Playfulness is a concept often attributed to children and hardly connected with adult life. In architecture, projects dedicated to childhood propose a combination of objects, colors and solutions to encourage imagination and break the rigidity of spaces. In contrast, most conventional projects are limited to regularity and stamp the sobriety of adult life.
However, some projects show us that this division between the space of children and adults is an old idea. In addition, reversing this logic brings several possibilities to architecture, mixing attractive solutions for children and proposing adult spaces that leave sobriety and incite imagination, acceptance and irreverence.
