Daycare Centre in Cents © Bohumil Kostohryz

Description

The daycare centre in Cents presents an urban image towards the major road, where it is located. At the same time, it turns away from the traffic, opening generously to the rear onto a courtyard connected to a lush green space at the back. All the living rooms are arranged on the ground floor around this courtyard, facing each other and allowing for easy movement and immersion in the verdant surroundings. The site has two majestic trees facing the street, an unusual tree in the centre of the grounds, and a beautiful tree at the back of the property. The building's distinctive geometry results from these four remarkable trees, which it surrounds, touches, or domesticates.
