Short description

Project is near Science Industrial Park, school was created using the advantages of natural environment to improve preschool children's exploration the natural ecology.
This is a metabolic growth with time the building is a 4x4 framework made of layered systems that extend horizontally and vertically like an organism under cell division. Searching for an optimal combination of space inside this framework. Wish to define the boundary between indoors and outdoors with the most simple glass and cubic elements.We try to make the educational space and play space unfold at a higher level below the ground level, symbolizing that the growth of all things basically originates from the earth. While other activity spaces, such as teacher offices, conference rooms and art museum, are placed on the upper floors. The buildings can be freely extended upwards like plants, and the architectural space on the higher floors is only defined by glass because of the integration of the natural environment. The roof of the classroom is covered with many plants. It can effectively avoid the heat conduction caused by direct sunlight, keeping the room cool, while having good lighting at the same time.Has an ecological pool the rocks produces algae an important source of fish food. The minor food chain created migratory birds will also stop by to create a small biosphere. After the construction water retention and greening of original property will be maintained as much as possible the land won’t be changed by the building, we forward to protecting the environment for the next gen. Around the kindergarten We put in animal statues of giraffes to create an atmosphere that combines the environment and biology.In the post-pandemic era. Need to rethink our lifestyle and establish an independent space. When people enter need to comply with pandemic prevention.
