Colourful Edutainment Centre inspired by their mascot, Wavey the peacock
Within the Galaxy Integrated Resort in Macau, the Galaxy Kidz is an edutainment centre designed for children, featuring a range of unique facilities and engaging activities. Accompanied by their parents, children can explore nature and science through play, embodying Galaxy Kidz’s commitment to delivering both entertainment and educational experiences to life.
A Whimsical Space Design Inspired by Wavey the Peacock
The mascot, “Wavey the Peacock,” welcomes all young guests staying at the hotel, bringing to life the spirit of Galaxy Kidz. This lively little peacock inspired the entire edutainment centre’s design.
The design team from Groundwork Architects, led by Manfred Yuen, boldly brings “Wavey the Peacock” inspiration to life through the space’s design using vibrant colours, dynamic lines, and captivating lighting to create an imaginative wonderland for young guests.
The presence of “dopamine colors” in the surrounding environment creates an immersive experience for children, amplifying their sensory engagement. These vibrant and cheerful hues stimulate their senses, evoking a feeling of playfulness akin to being in a paradise where their creativity flourishes, often accompanied by delightful exclamations of “Wow!”
The dynamic interplay of vibrant, high-saturation colors harmoniously blends together, forming a playful symphony of visual delight. Complementing this colorful tapestry, the incorporation of abundant peacock patterns and elements infuses the space with a sense of confidence and vibrancy. These thoughtful design features serve as a bridge, seamlessly transporting viewers from the realm of reality to a whimsical fairy tale. With meticulously crafted rounded lines and intricate details, a captivating story begins to unfold, inviting all to embark on a journey of imagination and enchantment.
