A few years back, a small daycare institution for 30 children was demolished on the site making room for a new kindergarten with room for 6 times as many children – making it the biggest daycare institution in the neighborhood of Frederiksberg. Aiming for creating a safe everyday life for the children, the project consists of 11 small houses joint together with different orientation. From the outside, the day-care institution appears as a playful village for children, but from the inside, it is none the less coherent and efficient. The houses are small, compact and functional in everyday life, whilst still being exciting and challenging for children.
