The Mosaic Animal Tree enhances the interior entrance of the childcare facility, and it encompasses a low mosaic that picks up the pattern of waves on the building’s exterior and leads visitors inside the lobby where the pattern resolves into a large tree filled with playful animals. The animals, including ducks, turtles and guinea pigs are not traditionally found in trees but in classrooms where young children are likely to be familiar with them.
