Kita Löwenstark: Colorful future for Rothenfels kindergarten!
The Rothenfels kindergarten is now called Kita Löwenstark and promotes mindfulness and creativity in children.

Kita Löwenstark: Colorful future for Rothenfels kindergarten!
A lot has happened in Rothenfels: The former St. Josef kindergarten has a new name and a new concept. From now on he goes by the illustrious name “Kita Löwenstark”. The director, Andrea Salomon, explains that the facility deals intensively with the topic of “mindfulness”. Here children learn to respect their own feelings and those of those around them. A great goal that is supported by a strong sense of teamwork among the children, as Salomon emphasizes.
The renaming not only changed the name of the kindergarten, but also the entire philosophical orientation. The St. Josef Association no longer exists, so the daycare center is now municipal. This has the advantage that the kindergarten community can exploit completely new possibilities for design and organization.
A new home for the children
An outstanding feature of Kita Löwenstark is the new mascot Shiwa, a guardian lion who is happily welcomed by the children. In order to make the new premises child-friendly, interior designers Eva Hornung and Andrea Wedel from Atelier Oldbarn were involved in the logo planning. They not only designed the new logo, which shows a large-scale lion's head, but also selected the color scheme for the different floors of the building.
What was particularly appealing was the creative participation of the preschool children, who designed the letters for the word “Kita” themselves. These are cut out, assembled and individually adjusted. In addition, the new logo was given cheerful colors, which play a central role here. A vibrant logo that conveys the values of friendship and joy in its design is essential for such a children's environment.
A look at the meaning of colors
When choosing colors for the logo, the psychological effect of colors is of great importance. Blue represents reliability and strength, while yellow represents intrusiveness and joy. Orange as a secondary color combines the positive properties of red and yellow, which is ideal for the creative atmosphere in the Löwenstark daycare center. The interior designers made sure that the color combinations underline the feeling of security and trust.
In addition, the rounding of the letters in the Gothic A1 Black font was chosen to create a harmonious balance. Such details are crucial to promote a positive brand perception while reflecting the character of the daycare center.
Mayor Michael Gram expressed his thanks to the committed children and the creative minds behind the new logo: “The friendly and child-friendly logo is a real benefit for our community.” It not only shows the commitment of the children, but also how important it is to involve children in creative processes. Rothenfels can be proud of that!
