Mei Amis represents a groundbreaking concept in South Jakarta, offering a diverse range of after-school classes and activities tailored to nurture and inspire children's growth. This innovative initiative introduces a holistic approach to education and enrichment, encompassing activities like yoga, cooking, creative writing, therapeutic sessions, and play.

In order to accommodate these dynamic offerings, Mei Amis transformed a historic mansion villa into a multifunctional and nurturing space, carefully preserving its architectural heritage while repurposing it to meet the needs of the community.

​

The renovation involved a thoughtful and comprehensive transformation of the mansion. The first floor was ingeniously converted into a series of spacious and well-equipped classrooms, fostering an environment where students can engage in various forms of learning. Meeting rooms were incorporated, providing a dedicated space for collaborative discussions and workshops, encouraging a sense of community and cooperation among students and staff. Additionally, a library cafe and reading spaces were thoughtfully established on the ground floor, promoting the joy of reading and intellectual exploration, offering a serene and welcoming area for students to immerse themselves in the world of books.

​

The playground area at the mansion's backyard was reimagined to ignite the spirit of adventure and fun for the children who visit Mei Amis. As a centerpiece of this outdoor space, a magnificent elephant-shaped slide was designed and constructed, promising exhilarating descents and imaginative play. The slide served as a symbol of the playful spirit that Mei Amis embodies.
