PERSPECTIVE -- WEST AND EAST SHADING FACILITIES The floor level is 1.5 meters away from the space on the first floor, forming a small corridor. The shading facilities are used by zinc materials.
PERSPECTIVE -- 1F CORRIDOR The entire roof uses a wooden structure and is supported by steel columns. The north side of the first floor adds an exhibition function, and the display wall is randomly arranged between the pillars. In order to ensure light and ventilation, only part of the steel columns are equipped with display walls.
PERSPECTIVE -- 1F EXHIBITION AREA There is a certain distance between the adult office area and the children's activity area, but the distance is not too far, so parents will not be disturbed by their children while working, but they can go to the children's activity area to check their children's situation at any time. A spacious roof space connects these two and can be used as an exhibition and event venue at the same time.
PERSPECTIVE -- 1F EAST CHILDREN SPACE The children's activity space can organize children to carry out a wealth of activities, such as painting, reading and some less intense sports.
