I have never seen a working roof built this way. After a life of 20 years, how is the roof replaced? Amendment: would love to see a detail of roof construction that addresses rainwater runoff.

I can only imagine that the neighbors don't get it either or would just prefer the building was more neighborhood friendly. If the landscaping calls for a climbing vine to filter out the sun so the wood does not bleach out unevenly and provides a "green" solution for energy conservation, then I applaud the design team. If I may, I recommend an oriental vine commonly referred in America as Kudzu (broad leaves, open undercarriage allowing air to flow freely, and a rather significant growth per calendar year). Afterall, the kids enjoy natural beauty over manmade any day. Remember, this is not only for the neighborhood but primarily for the children, not for adults and certainly not for parents. Ask the kids for their opinion if they are of an age suitable for reasoning and communication of feelings. Track graduates to find out how they fare in upper level schools. I just don’t get it.

I'd send my kids there, and they'd probably love it (the space anyway...) i find the material palette has a simple warmth and tactility. And the volumes are well-scaled, playful, but not ostentatious. and as for introverted, i'm more comfortable having my kids play in a safe place away from the street. actually, i find this scheme strikes a nice balance with its street presence. i would have inset the polycarbonate surfaces by 6" to give a nice shadow line and emphasize the folding of the form. i hope the larch has some longevity and the details are good... i think this is quite nice, and surely a NURSERY.
