Kindergarten Poljčane

Modular arhitekti / 2014
LOCATION: Dravinjska cesta 28, Poljčane

This village kindergarten with eight playrooms sits on a narrow, 200-metre long plot, adjacent to a nature protection area included in the Natura 2000 network. Each of the interconnected playrooms features views of the surroundings and its own exit. The glazed walls are sheltered by a roof, with a stream of water flowing through it. The outdoor playground is located on an earth mound which serves as a flood barrier. A special feature of this kindergarten is its wooden roof, made of CLT panels in the form of an inverted roof, which was a demanding construction task.
