Building Corner and Discovery Studio. These workshops have an open connection to the learning plazas. Instruction rooms have been located here and are interconnected to the central area with large glass sliding doors. At the heart of the IKC, a ‘meeting kitchen’ will be situated where parents and children can cook and come together. The playroom, (located on the ground floor) can be converted into a theater with its own grandstand which can also be used as a reading place. The Daycare Center, which is also located centrally, will have its own wing with playroom and its own outdoor space.
