架构师提供的文本描述。除了典型的城市幼儿园

Text description provided by the architects. Beyond the typical kindergartens of the city

“花卉幼儿园”是一个项目，位于首尔，韩国首都。在首尔，人们对环境更好的教育设施提出了更高的要求，因为该市的大多数幼儿园都是通过反映经济价值、法规和高密度城市的小块土地而建造的，建筑设计密度很低。

“Flower+ Kindergarten” is a project, located in Seoul, the capital city of Korea. In Seoul, there are demanding needs for education facilities with better environment, since the most of the kindergartens in the city have been built with the high density of poor architectural design by reflecting economic values, regulations and small lot sizes in the highly dense city.

为了克服城市幼儿园的典型问题，“花卉幼儿园”项目面临着首尔典型的问题，寻找机会在小而密集的场地条件下寻找更好的教育环境的建筑解决方案。该项目位于新公寓楼，附近的杨杰溪公园和其他小口袋公园，儿童可以自由和安全地在大自然中玩耍。这项幼稚园计划的目的，是利用周围的绿地和空地，让儿童接触大自然，同时平衡幼稚园的密度和空间价值，培育他们。

To overcome the typical kindergarten’s problems in the city, the project “Flower+ Kindergarten” looked for opportunities to find out architectural solutions for better educational environments in the small and dense site conditions, facing typical problems of Seoul. The project is located in the new apartment complex, nearby the Yang-je stream park and other small pocket parks where children can play freely and safely in the nature. The kindergarten project is designed to take advantage of the surrounding green areas and open spaces to expose children to the nature while balancing between density and spatial value of the kindergarten to nurture them.

“花卉幼儿园”计划旨在为教育提供一个动态的物理环境，以及儿童与自然的互动，同时实现城市幼儿园的密度。为实现这一目标，引入了多种用途的展厅，而不是典型的韩国幼儿园的双层走廊，它们通过垂直的立式长廊向上延伸，从而使幼儿园有更多的利用空间和多样化的教育环境。它将是孩子们在成长过程中体验动态学习和自然变化的场所。

The “Flower+ Kindergarten” project is about providing a dynamic physical environment for education as well as interactions between children and the nature, while achieving the density for the kindergarten in the city. To achieve it, multi-purpose halls are introduced instead of the typical Korean kindergarten’s double-loaded corridors and they are spiraling up through vertical promenades connecting between floors so that the kindergarten can have more utilized space and diverse educational environment. It will be a place for children to experience dynamic learning and the change of nature while growing everyday.

高层公寓中的小地标

Small Landmark among the Highrise Apartments

幼儿园成为邻里社区的一个当地地标。它独特的位置和形状将提供一个当地的地标，在同质的社区，在那里每一个公寓楼看起来都是一样的。它将为孩子和邻居提供一种寻找功能的方法。

The kindergarten becomes a local landmark in the neighborhood community. Its unique location and shape will provide a local landmark in the homogeneous neighborhood, where every apartment buildings look the same. It will provide a way finding function for both children and neighbors.

每个教室的个性

Individuality of Each Classroom

每层都有三间教室和一个多功能厅，面积最大，因为根据当地的规定，教室应该超过44平方米。多功能厅既可以容纳循环，也可以为学习和玩耍提供多样的空间。在这个多用途的大厅里，孩子们可以通过圆形的墙壁认出他们的教室，因为每一个教室都可以通过其体积而不是数字或文本来脱颖而出。每个教室的圆角给人一种舒适的感觉，同时也是一个建筑解决方案，提供多用途大厅和教室之间的通道。

On each floor, there are three classrooms and one multi-purpose hall at its maximum floor area as the classroom should be more than 44m2 by the local regulations. The multi-purpose hall can accommodate circulations as well as diverse use of space for learning and playing. At the multi-purpose hall, children can recognize their classrooms through the rounded walls, because each classroom can stand out as an identifiable mass through its volumes rather than numbers or texts. The rounded corner of each classroom gives an cozy feeling at the hall, while it is also an architectural solution to provide access among the multi-purpose hall and classrooms.

