The world’s first circular kindergarten. Lendager Group has mapped out the building mass from GL. Gladsaxe school, and are now circulating it back into the new kindergarten built on site. The Jury says This solution redefines building methodology and is an inspiration for the future. It is a beautiful marriage of architecture and a visionary municipality. It shows what a governmental entity can achieve if they’re willing to champion the right solutions. It pushes the barriers for what is possible in a municipal and urban context and gives an entire area a new image.
