An engineered, light gauge steel (LGS) framing solution expedited the construction of this distinctive QLD childcare centre, delivering significant time and cost savings.

Sunkids Childcare Centres have a holistic approach to early childhood education, where parents are honoured as the ‘first teachers’, early childhood professionals are the ‘second teachers’, and the physical environment is the ‘third teacher’, providing a safe space where children are allowed to learn, play, grow and explore.

With this core philosophy in mind, Architect Hooman Jaffar from Realspace Creative had a clear objective when designing this benchmark facility. He set out to create a space with a sense of gathering and community where families and staff can come together in a shared environment to support and encourage early childhood development.
