The nursery is located in the Ano Patisia area of the City of Athens. The architectural study foresees a two-story building with a basement and a roof. The ground floor covers the needs of infants, while the first floor accommodates the toddlers.Due to the rather unfavorable geometry of the plot on top of the specific building requirements of a nursery, the design of the building was made with the clear aim of creating open and bright spaces that will serve the functionality of the nursery at the same time. For this reason, the central element of the design is the atrium, which plays multiple roles: it creates a clear programmatic separation of the main areas of the building [administrative spaces and children's spaces], while allowing at t...
