架构师提供的文本描述。为阿尔伯克基公立学校系统设计的新贝克建筑设计教室被设计为一个令人兴奋和实用的设施，它促进了创造性，有利于教和学。这个项目是在新墨西哥州第一个获得USGBC LEED的学校，黄金认证。

Text description provided by the architects. The new Baker Architecture + Design classroom building for the Albuquerque public school system is designed as an exciting and functional facility, which promotes creativity and is conducive to teaching and learning. This project is the first in New Mexico to obtain USGBC LEED For Schools, Gold Certification.

LEED Gold是通过以下方式实现的：专门的回收房、高可循环利用的建筑材料含量、优良的隔热性能、由回收蓝色牛仔裤制成的墙壁绝缘材料；节能供暖和照明装置；新鲜空气供应和空气交换；低用水管道固定装置；所有房间的被动式太阳能照明加上多个照明级别，使其与自然采光协调一致。

LEED Gold was achieved through the following: a dedicated recycling room, high recycled content of construction materials, superior thermal insulation, wall insulation made of recycled blue jeans; energy efficient heating and lighting fixtures; fresh air supply and air exchanges; low water use plumbing fixtures; passive solar lighting in all rooms plus multiple lighting levels to work in harmony with natural day-lighting.

太阳能方向和自然采光策略对建筑设计的影响最为深远。场地的限制需要南北线和东西向的曝光，这在新墨西哥州的气候中是很困难的。

The solar orientation and natural daylighting strategies had the most profound effect on the building's design. The site constraints required a north-south alignment and east-west exposures which can be difficult in New Mexico's climate.

建筑师们的反应是在东侧和西侧有10英尺深的人行道，每个教室都有大的北向光显示器。艺术/音乐室作为当地社区活动的重要集合空间，被设计为一个突出的社区地标。

The architects responded with 10' deep walkways on the east and west sides, and large north-facing light monitors in every classroom. The Art/Music Room serves a second function as an important gathering space for local community events and is designed as a prominent neighborhood landmark.

建筑工地很紧，三面都是室外游乐区。可建的脚印似乎把这个地区分割开来，切断了校园其他地方的草地运动场。设计的反应是在新的建筑中创造一条与现有循环路径相一致的风道，并加强这种关系。该设计还提供了一个庇护等候区，毗邻父母的落客/上落车道。

The building site was very tight; bounded on three sides by outdoor play areas. The buildable footprint appeared to bifurcate this area and cut off the grass play field from the rest of the campus. The design response was to create a breezeway in the new building that would align with an existing circulation path and enhance the relationship. The design also provides a sheltered waiting area adjacent to the parent drop-off / pick-up lanes.
