This project explored the boundaries of original design by creating a sustainable, eco-friendly kindergarten complex that was inspired by nature and the elements of the natural world. We used biomimicry and biophilia principles to incorporate plants, stones, and water features. Interactive elements encouraged children to explore and learn while providing an immersive nature-inspired experience. We employed energy efficient techniques such as natural lighting, passive cooling, and renewable energy sources. We created custom elements through 3D scanning and Zbrush manipulation to create intricate details and shapes that would have been difficult to achieve through traditional modelling methods, creating a truly immersive and nature-inspired space that was stimulating and engaging for the children.
