Concept

The new building will be erected in the same place as the pavilion and forms the southern boundary of the schoolyard. The group rooms face the outdoor play area, while functional and staff rooms face the schoolyard. A wide central play corridor connects the rooms and creates additional play areas. In addition, a separate staircase with an escape balcony provides access and safety.

Energy concept

The energy concept of the new building is based on a combination of modern technologies to ensure an efficient and sustainable energy supply. A comprehensive ventilation system with heat recovery ensures a healthy indoor climate with low energy consumption. This is complemented by an air/water heat pump with underfloor heating, which enables efficient heating. In addition, a photovoltaic system on the roof contributes to environmentally friendly electricity generation and thus supports the daycare center's energy requirements.

Further project information

  • Room program

    There are a total of 4 groups with the following group forms:

    • Group form II (0-3 years): 2 groups on the ground floor
    • Group form III (3-6 years): 2 groups on the upper floor

    In accordance with DVO KiBiz, 160m² for an Ü3 group and 185m² for an U3 group are recognized for refinancing the rent. This results in a maximum total usable area of 690 m² for the planned group types.
    The compact design makes it possible to implement a therapy room in addition to the room program specified by the LVR.
