In the design for the new municipal kindergarten of Chiavenna, there is a clear desire to minimize the context and lessen the impact of the new building by taking advantage of the footprint of the old school. The new kindergarten is the result of a participatory process that actively involved the client and school referents, with a view to creating an innovative and stimulating school for the pedagogical development of the child. The intervention concerns “building replacement”, the demolition of the existing building used as a kindergarten, with construction of a new facility for 60 children, divided into three functional units. The configuration of the functional program of the new kindergarten proposes to make full use of the potential of the ground floor, which enjoys direct access to the garden. The distributional layout privileges the centrality of the common and distributive space, conceived as a place for relationships and meetings, where it will be possible to carry out diversified activities. The main entrance, characterized by a “filter” space of introduction to the warm environment, is followed by a reception area for discussion between parents and educators and a dressing room equipped with furniture for storing children’s clothing and personal items. The reception hall then leads to the multi-purpose hall, the centerpiece of the project, a vital and bright place suitable for both daily activities of movement and play and extraordinary events such as school plays. In addition to the classrooms reserved for teaching, the multi-purpose hall is also overlooked by two laboratories, flexible places set up to stimulate the free expression and development of the child’s creativity, in which tactile games, motor pathways, and sensory activities will be carried out.
