'spaces that work at both child and adult scale'
The John Perry Nursery in Dagenham by DSDHA takes inspiration from protected garden environments such as the Barbara Hepworth studio and garden in St Ives, Cornwall. Conceived as a 'studio for children', the building forms the fourth wall of an existing courtyard and has both outdoor and indoor teaching areas. Polycarbonate walls contribute to the studio feel.
