在日本的一个内城，扩大幼儿园的规模被认为是等待幼儿园的儿童的紧急事务。然而，它经常被邻里视为噪音源而遭到反对。
The enlargement of the nursery school is considered to be urgent business for children on nursery school waiting lists in an inner city in Japan. However, it is often objected as a noise source by neighborhood.
孩子们在那里舒适地度过他们的时间，邻里们也对孩子们有好感。这种情况将是最合适的。在城市环境中，使这种正常的情况是困难的。这是一个问题，我们如何使最合适的情况。
Children spend their time there comfortably, and the neighborhood feel favorably to children. That situation will be most suitable. In urban environment, to make such a normal situation is difficult. It is an issue how we enable the most suitable situation.
这个幼儿园是在高密度的城市里，而且土地的形式很奇怪。我设计了一个穿过幼儿园建筑的门厅，在幼儿园和社区之间创造一个合适的环境。这个长长的门厅只有两端面向公共道路。
This nursery school is in high-density town, and the land is strange form. I designed the foyer which crossed the building of this nursery school to make a suitable situation between this nursery and the neighborhood. Only the both ends of this long foyer faces on public roads.
门厅成为与邻里之间的缓冲区。他们既没有感觉到孩子们的身影，也没有经常听到明亮的声音。此外，门厅还充当了儿童的大型游戏空间的角色。当孩子们抬头看向高高的窗户时，他们可以感受到那里的太阳光每时每刻都在变化。窗框的颜色是通过Google-Earth来选择附近屋顶的颜色。在不久的将来，孩子们可以在附近找到相同的颜色。这个颜色项目是与瑞士艺术家汉斯-彼得-基斯勒合作的。
The foyer becomes the buffer from the neighborhood. They feel neither the figures of children nor bright voice, so often. Also the foyer fills the role as large playing space for children. When children look up at high-windows, they can feel solar light to change every moment there. Colors of window-jamb are selected by the color of neighborhood roofs using Google-Earth. In near future children can find same color in the neighborhood. This color project is collaboration with Swiss artist Hans-Peter Kistler.
在城市内部，有时很难确保大型学校花园。在这种情况下，附近的公园就成了花园。在这所幼儿园里，有几个小露台，夏天可以游泳，四季都可以让婴儿玩耍。
It is sometimes difficult to secure large school garden in the inner city. In such case the park of the neighborhood functions as the garden. In this nursery school, there are several small terraces for swimming pool in the summer and for the infant groups in all season.
附近的居民有时会感受到孩子们的身影，但并不经常有最佳的平衡状况。
幼儿园被邻里看好，那么儿童的活动就会使城市变得有吸引力。
The neighborhood feel the figures of children sometimes, not so often with the best balanced situation.
The nursery schools are taken favorably by neighborhood, then the activity of children makes the city attractive.
