Tomonoki-Himawari Kindergarten | MAMM Design
Tomonoki-Himawari Kindergarten is located at the Arakawa Ward in Tokyo. It was designed by the Tokyo-based MAMM Design, with a total area of 933.41 square meters, to fit 175 people. Its construction came to completion in 2017.

It is encircled by classrooms and playgrounds which can view the lush greenery, stroked by natural light.
