The architectural design
All of the different spaces are connected. The density of their volumes, the relationship between full and empty areas outdoor and indoor, generate, in all their interconnections, a certain balance and harmony that make the environment meaningful.

The educational environment
Our environment welcomes and supports the children’s explorations, valuing the hundred languages with which they explore and approach reality. In order to do this, the environment needs to be rich, diversified and flexible.

Oblò, observing the space
A new environment is always a discovery, an area where relationships and encounters take place, an opportunity to see the world from different perspectives. Our first encounter with this environment triggered an intense reaction, as well as the desire to get to know it, live it and interpret it. A small publication with three holes on the cover recounts the first meeting between the children and the Early Childhood Centre’s architectural space.
Share the children’s experiences
“A round box that is open to the sky like a secret garden,
which attracts and draws the air inside it.”
Architect Alberto Campo Baeza

Pedagogical consulting
Being open to discuss and share principles and values are two key elements at the backbone of the Early Childhood Centre and they are at the basis of our pedagogical and organizational consulting.
Our Centre provides third parties with such consulting for the creation and/or management of children’s facilities or for teaching staff training internships.
Projects publications
Boys and girls’ voices, thoughts, graphics, photographs, and videos interweave with the teachers’ texts, creating a hybrid type of work that combines different knowledge and experiences.
