This diploma thesis deals with the synthesis of a creative work place for children with activities outside of school hours. In the same place where this diploma is been carried out, in the center of Volos there was a similar space for various years with various activities and events.
The goal of the site is to host a "hangout of the child", in a dual sense. On the one hand, the participants in it have the opportunity to engage in activities such as painting, dance, music, theater and sports; on the other hand, the building aspires to become a socialization center for children and thus to act as a "hangout" for younger ages. The "Children's Steak" does not work with a "rigorous" learning program, it just offers the place where young people and young people can choose the activity they want. So the space covers the creative wishes of the participants in it. There is a large amount of educational material available for lending such as books, paintings and digital records.
The work focuses on two themes. The first is to create an indoor space that can cover a part of activities such as dancing, music, reading and an outside. The outdoor area hosts a playground and sports facilities. The main function of outdoor space is the hosting of exhibitions of those created in the "Children's Haunt", helping to function as a center of the city and the neighborhood.
The main objective of the work is to design a creative employment space, trying to have a wider reference to the city and the neighborhood with exhibitions and performances such as music concerts, presentations, puppet shows and sports activities. There are no such spaces in the city of Volos and this work aspires to draw one and draw attention to the need for free creation spaces.
