Description

Designed by Mario Cucinella and inaugurated in 2015 to replace the building damaged in the 2012 earthquake, the new Nido Iride has been defined by some as "the most beautiful kindergarten in the world".

It is a highly eco-sustainable, safe, comfortable and technological facility, built with the best materials.
The vertical wooden elements of the supporting structure recall the rows of trees of our countryside, thus having a continuous dialogue with the surrounding landscape.
Thanks to the sinuosity of the spaces and the warmth of the materials, the interior space recalls the womb.
