Kindergarten and Nursery

Budapest, District 13, Váci road,
Hungary
Public, Other
2009

The task to incorporate a nursery and a kindergarten into one building seems natural at first glance. Nevertheless, the law considers one as a social and the other as an educational function. Under the Váci road 88. the nursery (on the ground floor) and the kindergarten (on the 1st floor) are located in one building. The service features of the building were placed on the basement level.

Standing in the common courtyard, to the East we can reach the nursery, and to the West the kindergarten. A free-formed staircase leads us from the foyer to the upper floor, where the dressing rooms are following the same colourful, curvy design. The building is a sculpture-like block with architecturaly highlighted form extractions such as the entrance court, the three-storey high inner court or the free spaces of the kindergarten terraces.

The kindergarten reached the final round at the Media’s Architectural Prize in 2011.
