With a data-driven architectural concept, this early childhood development and daycare center attempts to disrupt the norm of early education. The main space is designed to feel like a large exterior environment, while dwellings for the children, divided by age, are situated within an implied exterior environment. Each of the dwellings features a unique architectural design, with gracefully integrated lighting details that sinuously express the novel architectural forms through coves and slots.
