„Johnnie, what is your kindergarten like?“ „Our kindergarten is super (playful, colourful, it stimulates thinking, perception, creativity, intuition).“ „ And what is its house like?“ „Our kindergarten is both giant and small, mum.” (It unwinds from children’s scale – from the entries of various sizes – for small, taller and tall children, through classrooms with large windows with deep sills creating the spaces of various proportions and sizes, up to the roof playground interconnected with its surrounding.) „We play with the sun.“ (Ample light brings mood, atmosphere, facilitates perception of colours – it passes through some items more or less, or not at all. Windows of various shapes with transparent and semi-transparent panes transmit light varying in its intensity, direction and colour into the interior.)
“And is full of colours” – the colours brighten or soften, distinguish or connect; by colours the house differs among various areas for children, each classroom is distinguishable to its wealth of colour, both in its interior and from outside. In the jacket of roof playground the colours of particular classrooms combine together to form a “rainbow”.
