The design of the look for the kindergarten is simple and yet, abstract. It uses a double layer skin cover made from aluminum composite shaped into a folding layer, which follows the shape of the roof. As the position of the building is toward the sun from the west, this is used to buffer the striking heat from the sun.

The structure of the building is built with high consideration towards the safety of the children. The principal’s office is specifically positioned in the first level near the playgrounds and pool to ease the principal for monitoring the children with their activities. The tile of the playground itself uses rubber tiles with 1.5 cm thickness and the swimming pool is fenced to prevent accidents with the children.
