users have a view into the open kitchen space through an aluminium leaf-pattern inspired railing.

spaces are defined by design elements brought together to create an installation to the landscape while giving the users a view into the landscape of the site

to design a small capacity Kindergarten, for the children of the occupants of the existing Bugolobi flats in Kampala

designing the building to be an installa-tions rather than a mass; and still make it a landscape enhancement rather than an addition

using permeable elements to create a visual connection to the site

with a site that is just adjacent to a major access road, and with a small acreage, the proposal was to have drive-by park-ing; where a tutor stands by the main entrance to receive children
