Text description provided by the architects. Cloud Kids Kindergarten is a established private preschool in the administrative center of Di An city, Binh Duong province. With a large area, Cloud Kids can provide a living, learning and playing space for more than 150 children. At the same time, surrounded by green campuses and office buildings, we aim to create a space that contributes to children’s mental and physical development, where teachers and children can feel surrounded by nature. To achieve this, Vschool has arranged and arranged classrooms, children’s living and playing spaces around a green, light-filled garden to create a courtyard that leads outside in a beautiful way. reasonable, as well as make the most of natural light in the design of Cloud Kids.

The striking architecture of this school is the ribbon that folds from floor to ceiling to create a sense of comfort for children as the slopes and curvilinear shapes enhance children’s learning skills. The lower curve is a free play space linked to the reception and the dining room. The ramp was added to connect to the second floor, which also serves as a plaything with the slider and the net tree through the second floor linking from the ground to the ceiling. What’s more, under the sloping plane designed to be a hide-and-seek space for children. For the upper curvilinear part, the hall is set up for children’s performances and parent meetings, where there is an architectural form of seating.

The learning space designed with two main functions: a classroom and a sports complex. The design of Cloud Kids school by architect Vschool intends to put all sitting functions in harmony with nature with natural light and views of trees through the window. To stimulate and enrich children’s sensibilities, the entire facility is planted with three-dimensional plants in a way that represents the four seasons and the change of vegetation. As nature changes with the seasons, children and their parents can enjoy the insects and birds that the vegetation attracts. Inspired by the surrounding environment, natural motifs such as insects, trees, etc. hidden inside and around the building as models and objects, so that children can enjoy the space by not Stop discovering new things.
