Fuji Kindergarten // Tokyo // Japan // Tezuka Architects

Architects Takaharu and Yui Tezuka joined forces with Kashiwa Sato, one of Tokyo’s most respected creative directors, to build and brand, a novel kind of kindergarten in Tachikawa, a suburban area of Tokyo.

With Japan’s climate allowing screens to be open eight months of the year, spaces merge with each other and with the gardens, satisfying a key aspect of the Montessori methodology.

‘A kindergarten in the shape of a oval with a perimeter of 183m, made for 500 children. It is conceived as a single village. The interior is an integrated space softly partitioned with furniture. Projecting through the roof deck are three preserved Zelkova trees 25m in height.’

Total Floor Area: 1304.01m2
