Environment for Children
I took great inspiration from Christopher Day’s book, Environment for Children, on architecture and spaces for children and his work on designing Waldorf kindergartens.
My design ideas
- zero carbon
- community hub
- low-cost/gifted space
- permaculture gardening
- kindergarten space redesign
- proposed design consultation: consensus design day
