Concept
This is a unique environment for human education; we took into thought the support for the individuals’ needs, differences in physical fitness and disabilities, and the families’ concerns. As a place for long term support and daily life, we put an emphasis on colors and the effect it has among the mind, and bringing out the flavor of the materials. We put in ideas everywhere for the students to feel their achievements and happiness. We also built facilities to improve the students’ skills of managing information to keep up with the information society.
