Meeting children as equals, on their own level, is not only a question of educational theory. Räume für Kinder shows how architecture and interior design can promote childhood development. Based on historical and current concepts of progressive education, the book sketches design principles for building daycare centers that can also be transferred to other spaces, such as pediatric clinics. Rooms can invite discovery; they can promote communication and social interaction, strengthen self-confidence, and be places of retreat or landscapes for play.
For years, the Berlin architectural firm baukind has been creatively balancing the strict legal requirements and architectural possibilities of architecture suitable for children--always with a view to children's needs. The book presents realized projects, such as the kindergarten Weltenbummler in Berlin, and aims to foster the equal involvement of children in the design of our environment.

baukind is passionate about building for social change that benefits children, seniors, parents, and single people. The office aims to create spaces that mix different living concepts, human interaction, and life-long learning both with and from others. For the past ten years, baukind has stewarded architectural services of all kinds with a focus on architecture for children. Architect Nathalie Dziobek-Bepler founded her architecture office, baukind, in 2011. She and her team focus on designing spaces suitable for children and have completed a wide range of projects over the past decade.
