Play is important in a child's development, growth and education. Children must be given a space where--in place of formal education--wonder and the love of play can be fostered and encouraged, allowing them to transition into becoming young individuals. By constructing a building with them in mind, children are offered opportunities to discover, play, and wonder. / Master of Architecture / This thesis challenges the typical symmetrical, standard, or traditional school system in an attempt to teach children concepts of light, shadow and color, geometry and to provide them with a sense of their natural environment, or surroundings all while inviting them to learn in a playful matter.
