架构师提供的文本描述。这所儿童托儿所，从0岁到5年，坐落在Shiga省的Nagahama市的郊区。学校被设计成一个单层结构，每个空间和外部景观之间都有一种透明的感觉，我们称之为“光明之家”，它被安置在主要的托儿所区域。

我们所说的“光之屋”是圆锥形的、方形的、不同形状、不同颜色、面对不同方向的高楼大厦，将各种“灯光”带入室内空间，随着时间和季节的变化而变化。

What we mean by the “House of Light” are conical, square light-wells of different shapes, different color and facing different directions in the high ceiling bringing in various “lights” into the interior space, changing with the time and the seasons.

孩子们可以感受到这些“光”的变化，甚至可以追逐它们，和它们一起玩耍，并在日常活动中享受到这种“光”的礼物。

The children may be able to feel the changes of these “lights”, even chase them and play with them, and to enjoy this gift of “light” in their daily activities.

此外，“光之屋”的形状可以从外面看到，因为它独特的轮廓被勾勒在几乎不变的乡村风光的背景下，为它提供了更多的特征。

Furthermore, the shape of the “House of Light” may be seen from the outside as its unique silhouettes are outlined against the almost unchanging rural scenery, providing it with a little more character.
