A primordial kindergarten, shaped by the spirit of the place and the emotions of the child. A space both protected and dreamlike, safe yet open to wonder. A small village: an abstract ensemble of pyramidal volumes joined by open courtyards. A vermilion school, warm and welcoming, rising among trees, nestled in green.

Kinder Rain emerges from the memory of the landscape, reinterpreting the archetype of the Casone Veneto; its form identifies three classrooms, standing out as volumetric exceptions within a continuous terracotta skin, evoking the age-old tradition of clay construction and pitched tile roofs.

The school thus aqppears as an imaginative village, rooted in place and capable of igniting the fantasy of its smallest inhabitants.
