Day 51

New Brick Daycare Center / se\arch Architekten

➨ Function: Kindergarten
➨ Location: Stuttgart, Germany
➨ Area: 1550 m2

Hello guys,
hope you're doing great

Today's project was the first of its kind in this blog, It was the first time I analyze a daycare, I do believe in the importance of daycare existing in every neighborhood, they are the kind of building that should be available within 5 minutes walk distance. Along with the need for parents for daycare, It is also important for children at that age to engage with their peers. 

So how the design of daycare should be? Let's find out 

The daycare takes place in a dense residential neighborhood, In a small tour in google earth, we can see that the building's facades are characterized by gable roofs, dormer flushes, and small windows. looking at the daycare we can see that this character is represented in the facade too. In this way the daycare created a visual relationship with the neighborhood which will reflect on the kid's relationship with the daycare, It will be like their second home. 



The principles that were taken in the interior design reflect the kind of space the architects want to create for kids. The decision of keeping the walls uncovered will let the children develop their touching sense. besides the walls, an inner garden was designed to offer the kids an open space which is important for development.

Day 12

Ternion Villas / Studio Toggle Hello, snowman,  hope you're doing fine I'm really not getting ArchDaily's algorithm of choosing projects, like how often they change the featured projects and how they choose it. Well, today I made my own choice.  After analyzing the work market, I figured that most of the jobs are residential projects in Arab bay, therefor I started seeking projects in the field, and I ended up working on designing a villa's facade in Saudi Arabia. After this short story, I think you figured out today's project. It is a villa in Kuwait. I need to get familiar with their design codes, So BEAR with me.  Well, let's get into the project. The project site that is located near the bay's threshold, is made of three villas. the main design criteria are creating introverted climate-controlled spaces. The masses are divided according to the wind, sun, and view. The living spaces like the kitchen and the living room are located on the ground floor arou

Day 20

St. Andrews Girls Hostel / Zero Energy Design Lab Hello, ambitious who started the week doing sport.  hope you're feeling healthy! Today I started learning kickboxing, unsurprisingly I'm writing to you people using two fingers only :'). so I decided to hear my body and take the rest of the evening off.  But I had already started something.   let's see!  Today's project takes place in India's industrial and technological hub. Gurugram held in many universities and institutions which resulted in the need for dorms. This one hosts rooms for 130 female students. The main concept is to create a public space facade - a smaller scale of the Pompidou center - and connect it to different common shared function that is distributed along with the different levels.  The project is really interesting but has a lot of technical principles that I cannot conduct know. The facade is made out of brick that rotates according to the sun to create thermal and visual comfort space. 

Day 9

Friendship Hospital Satkhira / Kashef Chowdhury/URBANA hello people, First, let give ArchDaily a thanks note for their featured building today. After hopeless days finally, today's building is interested. It was my first time reading about a building in Bangladesh. Finding this beautiful hospital in a rural area has raised a small hope inside me.  Z. note : Today I tried an alternative method in reading the project, I tried to find the principles behind the structure, developing principles that are related to the context of the site and the function of the building could be really critical, but,  you know,  that is the fun part of the design process.  Z. note:  I used a more diagrammatic representation method today. Although I really enjoyed you guys my ghost army and although I started this blog for myself. The need for people's approval is pushing me to promote this blog by opening an Instagram page. Well, let's get into the project. The 8 bedrooms hospital site was donat
