A Village for Kids Hidden in the Woods - The project was commissioned by a Waldorf school in Nairobi, an institution deeply connected to nature and grounded in Anthroposophy. The buildings needed to be constructed quickly, cost-effectively (achieving a cost of 250$/m²), and with a temporary lifespan, as the plot lease is set to expire in 10 years.
