El Porvenir is a gorgeously designed and earth-smart public kindergarten in one of Bogota's poorest neighborhoods. Created by local architect Giancarlo Mazzanti, it's a modular building enclosed in a circular "tape" that allows adults to view children playing inside.

From Treehugger:

Inside of the circular tape, the spaces are colorful and infantile, and the modules create different yards, streets and subspaces that aim to enrich the kids experiences. Outside of it, the building projects to the city to open up to parents and adults.

The classrooms boast tons of daylight and are located considering solar radiation and the local topography, and open air areas are filled with green thematic yards in which the education for each level continues.
