Adaptive reuse and addition of a 1940’s brick power station to a preschool. The concept, which evolved from the narrative of creating an architecture of wonder and curiosity, was to create a rainbow that wraps and rests on the existing brick power station.

The 3rd floor rainbow addition bridges the existing building to the adjacent road creating a horizontal counter point to the vertical expression of the chimney and the building underside where the children can explore and play. The building becomes interactive with the children.
