架构师提供的文本描述。坐落在峡谷的边缘，俯瞰圣地亚哥的天际线，佛拉托湖畔的弗朗西斯帕克学校(FrancisParker School)带来了一种强烈的可持续设计与南加州方言的融合。

Text description provided by the architects. Perched next to the edge of a canyon and overlooking San Diego’s skyline, the revamped Francis Parker School by Lake|Flato Architects brings a strong mixture of sustainable design with Southern California vernacular.

2002年，FPS的家长和教职员工决定以一种当代而负责任的方式改造他们的校园，这将给学校带来一种相关的美感，甚至对未来的几代人来说也是如此。在创造了一个全国性的竞赛寻找一个设计师，学校选择了湖弗拉托建筑师，谁是更多地完成了这个口径和性质的项目。

In 2002, the parent and faculty leaders at FPS made the decision to renovate their campus in a contemporary yet responsible way that would give the school a relevant aesthetic even for generations to come. After creating a nationwide competition looking for a designer, the school chose Lake|Flato Architects, who are more than accomplished with projects of this caliber and nature.

校园的基本布局涉及到一系列相互依存的庭院和结构，把学校的各个组成部分联系在一起，同时强调学校的外部功能和内部循环。教室都是自然通风的，有透明的、可操作的墙壁，使与室外的关系变得无拘无束；教育本身变得可见和互动。

The basic layout of the campus involves a series of interdependent courtyards and structures, connecting the various components of the school with as much emphasis on the exterior function and circulation as the interior. The class rooms are all naturally ventilated and have transparent, operable walls that make relation to the outdoors undeviating; the education itself becomes visible and interactive.

该项目对白话的承诺体现在使用传统的倾斜墙建造方法和红木墙面。这样的设计不仅经济有效，而且比加州的能源效率标准高出近30%。

The project’s commitment to vernacular is perceived in its use of traditional tilt wall construction methods and redwood siding. The resultant design is not only economically efficient, but supersedes California’s energy efficiency standards by almost 30%.
