Tsukuigaoka Kindergarten / Naf Architect & Design
This kindergarten opened in 1979 and is located on a hill in the Tsukui district of Sagamihara City, a commuter town of Tokyo. It has accepted many children over the years and has become a household name in the local community. As the existing kindergarten building started to have various issues due to aging and having gone through a series of expansions and renovations, it was decided to build a new one as part of the future-oriented strategy. The Tsukui district is the largest in Sagamihara City, with many rivers and lakes surrounded by mountains and low population density. Since many kindergarten children use the shuttle bus, I tried driving those routes, but the area covered was too large to go around in a matter of an hour. There is a bus route set up just to pick up one child waiting in the pickup point, which seems too much but understandable considering the fact that houses are too far apart for children to see each other and that many children wish to have kindergarten shuttle bus to see many friends there.
