Backed by 30 years of research and practice from Finland, Arkki’s unique camps centres on using architecture and its projects as the vehicle to help children and youth apply their academic knowledge (STEAM, humanities, social sciences), to develop their critical thinking skills and creativity. Arkki’s lessons are led with hands-on practical projects to enable constructive play and creation, combined with collaboration and discussion. They prioritise the use non-prefab materials and their coaches come from professional architecture and design backgrounds and are trained, certified by Arkki international. 

This March holidays, Arkki is offering two camps centred on sustainable living. In the Arkki Green Town Project, kids will learn basic architecture principles and get hands-on experience to bring your ideas to life through scaled drawings and models. The ideas, solutions and protypes will surround the theme of sustainability, nature, integration and future innovations. In their Arkki New Recycled City Workshop, important concepts about the environment, sustainable living and architecture are translated into fun projects to spark kids’ imagination. They will learn interesting design concepts, apply subject knowledge to bring ideas to life and see them realise in the models that they will be creating.
