Fuji Kindergarten

I was channel surfing just now and chanced upon a tv programme on CNA that focus on designs around the world.

And in this particular episode, it talked about a particular kindergarten in Japan with a very unique architecture.



The kindergarten is built on the concept where children can study, play in an environment that has no boundaries. On the roof, children can run around endlessly with no dead end. At the first floor where the classrooms are located, there is actually no walls, only some wooden board and furniture which serve as partitions. And 3 big trees are incorporated into the architecture of the building.




Here is a link where there is an article written about the kindergarten and there is also a video clip which gives a better view of the kindergarten.

A very detailed, in depth article here.

Very impressive right?

Studying there as a kid sure must be fun.
