幼儿园靠近多瑙河，周围环绕着社会主义预制房屋计划的十层公寓楼。在保留现有的 1980 年代预制的两层幼儿园建筑的同时，这种现代化和扩建赋予了幼儿园全新的整体身份。房间向原来的庭院扩展，前面增加了一个有盖的木制户外游乐场。建筑物在新屋顶的轮廓下打开，以弥补预制板块的封闭和刚性环境。 

The kindergarten is located close to the river Danube, surrounded by a ten-story block of flats from the socialist prefabricated housing program. While preserving the existing prefabricated two-story kindergarten building from the 1980s, this modernization and expansion have given the kindergarten a new and integral identity. The rooms were expanded towards the original courtyard, and a covered, wooden outdoor playground was added in the front. The building opens up under the new roof’s outline to compensate for the shut and rigid environment of the prefabricated panel blocks.

由于靠近多瑙河，该机构是一个很好的例子，以一种鼓舞人心的方式将基于水资源利用的可持续概念、环境教育和建筑联系起来。

Due to the proximity of the Danube, this institution is a good example of linking the sustainability concept - based on the theme of water utilization-, environmental education and architecture in an inspiring way.

概念-背景和策略-位置

该建筑位于匈牙利布达佩斯北部的多瑙河附近的一个住宅区。幼儿园和其他社会机构排列在这个住宅区的中心，周围是十层的房屋，与周围的汽车交通隔离。整个地区建于20世纪80年代后半期，是社会主义委员会计划的一部分。

Concept – context and strategy - Location - The building is located in a housing estate near the Danube in Hungary, north of Budapest. The kindergarten and other social institutions are lined up in the center of this housing estate, surrounded by ten-story houses and isolated from the surrounding car traffic. The whole area was built in the second half of the 1980s as part of the socialist panel program.

原来的建筑是一个两层，有8个房间的幼儿园。这种设计在全国各地类似的社会主义住房项目中都可以看到。它是根据当时流行的技术趋势，由预制钢筋混凝土元素和混凝土面板建造而成。

The original building was a two-story and eight-room kindergarten. It was a type of design that could be seen all over the country in similar socialist housing projects. It was built from prefabricated reinforced concrete elements and concrete panels, according to popular technological trends of the time.

项目——当地议会决定对建筑进行现代化和扩建，但没有必要增加容量。扩建的原因是卫生间、更衣室的空间不足，以及其他次要服务区域的缺乏。对于我们来说，与幼儿园教师和教学负责人合作开发最终的建筑和室内设计方案是非常重要的。

Program - The local council decided to modernize and expand the building but there was no need to increase the capacity. The reason for the extension was the lack of space in the restrooms, changing rooms, and the absence of other secondary service areas. It was important for us to develop the final architectural and interior design program in collaboration with the kindergarten teachers and the pedagogy leader.

建筑-材料，和策略

内部由现有建筑严格、克制的特征来定义，开口、家具和口音上的木质内部装饰软化了这一特征。最具特色的元素是通往后院的木制游戏平台，它通过滑梯和户外游戏增加了空间的兴奋点。它的外观以大开口、木制窗户和独特的新颜色为特征，以便将幼儿园与周围占据匈牙利大部分城市景观的10层高的预制灰色建筑区分开来。建筑的重新设计打破了其僵硬的块状外观，以新的建筑特征丰富了住宅市场。

Construction – materials, and strategy - The interiors were defined by the strict, restrained character of the existing building, which was softened by a wooden interior finish on openings, furniture, and accents. The most characteristic element is the wooden play-terrace that opens to the backyard, which increases the excitement of the space with a slide and outdoor games. Its exterior appearance is characterized by large openings, wooden windows, and a distinctly new color, in order to set the kindergarten apart from the surrounding ten-story tall, prefabricated gray buildings that dominate much of Hungary’s cityscapes. The re-design of the building breaks its rigid, block-like appearance and enriches the housing market with a new architectural character.
