Christ the King Kindergarten is kindergarten based on the Montessori Method, located in Hyogo, Japan, and designed by Atelier Cube.

A pixelated-like facade of windows and layered concrete panels serves as a backdrop to an outdoor playground for the young school children.

The first floor has three layers; the first inside layer created to be like a ‘house’ resulting in the nursery room, the second layer a ‘garden’ resulting in middle space, and the outer layer ‘society’ resulting in a playground for the kids; both indoor and outdoor.
