PROJECT SUMMARY
iKid Academy’s new location in Centennial, CO was a design challenge from the start, converting an existing Walgreen’s box in to an environment conducive to childhood development. Working closely with the Client, we developed learning pods to reduce the number of children in any given area and promote interaction between similarly aged children. A ‘tree’ element was constructed at the center of each pod with customized led lighting above the ‘tree’s’ canopy to adapt the environment for seasonal occasions and curriculum specific event. Classrooms were located around the perimeter of the building, utilizing the existing windows to provide natural daylighting in to each room. A local artist provided hand-painted murals throughout the facility.
