Local design studio Dominique Coulon & Associés design the Multi-childcare Crèche located in north-eastern France. It is defined by a palette of crimson, orange, and pink so that it stands out in contrast to the white exterior. The structure is surrounded by cherry trees, maples, and Japanese spiraea. The Multi-childcare Crèche functions as a nursery and pre-school that cares for 50 children.
The studio notes, "Thanks to our dynamic colour palette that makes use of natural light and proportions, we have created a user-friendly learning facility where children and staff alike can thrive." The space reaches up to a skylight that is designed with sky blue circle structures. Dominique Coulon & Associés added, "This hallway is the beating heart of the crèche. It is a playful space that connects to all the sections of the architectural programme, so we were able to forego corridor."
