Children learn through discovering and playing. In this Infact and Toddler Discovery Centre, it is intended to be a discovery space for toddlers to play and explore. Starting with a rectangular floor plan, we introduce two wonder “stones” in the space, creating a fluid negative space around which children can wander and explore.

The two stones are carved out to form different learning spaces and embedded with play equipment for children to learn, climb and play; they also define the central plaza as a communal space for the little ones to gather and large group activities. An elevated net is connected to the two stones, allowing children to go from one stone to the other at a higher level, giving children a multi-level experience. The play structures vary in height, encouraging children to move vertically and also horizontally. The floor is divided into sections through different colours, this is to indicate that each area has its own purpose, helping children to learn visually and spatially. The complex circulation system develops an exploration journey for children to learn through physical and mindful play. It is a place with no dead ends where children are encouraged to explore and discover the space freely through climbing, sliding and searching in and around the two stones.
