Text description provided by architect.
The quiet and archetypal form of the saddle roof house offers a large spatial and functional diversity inside by merging into compex room situations, the changing room heights, gallery situations and light from all directions.
It is thus given spatial correlation to the concept of "Open Kindergarten". A terrace that is situated on the south facade, mediates between group rooms and garden.
The canopy of the terrace offers year-round weather and sun protection.
Group rooms, exercise room, corridor and foyer get an additional exposure over the skylight on the north side of the roof. Hung windows on the facades and skylights are used for night ventilation.
