Clover House is a minimal kindergarten located in Aichi, Japan, designed by MAD Architects. MAD architects have completed their first project in Japan, the Clover House kindergarten. The school’s setting boasts views of the paddy fields and mountains, characteristic of the Aichi Prefecture. The kindergarten was originally operated out of the old family home of siblings Kentaro and Tamaki Nara, which soon became too small and unfit for expanding their educational goals. The siblings desired to create a modern educational institution where children could feel as comfortable as they do in their own homes, allowing them to grow and learn in a nurturing setting.
