Located at Cemetery Mukku in Kochi, the Anganwadi responds to a chaotic street corner with a modest, quietly radical architectural gesture. The building avoids monumentality and monumentalization, offering a gentle presence that prioritizes early childhood care. The design reimagines public architecture for Anganwadi services, creating a nuanced urban insertion that elevates child-focused facilities. The project emphasizes contextual sensitivity, subtle formal expression, and a civic approach to educational architecture. The facility reframes expectations for public childcare infrastructure in India by combining restraint, thoughtful placement, and an emphasis on community-oriented service.
