| Converting an 8500 sq ft former Gymnasium into a three classroom pre-school for about 100 children, the idea developed of an s-shaped, canted wall which narrows and widens, made of studs and gypsum board. At the two bulges, where it is widest, the wall is three feet thick at floor level. Along the wall are openings for children to crawl through, sit in and peek out. Cantilevered planes jut out to provide spots for sitting or standing. Add colour and the wall becomes an abstract element for which the children constantly invent new uses. [The Little School is located in San Francisco, California, USA) |
