Macaroni Nursery

Tellus Nursery School by Tham & Videgard Arkiteker in Telefonplan, Stockholm

In this building is a flat for each group of children and a large communal space in the center.

Reminds me of an Italian baroque courtyard or place - curving exterior walls creating the outline of an oval-like form.

Some windows are covered with the yellow wooden baton design, while others are exposed.

The nursery is located between a forest and very industrial setting, so the architects tried to create a transition or medium to these two opposite environments - a big macaroni.  I really love this building because it's a modern take on some Italian baroque structures, and macaroni and cheese is one of my favorite foods.
