Abstract

The subject of the investigated project is a kindergarten with the capacity of 70 kids. The desired site is placed in along the side of Zayenderood River, Abshar St. city of Isfahan, in Iran that through two sides of north and west connects to the street and through two sides of south and east is in the vicinity. Site measurement is about 8462 m². There has been brought two questions at the beginning of design: 1-How can we use renewable energies like water, wind, canopy, soil and solar in kindergarten project? 2-Do the elements which are being used through natural energies play a major role in the formation of architecture form? By paying attention to the arising questions and natural potentials (desired wind direction and its velocity, closeness to the river, weather, conditions, sun light) a kind of integrated wind catcher walls have been designed which are pinpointing in this cast.
