AKM Kindergarten and Nursery / HIBINOSEKKEI + Youji no Shiro + Kids Design Labo
The nursery stands in Ashikita-gun, Kumamoto Prefecture, which has lush green mountains and beautiful coastlines. In response to the flooding of the existing nursery building due to a river overflow caused by heavy rains, we planned a "hilltop nursery to protect children from flooding" by placing soil on the ground and setting the floor level at 2 meters above the ground.
