Just like a giant Lego building, this kindergarten comes with bare brick forming patterns and openings which is playful to see, promoting natural ventilation and showing a unique aesthetic value. The utilities rooms and classrooms are organized around a comfortable core while each floor is designed in an alternating pattern. This pattern can stimulate the children’s inner creativity, encourage children to be more receptive to their surroundings, and enhance vertical interaction.

Together with the calming atmosphere of the classrooms, the core is full of movements. The spaces form an aperture from the garden on the ground floor, framing a visible continuous perspective from outside in and inside out. An open rooftop garden is connected to the interior spaces with awesome views of the Saigon River, waiting to be discovered with a rewarding experience.
