homu's proposal for a kindergarten in Villasanta. The new school is designed to harmonize with its surroundings by minimizing the building's volumetric impact. The structure maintains a single-story height along the perimeter, ensuring a low and cohesive profile. Additional spaces are integrated into the first floor, seamlessly following the contours of the roof's shape. More!

homu has been invited by ABF Andrea Bocelli Fondation to submit a proposal for a new educational hub 0-11 in Macerata, a new construction for a kindergarten and the renovation of the adjacent primary school. Our project is composed by a central garden and the new kindergarten. The 0-6 school has a modular plan and a compact volume to reduce the costs and to ensure a high energy efficiency. The barrel vaulted roof defines the learning spaces as rooms able of respecting the child individuality while creating surprising and unexpected spaces! Check it out!

Find out our project for a landmark at Dubai Creek Harbour! We imagined a multifaceted structure which boundaries are blurred like a sunbow. It is not a building but a unique place where outdoor and indoor merge together. The landmark is conceived as a structure no longer exclusively dedicated to a single visit in a lifetime, but as capacitor of activities, a place of permanent activity. Check it out!
