一所与当地景观相协调的紧凑型高层学校。它是作为北市学校重组计划的一部分，在原泷之川第七小学的原址上规划的初中学校。该校址是一个地区，其中隐约可见大正时期至战争时期的小说家村田畑文村的气氛。而北侧有一个由地形形成的大型挡土墙，是这个地区的一个宝贵的开放空间，与一个寺庙毗邻。

A Compact High-Rise School in Harmony with the Local Landscape. It is the junior high school planned on the site of the former Takinogawa 7th Elementary School as a part of the Kita City school restructuring plan. The site is a district in which the faint atmosphere of a novelist village called Tabata-Bunshimura from the Taisho period to the war period. And the north side with a large retaining wall formed from the topography is a valuable open space in this area adjacent to a temple.

在被房屋包围的约7,200㎡的狭窄场地上，需要建设体育馆、游泳池、12间普通教室和防灾基地等功能。它被规划为一所紧凑的立体初中，由8层的教学楼和2层的体育馆组成。每栋楼的屋顶上都有一个游泳池和操场。改造后的人工草皮的地面与邻近的空地和寺庙融为一体：因此，创造了当地的氛围，并留下了城市的记忆。

A gymnasium, swimming pool, 12 ordinary classrooms, and disaster prevention base functions were required on a narrow site of about 7,200㎡ surrounded by houses. It was planned as a compact and three-dimensional junior high school consisting of 8 story school building and 2-storey gymnasiums. A swimming pool and playground are located on each building’s rooftop. The ground of the modified artificial turf blends in with adjacent open space and temple: thus, creating a local atmosphere and leaving a memory of the city.

与道路相邻的学校场地向公众开放，与十字路口相邻的部分与街角的森林相连，以创造出时间的外观。在体育馆的第一层，该建筑作为当地的设施向公众开放，在第二层有一个体育馆。也可以只使用体操馆。

The school site adjacent to the road is open to the public, and a part adjacent to the intersection is connected to the forest at the corner of the street to create the appearance of the time. On the first floor of the gymnasium, the building is open public as a local facility, and a gymnasium is located on the second floor. It is also possible to use only the gymnasium.

学生从二楼的平台进入教学楼。从三楼到五楼，每个年级的学生都在每个楼层。第六层和第七层由特殊教室组成。学生主要走楼梯活动，从加强社区和上下楼层关系的角度出发，在建筑中心规划了一个缓坡的X形楼梯，有两个出入口连接开放空间。楼梯不仅是一个简单的通道，也是一个提供聚会和交流机会的空间。从五楼，学生可以进入位于体育馆顶部的操场。

Students enter the school building from the platform on the second floor. Each grade is located on each floor from the third to the fifth floor. The sixth and seventh floors consist of special classrooms. Students mainly take stairs to move around, and in the sense of reinforcing the community and relationship between the upper and lower floors, a gentle sloped X-shaped staircase is planned in the center of the building with two entrances and exits connecting the open space. Stairs are not only a simple passage but also a space of opportunity for meeting and exchange. From the fifth floor, Students can access the playground located on top of the gym.

高层教学楼采用预制预应力混凝土结构设计，以确保高耐用性和施工精度，同时减少施工噪音，因为该场地毗邻住宅区。这种高精度、高质量的结构外观是当地的教育设施，与当地景观相协调；因此，学校成为新区的地标。

The high-rise school building is designed with a precast prestressed concrete structure to ensure high durability and construction precision while reducing construction noise as the site is adjacent to a residential area. The exterior of this high-precision, and high-quality structure is a local educational facility that harmonizes with the local landscape; therefore, the school becomes the landmark of the new area.
