In China was built a modern preschool, which used 483 glazing panels in ten different colors. The whole in contrast with the white building creates an amazing impression. Preschool with colorful panels delights both children and parents!
Preschool was built in Tianshui by SAKO Architecs
The project according to some looks a bit like a big birthday cake
Colored panels are placed in doors, windows, handrails and shimmer in different colors as soon as the sun's rays start streaming into the building at dawn
All windows, doors and glass panels have one edge - either top or bottom, in the shape of an arc
Glass panels come in 10 different colors
Arched windows of different sizes and positions make the architectural design look amazing
Another feature of this preschool with colored panels is a multifunctional atrium equipped with underfloor heating and air conditioning
The railings of the corridors and stairs surrounding the entire atrium are also decorated with colored glass
While the glass ceiling above this three-story atrium lets in natural light, the windows around it can be opened and closed for ventilation or to retain heat during the cold months
When sunlight enters classrooms through colored glass, it creates different lights and shadows, stimulating children's creativity and imagination
Architects installed a secure balcony on the roof so children can enjoy a beautiful view of Tianshui city
In the dark, lights emitted from inside create a unique view
How do you like a building designed this way?