儿童立式长廊

Vertical Promenade for Children

虽然不同层次的规划共享结构墙反复提供高效的建筑和规划，但多用途大厅的旋转位置为幼儿园的内部空间提供了动态的空间体验。在每一级，多用途大厅创造螺旋通道和运动。通过这个循环，孩子们可以体验到动态空间和空间的垂直变化，并在不同的层次之间交融在一起。楼梯下面和上面的空间被用于儿童游戏的规模。

While plans at different levels shares structural walls repeatedly provide efficient construction and planning, the rotating locations of the multi-purpose halls give a dynamic spatial experience for the kindergarten’s interior space. At each level the multipurpose halls create spiral access and movement. Through this circulation children can experience dynamic space and spatial change vertically and mingle together between different levels. The space created below and above the stair is utilized for children’s play-den at children’s scale.

颜色识别与颜色敏感环境

Color Recognition and Color Sensitive Environment

从内部看，每个楼层的天花板和墙壁上都有不同的颜色，这样孩子们就可以通过颜色的差异来识别空间。天花板、墙壁和窗框之间存在着微妙的差异，幼儿园的建筑环境鼓励了孩子们的色彩敏感度。随着时间的变化，白天和夜晚的颜色是不同的。白天，白色的内墙通过反射的日光注入天花板的颜色，就像反射的颜色一样。相反，在夜间，通过建筑物内部的人工照明将颜色反射到街道上。每个教室都有一个带有投影框的大窗口，这些窗口用自己指定的颜色着色，以便从街道上了解教室的位置和存在情况。孩子们可以通过投影窗口的颜色和位置，从街道上辨认出自己的教室。

From the inside, each floor is assigned with different color on its ceiling and walls so that children can recognize the space through the color difference. There are subtle difference between ceiling, wall and window frames thus the kindergarten’s built environment encourage children’s color sensitivity. Through the change of time between day and night, the color is brimming out differently. During the day time, the white interior walls are imbued with ceiling color through the reflected daylight, as the color is reflected in. To the contrary, during night time, the color is reflected out toward the street through the building’s artificial lighting inside. Each classroom has a large window with projected frames, which are colored with its own designated colors to give a clue about the classroom’s location and presence from the street. Children can identify their own classroom from the street through the color and location of the projected window.

季节性种植用袋板

Pocket Panels for Seasonal Planting

外墙面板将有额外的功能，成为盆栽。在韩国，室外垂直墙系统是有问题的，特别是因为它的极端冬季。从春天到秋天，人们可以在袋式墙板上种植植被，并按照植被的季节周期生长。越来越多的活动可以成为学校儿童课程的一部分。在韩国极端的冬天，它们几乎没有植物存活下来，而是具有三维立面、起伏的墙板的视觉功能。因此，随着种植条件和植被种类的变化，建筑物的立面将在不同季节发生剧烈变化。

Exterior wall panels will have extra function of becoming pots for planting. In Korea, outdoor vertical wall system is problematic especially for its extreme winter. Through seasons from spring to fall, people can plant vegetation in the pocket wall panels and grow them following the vegetation’s seasonal cycles. The growing activities can be a part of the school’s curriculum for children. During the extreme winter in Korea, they will hardly have plants survived but have visual functions as a three-dimensional facade, undulating wall panels. Thus, the facade of the building will change dramatically across different seasons, following the planting conditions and the kind of vegetation.

太阳、风、水和植被

Sun, Wind, Water and Vegetation

通过种植盆作为外部外观系统(Pocket面板)，幼儿园为儿童提供了生长和密切观察植被的机会。屋顶花园和下陷花园为儿童和教职员工提供额外的便利设施，以欣赏大自然在他们日常生活中的价值。雨水通过地面和屋顶花园收集在地下室的雨水池中，用于灌溉。每间教室的屋顶和自然通风窗上的光伏电池板提高了全年的整体建筑性能。

By having planting pots as its exterior façade system (Pocket panel), the kindergarten provides opportunities for children to grow and observe vegetation closely. The rooftop garden and sunken garden provides extra amenities to both children and teaching staffs to appreciate the value of nature in their everyday life. The rainwater is gathered in the rainwater tank on the basement through the ground and rooftop garden to reuse the water for irrigation. The photovoltaic panels on the roof and natural ventilation windows for each classroom enhance the overall building performance through the year.
