Gigi’s Playhouse Inc.

 

Gigi’s Playhouse is a national organization, for the first northeast Ohio location, The Krueger Group renovated a storefront in downtown Lakewood to be equal parts functional and empowering.

Working in collaboration with industry partners and vendors, we transformed a 3,180 square feet space that incorporated the multiple functions that each playhouse is designed to integrate – learning, achievement and inspiration.  Everywhere you look around this flagship location, you are greeted with bright colors and open space, features that were carefully developed and standardized for easy replication and could be recognized in every new playhouse.

Features of the new space include:

  • Platform stage with custom mural backdrop of the Cleveland skyline.
  • Kitchen area.
  • Learning and resource library.
  • Open gym/play area.
  • Service area.
  • Two learning labs.
  • Multipurpose/teen room.
  • Site coordinator office that sits behind a tempered 5’6” x 8’6” one-way mirror pane of glass that looks out to the open play area.
