• First monograph of works by HIBINO SEKKEI, an award-winning design company • A thorough examination of Japanese early-childhood education philosophy Childhood is an important period of contact with new things. Carefully crafted design and high-quality items are essential for a child's development. Therefore, a high-quality physical environment for children should demonstrate a huge sensitivity to the physical and mental experience of children, from the organization of the building, to the use of materials. In this book, HIBINO SEKKEI illustrates its unique and innovative philosophy from three aspects - places for children, elements of places for children (kitchen, restroom, playground, material, color, etc.) and things for children, such as furniture, uniforms, and stationery. | The World Designed for Children by Hibino Sekkei, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
