The design combines sophisticated design and high-quality materials with the children's needs for varied and diverse play and self-determined learning. The outdoor facilities do not compete with the architecture, but interpret it, and yet form an independent counterpart. In the built areas close to the house, they take up its expressive formal language and reflect it horizontally. Large, structured terraces are suitable for sitting and playing, but also for larger parties. The outer zones provide a link to the landscape; they are closer to nature, diverse and less clearly laid out. They offer hiding places and play areas for smaller and larger groups. In between, a narrow, meandering adventure path winds its way, connecting all the attractions. These peripheral zones are characterized by diverse vegetation. The entrance area is structured, the functional concerns, such as parking spaces, bicycle parking spaces, garbage sheds and deliveries, are oriented towards Dülferstrasse.
