Charoenpong Kindergarten is a long established and well known private Thai school, offering Nursery and Kindergarten levels. The project brief was to
expand the school by transforming what was once the playground and yard into a new building. This new facility includes seven classrooms, bathrooms,
a recreational area, faculty room, lunch area, and a redesigned playground.
The design concept aims to maintain the essence of children’s play and interaction. The ground level features an open-plan space where children can play
and engage with their surroundings. On the second floor, a central courtyard with a high ceiling connects to the play yard below, creating a sense of
openness. This floor houses five classrooms and activity spaces along the corridor. The third floor is designed as a large recreational area for all children to
enjoy, with a faculty room on the opposite side.
The building’s structure draws inspiration from toy like forms, with overlapping geometric shapes that define different zones through the use of color.
Strategic voids are incorporated throughout the building to create a sense of flow and connectivity between spaces, enhancing both movement and
interaction.
