About Horizon Below 75cm Centro de Día para Primeira Infancia

Horizon Below 75cm é un centro de día público deseñado para o coidado da primeira infancia nun municipio rural do condado de Yilan. A primeira infancia abrangue tres etapas: recentemente nados, bebés e nenos pequenos, e cada etapa trae consigo un desenvolvemento sensorial diferente. A altura das aberturas da fachada está calibrada entre 45 e 75 centímetros, de xeito que o mundo exterior poida verse desde a propia altura dos ollos dun neno. O edificio abrangue unha superficie construída de 862,03 metros cadrados. A arquitectura moderna combínase con materiais locais axeitados ao clima da zona, o que simplifica a construción e mantén baixos os custos de mantemento.

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.
