随着中国二胎政策的全面开放，未来几年的人口增幅将逐步刺激中国的教育产业。毫无疑问，人们对教育设施和优质校园的需求将不断增加。有人说，中国将成为未来世界教育的弄潮儿。多年以来，B+H在国内外教育建设领域所积累的丰富经验，使其拥有了可以在设计之时将建筑本身也打造成学习工具的能力。面对中国未来广阔的教育前景与庞大的市场，B+H也随时准备着，为教育领域打造更多更智能更优秀的设计，从而造福未来的年轻一代。
As China has officially withdrawn the one-child policy, encouraging couples to have more kids, the booming population will tremendously impact the future of education. It is certain that the demand for high quality educational facilities and new campuses will increase rapidly. Clearly, China is becoming a trend-setter for the future of international education. With many years of educational institutional design under its belt, in China and internationally, B+H has honed the skills of high-performance educational infrastructure development and is adept at turning entire buildings into learning tools. With this wealth of experience, B+H is poised to remain a player, adding ever-more intelligent designs to the education sector.
谈到校园设计和教育设施的项目，B+H可以说是拥有丰富的实践经验，在国内外拥有很多成功案例。这其中包含厦门国家会计学院、耀中国际学校上海虹桥校区、上海美国学校浦西校区、不列颠哥伦比亚大学—学生会大楼、温莎大学工程创新中心、皇后大学以及不列颠哥伦比亚大学—Marine住宅区，北欧国际管理学院等项目，而最值得一提的是最新建成的昆山加拿大国际学校。

今年是B+H 在中国深耕25周年的日子，作为B+H 在中国25周年，对未来下一代的关心和献礼，昆山加拿大国际学校于2016年底完成了第一期的建造。为此，我们还特别采访了该项目的核心负责人， B+H的全球合伙人——王其优女士。“我们在设计之初就希望将来的学校可以吸引各种国际背景的师生，因此在设计上非常注重文化的包容性和一体化原则；空间形态上强调了互动性和开放性，以最好的适应21世纪最新的教育理念。人性化的细节与环保材料的全方面运用，更是反映了我们将孩子的健康和安全放在首位的初衷。该项目以北美绿色设计理念为依据，获得中国绿色二星认证。”王女士如是说道。

This year, B+H’s 25th Anniversary in China, continues to see the architectural firm produce the remarkable. As a gift for the next generation in China, the Canadian International School Kunshan Phase 1 was completed at the end of 2016. We had a chance to interview the key leader of this project, Ms. Celine Wang, a B+H principal whose experience is rich in education projects. ‘When we designed the campus, we tried to create an environment that attracts a diversity of students and staff. The design reflects cultural inclusion and integration principles. We provide a variety of integrated spaces that allow people to learn and interact more closely. We placed students’ safety as the 1st priority in our design and brought in the most advanced design concepts to implement. All the materials we used are harmless and eco-friendly. And finally the campus is LEED certified and was also awarded 2 stars by Green Building Label (the green building evaluation system in China),’ says Celine.
基于对自然资源管理的设计，将自然处理方式最大化的原则，B+H在校园全方位地运用可持续发展的设计手法，战略性安排建筑布局，并实施了生态雨水收集和废水管理以及地源热泵系统等基础设施。在设计过程中，B+H的团队十分注重学校与周边环境的互动，并且寻求最大的可能性将校园核心建筑与绿化，水体，运动场地等开放空间进行有机的融合。
Based on natural resource management and capitalizing on natural processes without over-engineering, B+H used sustainable infrastructure across the campus and also utilized an integrated systems approach to storm, rain and waste water. B+H always looks for the opportunities to organically connect the central campus with surrounding open space amenities, exploring opportunities for connections with the surrounding campus.
当然，在宏观的考量之外，校园的建筑设计和室内设计也处处彰显着独到的用心和细节关怀。作为一所来自加拿大的国际学校，你可以看见很多加拿大的特有元素，比如独木舟和枫叶等。此外，学校的大堂，咖啡厅，室内体育馆等公共场地选择了红色和蓝色进行点缀，因为红色和蓝色看起来朝气蓬勃，充满活力；木质的天花板和地板非常的环保，看起来也更加自然，对孩子的健康也是极为有利的。
Apart from the architectural design, the interior design of the building is also very impressive and detail oriented. As a Canadian international school, you can observe many recognizable Canadian elements in the design, such as canoes and maple leaves. In public areas, such as the lobby, cafeteria and indoor stadium, red and blue are the main tones since they look young and energetic. The wood ceilings and floors in the lobby create a natural holistic feeling which is also good for children’s health.

