That is wonderfull 😍
I like the several floors of hands-on indoor play and learning that's fun for the whole family. I can see my son play for several hours in this playground exploring, playing and having fun. The slide tops all the fun any kid or kid at heart could have. I also enjoy the idea of enclosed space so no need for parents to keep losing their children. Hands down to this design!
Technically appealing design of the kindergarten, in despite of the geometric grid exciting and diversified areas were created.
