About After School Ruang Hunian Bersama

After School adalah ruang interior bersama yang diciptakan bagi anak-anak untuk kegiatan sepulang sekolah. Denah terbuka tanpa sekat memperluas area yang tersedia untuk beraktivitas. Plafon yang menyerupai rumah pohon menghadirkan suasana sebuah tempat rahasia. Jendela kaca tirai berukuran besar membawa kehijauan dari luar ke dalam ruang, dan zona membaca ditempatkan tepat di depan jendela tersebut. Perbedaan ketinggian lantai menegaskan pembagian area sekaligus membentuk rak buku. Material transparan dan reflektif membantu menghindari sudut-sudut yang berbahaya. Ruang ini mendukung berbagai kelas seperti memasak, kerajinan keramik, membaca buku cerita bergambar, dan melukis.

Research: Because of the parents’ working time and competitive kids’ school work, one-third of the students should go to cram school after school until 9 pm in Taiwan. The phenomenon leads to some problems with society and children growing. As a result, we propose the concept of the sharing space to create a place for children activities after school. The place is also used as office space for the parents and it could add more the parent-child time.
Different from the studying space in cram school, the course on the site would be held in turns by mothers who have various interests. They would let children study together, experience some artwork and share the living. We designed the cooking space, reading space, picture book space, gaming space, and pottery classroom. This project makes children could really experience and learn the knowledge different from the textbooks and it invite the parents with the same social background to manage this place as mutual caring parent-child space in this modern city living.
Inspiration: Inspired by the social issue of After school time caring for kids ,client is a couple having 2 kids studying in elementary school.

Second, we refer to these courses to mix into space. The interesting and safe are the main concept in spatial design.
