Vibrant color and fancy geometry — Chesapeake Kids Center (Photo)

The client’s wishes were simple and clear - to create a game center for young children of Chesapeake employees who would inspire them to learn and develop. Naturally, the customers wanted this to be the best safe place where parents and guardians could come at any time to spend time with their children and be part of their life while at work.

The architects of the Elliott + Associates Architects studio decided to develop a model center for the development of children in the country, spending more than a year on research that concerned the form of interiors acceptable for children and color. It turned out interesting, bright and tempting. Therefore, today Chesapeake has a fantastic center where children are preparing for the next stages of education, and parents and guardians are actively involved in everything that happens to children.

To the credit of Chesapeake, the architects took the opportunity to introduce children to art and architecture at an early age. For children, architecture is now seen as part of the learning experience. And this is a rare success worthy of imitation.

In the interiors of this center, children can touch the very nature of architectural forms and feel closer different colors, creating their games in such a rich and vibrant environment. For children, various physical exercises are installed, such as "Jump" and "Swing", which develop physical health, there is even climbing equipment. The pool with wooden balls under the stairs is designed for “ride”, “pick up” and “throw” actions.

In addition, in the development center, the stairs are closed with transparent barriers, as a rule, so that children can not freely go down and up, but there is a place where children of different ages can meet and communicate with each other. Even the stairs and steps have become a fun game space for them when they play in the mountains.
