An afterschool that relies on new methods and learning becomes a play and a joy for every child, in which the spoken language is that of Shakespeare, undoubtedly needed a bold, cheerful, colorful approach to the tastes of the little ones and in harmony with the chosen theme – “Shakespeare AfterSchool for Excellence”.
Learning for new times – Classrooms in a friendly approach
Classical tables have been replaced with whitewashed walls with special lime, which gives the effect of chalkboard writing in forms as attractive as possible for little ones. Thus, each room received a play theme, from the Shakespeare House, the Tetris Room, to the mountain excursion, decorative elements on the walls, cheerful stickers and suggestive forms of chalk. The chromaticity is unitary in children’s rooms, using vivid and cheerful colors, in keeping with their energy and dynamism – the sun, the yellow, the blue, the green and the red. The central room has the role of waiting room for parents and a room for the teaching staff. The color chosen for this space is more temperate, based on tones of marine green, petroleum gray, reddish brown and powdered pink, consistent with the condition of adults and their need for rest and relaxation.
Chromatic and design adapted to every age – Functional versatility according to internal needs
The entire interior design has been thought to be as versatile in terms of functionality, so that children’s rooms become, in turn, depending on the needs of the moment, teaching rooms, creative learning places, play, sleeping room or place dining. The furniture is made of light materials, with the possibility of overlapping storage and extra space (stackable chairs and cots, ergonomically shaped tables, easy to handle in the room).
The gardenbehind the house, the realm of the most beautiful memories of childhood
The afterschool also benefits from a generous courtyard with playgrounds for the little ones and relaxing with fresh air. Each existing plant element has been framed in the exterior arrangement, conferring a functional role. Thus, the covered terrace became a living space on pillows and brightly colored pillows, protected from the warmth of the sun and its hot rays, as well as the shady orchard, only good for hammocks or rest on the sofa made of pallets. For interactive games a space has been chosen under a generous vault of vines, paved with colorful pavements as varied as possible, only Twister. The most attractive place, however, is the hiding place under the crown of a bald tree, where two colorful and rocking rockers were positioned.
The good will, the lack of care and the simple joy, which characterizes the beautiful age of childhood, were the source of inspiration behind the whole arrangement. After the atmosphere at the inaugural party, with music, games, colored hand-painted walls, and a multitude of crystalline voices, we could say that we have gone well with the final assessment of our most sincere critics – the children.
