As a result of some definitive gestures the building housing a kindergarten in Csomád has turned into such a unique edifice with refined ornamentation on the facade as well as some surprising details of the formation of interior spaces. It appears very simple, with an exterior based on the harmony of five materials and three colours: yellowish reddish tracery, brick resembling sandstone, wood, cream-coloured plasterwork, dark grey steel and anthracite roof tiles. The ornamentation of the facade is a result of the rhythm of the openings as well as that of the alternation of materials and textures.
