archstudio, working on commission for poly culture group’s children education brand poly we-do, has completed a 1000m² teaching space. the location is an open, flexible environment oriented to maximize pupils’ development in music and the arts. included in the project are various classrooms for general or private lessons, a reception hall, theatre, rehearsal room, and other essential facilities. the entire design is like an ‘indoor village’ which is composed of forms in a variety of scales and textures. intimate, cozy, and filled with greenery, ‘poly we-do’ provides a rigid but relaxed environment for studying.
