A Study on the Design Mode of Pick-up & Drop-off Space in Kindergarten

Article Preview

Abstract:

It is very common for parents in the city to drop off and pick up their children at the kindergartens, and it usually results in severe traffic jam because traditional kindergartens lack of space for such picking-up & dropping-off behavior. This article analyzes the current status of the Pick-up & Drop-off Space in kindergartens, studies the characteristics of the Pick-up & Drop-off behavior and the resulted space demand, learns from foreign experience, explores the design mode of such spaces and finally illustrates the mode by relevant examples. The study on Pick-up & Drop-off space has an important practical significance in both improving kindergarten building design specifications and guiding the construction of kindergartens.
