Appreciation towards Atelier Cube for providing the following description:

Atelier Cube设计了这个位于日本兵库县的幼儿园。

建筑表皮那具有层次和韵律的方形混凝土板成为了室外游乐场的背景。外皮大小不提，位置没有规律的窗洞为室内引入光，风格迥异的空间体验。这样的设计从环境中脱颖而出并激发孩子们的感官体验。

Christ the King Kindergarten

This is a plan to rebuild an historical kindergarten where the teaching is based on the Montessori Method. On the first floor I created a ‘house’ (nursery room) a ‘garden’ (middle space) and a ‘society’ (playground) with both an inner and outer skin. On the second floor I created an inside and outside space by making an artificial ground. Children play with Montessori educational materials in the ‘house’ and dance in the ‘garden’. Over the outer skin we can see the playground and children running around there. We can taste light, wind, sounds and smells through various openings. There are diverse connections between inside and outside. A sense of distance. These appeal to children’s various sensibilities.
