Provision for a new early learning centre in Hamilton. Architecto were appointed to design a purpose built facility providing for 70 children across 400m2 approx.

The design concept responded to the brief by providing a playful and vibrant aesthetic to the building.

Through the use of colour and simple forms, the design of the entry façade acknowledged the need to provide a welcoming approach and along with the introduction of carefully placed windows the younger users of the building are provided with an opportunity to engage with the building.
