CHILD CARE CENTRE
New development of a child care centre for different ages in Parramatta, north-west of the Sydney central business district, residential suburb at the intersection of rich history and rapid development, plenty of natural beauty thanks to its riverside location.
The centre consists of full floor basement car parking, separated outdoor playing areas and distinct tiers, each set back from the one below, containing large spaces and classrooms, visually communicating with the environment and eliminating the concept of the classroom as a closed space. The material selection responds to the character of the local area and traditional Australian style: bronze tone face bricks, timber, concrete render up-turns and coloured feature aluminum boxes with glazing create this outstanding and timeless look within the neighborhood.
Cross ventilation, adequate sunlight and vegetation are all considerations that incorporated into the architectural design guarantee the proper thermal comfort of the users.
