架构师提供的文本描述。幼儿园位于上海北郊嘉定新城，既不是传统意义上的农村，也不是城市。面对不明确和不确定的环境，建筑强调自我改进，直接介入网站，并将建筑与网站进行了非常清晰的并列。与开放环境相比，幼儿园是一个内向的区域。建筑一般分为两个部分：一个是合理高效的区域，由15个教室和多个游戏室组成；另一个是有意扩大的交通空间，它是一个中庭，带有连接不同楼层的坡道。

Text description provided by the architects. The kindergarten is located in the Jiading new town of the northern suburb in Shanghai, it is neither countryside nor urban in the traditional sense. Face to the ambiguous and uncertain surrounding, the architecture emphasizes the self-improvement, directly intervening into the site, and making a very clear juxtaposition of the architecture and the site. Compare with the open environment, the kindergarten acts as an introversive area. The architecture is divided into two general parts: one is the rational and efficient area, which is composed of 15 classrooms and a number of playrooms; the other is the intentionally enlarged transportation space, which is an atrium with ramp ways connecting with different storey.

这个中庭在情感和娱乐性的空间体验中做出了贡献，这超出了日常生活的经验。除了交通功能外，它的模糊性和不确定性也为空间利用提供了许多可能性。外部形式和外观也代表了对内关系的必然性。除了这种建筑的两个分开的形状，不同楼层之间不断变换的高度也被代表在外墙上。

This atrium contributes to an emotional and entertaining spatial experience that is beyond the common daily experiencing. Beside the transportation function, it is the vagueness and uncertainty that also provide a number of possibilities in spatial utilization. The external form and the façade represent the inevitability to the internal relation as well. Apart from the two separated shapes of this architecture, the constantly transformed height among different floors is been represented onto the façade as well.

开放活动空间被放置在这些变化的立面上，庭院由传统的水平方向垂直方向延伸。因此，儿童的庭院和活动是立面的重要组成部分。每天，孩子们和老师们在建筑和场地之间穿梭，在建筑的两个分离部分之间穿梭。他们被建筑所遮蔽，体验内外，激情与理性的平衡。

The open activity space are being put into these changed elevation places, and the courtyards has been extended along the vertical direction instead of the horizontal direction in the traditional method. Thus, the courtyards and activities of the children act as an important part of the façades. Everyday, kids and teachers are shuttling between the architecture and the site, between the two-separated parts of the architecture. They are shielded by the architecture and experiencing the inside and outside, the balance of passion and reason.
