Early Childhood Environment Design

The Design of Indoor and Outdoor Environments

“We value space because of its power to organise and its potential for sparking all kinds of social, affective and cognitive learning.” 

-Loris Malaguzzi.

The power of effective space and design can influence mood, culture and learning capabilities. We understand that there is potential in every space we work with, potential to help bring out the best in children and their teachers.

We have been involved in the design of preschools both here at home in New Zealand and overseas. Our educational background and hands on experience in establishing preschools allows us to work with you to create an environment that reflects your philosophy and programme.

Indoor Environment – Outdoor Environment

Indoor Environment

Early childhood environment design of an indoor espace needs to be thoughtfully designed, allowing you to incorporate your programme in an aesthetically pleasing way. Attention to detail of colour, space and resources, allowing independence, and ease of use; these are all crucial components to your indoor environment.

We will help to develop:

  • Appropriate use of space
  • Colour consulting to enhance children’s learning in an environment that is calming and secure
  • Developmentally appropriate environments
  • Environments that cater to your climate and culture

Outdoor Environment

Early childhood environment design of an outdoor space needs to be thoughtfully designed, allowing you to incorporate your programme in a beautifully, sensory rich space. Small and large areas of play need to reflect the natural wonders of the world, while remaining practical for year round use.

We will help to develop:

  • Appropriate use of space
  • Developmentally appropriate environments
  • Environments that cater to your climate and culture
