Creative education for future innovators

Arkki was founded in Finland in 1993 and is the world's leading school of architecture and creative education for children and youth from 4 to 19 years old. We have opened our doors to Singapore with the aim of building a systematic and progressive creative education ecosystem for children and youth, connecting them to their peers throughout ASEAN, Asia and with Finland through international camps, projects and exchange programmes.

In Finland, the Arkki curriculum has since integrated into the national extra-curricular creative program and is endorsed by the Finnish Ministry of Education & Culture. Arkki is also certified by the Finnish National Agency for Education to export the Finnish education know-hows to the rest of the world. For over 25 years, Arkki has organized thousands of courses and workshops for more than 20,000 children in more than 20 countries.

Arkki Innovators is a weekly design and architecture workshop for curious minds aged 10-13. Each session challenges students to explore real-world issues — from reimagining ancient cities to designing future-ready buildings, urban spaces, sustainable products, or even immersive game environments. Through sketching, prototyping and model-making, students learn to design with intention: understanding user needs, environmental impact, and the power of visual storytelling. This programme nurtures creative resilience, systems thinking and collaboration — helping young minds build the confidence and tools for more advanced design, innovation and changemaking in the future.

New classes for Young Explorers! Weekly Architecture & Design Programme

Arkki Explorers is a weekly hands-on architecture and design workshop for children aged 7–9. Each session invites kids to playfully investigate how the spaces, objects, and environments around us are imagined and made.

Here, they’ll build real 3D models while developing key skills in imagination, observation and problem-solving — building a foundation for more complex design exploration as they grow.