除了项目的负责人，我们还专门采访了昆山加拿大国际学校校董袁灼权先生，他表示整个校设计理念很有北美风格，十分国际化和现代化。环境与空间的设计很有特色，功能多样、实用性很强，让人享受在里面工作和学习的状态。专家们也认为国内少有这种设计理念的学校，着实与众不同令人印象深刻。同时，袁董对B+H的服务表示了高度的赞赏。“设计很专业，在沟通很顺畅，服务很到位！”
We also interviewed Mr. Yuan Zhuoquan, a member of the board of the Canadian international school in Kunshan. "The whole campus has a very North American style; the design concept is very international." says Mr.Yuan. "We like the design. Every space is well used and multi-functional. People enjoy occupying and working inside the building." Some experts come to visit the campus and they are all impressed by the modern design and it is difficult to find a similar one anywhere in China. In general, He speaks very highly of B+H's work: "We like to work with B+H, it is a very professional team with great service and communication."
B+H的设计哲学体现了其跨专业合作以及综合设计手法的主旨。他们清楚最佳的设计作品来源于与人文环境、景观与建筑设计、可持续发展设计的完美整合。B+H设计团队专注于提供业主要求与项目实际情况之间的平衡，因此，B+H打造的教育建筑设计一直与未来校园扩建需求紧密结合。在项目设计过程中，公司的合伙人负责与业主之间的直接接洽，从而指导整个项目团队将其专业、深入的知识基础应用于每个设计方案。

The B+H educational design philosophy is exemplified by their commitment to interdisciplinary teams with a common integrated design approach. They know that the best work is the product of “partnership” in which programming and planning are inextricably linked with the civic environment, landscape design, architecture, and sustainable design. The B+H team provides the balance appropriate to each client and project, so decisions about buildings are fully integrated with decisions about the future growth of a campus. As they implement their design approach, firm principals, charged with direct client contact and account ability, orchestrate and inspire the team while tapping into the vast knowledge base within the firm.
“一个精心设计的开发项目是一个社区中最为宝贵的财富。”王其优如是说，“它不仅对未来员工、学生以及社区人员有一定影响，还对社区氛围起到了支持的作用，同时给人们留下持久的印象。”昆山加拿大国际学校除了会举办向社会开放的夏令营之外，也不定期举办一些其他活动，深受人们的喜欢。昆山政府也同样对这个项目非常满意，认为是对昆山国际化的进程的一个重要贡献。
‘A well thought-out development, is one of a community’s most valuable assets,’ says Celine. ‘It affects the perceptions of prospective staff, students and neighbours, supports the community experience and makes an enduring and lasting impression.’ The Canadian international school in Kunshan often holds summer events which are open to public, and also organizes activities which are popular in the local community. And, apart from the local population, the Kunshan government appreciates the project very much, as it is forms a nucleus from which Kunshan is developing as an international city.
相信在B+H的不断努力下，中国未来将拥有越来越多极具人文关怀的设计作品。我们总是说孩子是世界的未来，B+H在未来将呈现更多的优秀设计，造福更多的后代。
In the future，B+H will continue to build on its local and international experience, bringing new concepts and technologies across the nation. We always say that children are the future, under B+H’s guidance, more and more children will benefit from the best design and technology.
