About Horizon Below 75cm Centre de Dia per a Infants

Horizon Below 75cm és un centre de dia públic dissenyat per a l'atenció d'infants en un municipi rural del comtat de Yilan. La primera infància comprèn tres etapes: nadó, infant i criatura petita, i cada etapa comporta un desenvolupament sensorial diferent. L'alçada de les obertures de la façana es calibra entre 45 i 75 centímetres, de manera que el món exterior pugui ser vist des de l'altura dels ulls del propi infant. L'edifici ocupa una superfície de 862,03 metres quadrats. L'arquitectura moderna es combina amb materials locals adequats al clima de la zona, la qual cosa simplifica la construcció i manté baix el manteniment.

Unique Properties: Early childhood development encompasses three distinct stages; Newborn, Infant, and Toddler, wherein children experience varying levels of sensory development. To cater to the physical scale of children within each stage, the height of façade openings has been precisely calibrated to range from 45 to 75 cm, enabling the outer world to be visible from their own perspective.
Dimensions & Packaging: The floor area of this project is 862.03 m2
Tags: public daycare, infant care, rural design, modernism
Production Technology: This project uses modern architecture design, but utilized local materials in order to cope with local climate, making this project easier to construct with low maintanence.
Inspiration: Reshaping the Rural Daycare
In contrast to urban areas, rural regions often face a shortage of public daycare institutions, daycare is handled personally. It is essential to address the necessity for establishing adequate facilities in rural areas with utmost priority. This project stands as the first newly constructed public daycare facility in Yilan with a primary focus on infant care, and a mission to provide health and childbirth education for expecting parents and nurturing environments.
Project Duration: This project located at the intersection of section 3 Yicheng Road and Luan Road, Dongshan Township, Yilan County. This project started construction in April 2022 and finished in June 2023.
