Child Development Lab

Playground
The Child Development Lab is a children’s daycare in the bottom level of Stanley Hall. The project entailed a complete redesign of the facility with respect to the existing structural forms as well as redesigning the playground outside. The playground was the first part of the redesign. It had a severe flooding issue that washed away good soil and caused the breeding of mosquitoes. The playground couldn’t grow grass because of the flooding problem and the lack of sunlight from dense trees. The solution to this issue was to redirect the water flow and filter excess to reuse for outdoor activities.
