Concept

Osaka Gakuin Tamagawa Gakuen Kindergarten planned to reconstruct a part of the kindergarten building and turned the playroom into a multi-purpose hall that can be used for everything from full-scale gymnastics to ceremonies where children and their parents can gather. The east and west sides of the hall are curtain walls, allowing the green of the park on the west side and the school garden on the east side to be seen as one.
