This article explores contemporary approaches to designing a modern preschool educational environment. The study examines pedagogical, psychological, and technological principles that underpin the creation of a safe, developmental, and child-centered learning space. Special attention is given to regulatory and methodological foundations, functional zoning, and the integration of innovative educational technologies. The paper also highlights the importance of inclusive design and sustainable solutions in supporting children’s cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development. The findings emphasize that a systematic and interdisciplinary approach to preschool environment design enhances educational quality and contributes to the holistic development of young learners.
