Text description provided by the architects. This is a nursery at the site which used to be a fire department. It is on a part of Chitose New Town straddling the border between Toyonaka city and Suita city. In this area, communities had been built and developed around the housing estates, but now they tend to decline and disappear. The nursery is a place to develop children’s personality and also, it’s important to tell children the history of their neighborhood and old scenery. Therefore, we reinterpret the housing estates and plan a nursery as a hub of local communities.
