armadillo crèche
johannesburg, south africa / 2011
armadillo crèche is an early childhood development (ecd) center that accommodates 80 children and a teacher-training center. embracing the necessity of a fence, the design likens itself to an armadillo curling inwards. at the heart of the ecd center lie communal programs: a semi-outdoor dining space and a paved play area. more info and project credits: arch daily
