Grand Children Palace
Learning Center for Royin Studio
Grand Children Palace is an early learning center which helps children to develop various skills through different programs. The project inspiration came from the Grand Palais due to the special arch structure. Different from traditional learning center which is full of classrooms, the center aims to provide varied events, classes and activities like sports to children. Lastly, Royin Studio planned minimum functional area and designed an open space on purpose in the middle of the center not only save budgets but also left children free space to play with imagination.

Production Technology
Main materials: eco emulsion paint, wood veneer, oak floor and ceramic tiles. This project has deatails which are special designed for children's safety and comfort. Small holes are created throughout the space to encourage children to explore and play.
Design Challenge
We removed part of the factories ceiling due to its poor conditions, which lead to two unexpected gaps between the brick wall and the arc rooftop that exposed the exterior facade. On top of that, the fire protection of the factory did not satisfy the requirements of a facility for educational purposes. As result, we managed to reconstruct the ceiling and fulfill the fire protection requirements, under very limited budget.
Project Duration
This project started in April 2018, and finished in August 2018 in Guangzhou, China.
Operation Flow
The design of this learning center allows the students to interact in the building with freedom and creativity. Unlike traditional learning centers, the activity spaces and the central open scape are interconnected, obstacles such as doors and walls are minimized, the connection between spaces generate a sense of transparency. This encourages inhabitants, whether students or teachers, to interact with the functions of spaces and each other more frequently.
Research
In Southern China, most of early learning centers only have separate classrooms for children to learn and play. But usually this kind of classroom is small and it would have a restriction on children and parents while playing and studying. And clients want this early learning centers to be a place for children to feel free without too much limitation. In the end, we design an open space to meet the wish of client without using the traditional space planing.
Inspiration
We took the Grand Palais as the reference for early learning center design, because the Grand Palais has a spacious open space, housing various artistic events of Paris. What if we could give the early learning center much more space for future events and playground? The idea would save budget for clients, better business plan for propaganda, better place for hosting events and more ideal way for teaching and playing. In the end, we keep a big comfortable space in the middle of the center.
