竹山，位于湖北西北秦巴山区腹地，地形陡峭，其县城在堵河的环抱中，因平地较少而呈现出密集的状态。随着文化中心及政府办公向堵河对岸的外迁，在难得的一片带状平地上，新的综合体因运而生，承接城市生活的外移并与老城遥相呼应。作为吸引竹山人口回游的重要一环——南山五福堂外国语学校，便位于这片综合体之中。
Zhushan, located in the hinterland of Qinba Mountain Area in Northwest Hubei Province, has a steep terrain. Surrounded by the river, its county seat is dense due to less flat land. With the cultural center and government offices moving to the other side of the river, on a rare strip of flat land, a new complex is born, undertaking the outward movement of urban life and echoing the old city. Nanshan wufutang foreign language school, as an important part of attracting Zhushan people to travel back, is located in this complex.

南山五福堂外国语学校建设用地约为21460平米的，需要容纳小学，初中，高中共45个班，总地上建筑面积20000平米，四周均被道路和其他商业居住建筑包围，间距的退让，规范及日照的要求，小中高的功能分区，使得建筑注定以紧张的布局展开。
The site area of Nanshan wufutang foreign language school is about 21460 square meters. It needs to accommodate 45 classes of primary school, junior high school and senior high school, with a total floor area of 20000 square meters. It is surrounded by roads and other commercial and residential buildings. Due to the requirements of spacing ，specification and sunshine, and the functional zoning of small, middle and high schools, the building is destined to be carried out in a tense layout.

建筑的一层，基本处于满铺的状态，六组功能体块，在满足规范和使用的前提下，刚刚好地被退距要求卡在所处的位置上。食堂，风雨操场，报告厅均设置在教学楼中间25米退距的庭院之中，仅在教学楼山墙之间，空出一条15米宽的通廊。我们希望在这个南北入口的主要通道上，同时也是各个功能体块主要连通空间上，创造一种独特的联系。

The first floor of the building is basically in the state of full paving, and six groups of functional blocks, on the premise of meeting the specifications and use, have just been stuck in their position by the spacing requirements. Canteen, covered court, lecture hall are set in the middle of the teaching building, only in the teaching building between the gables, leaving a 15 meter wide corridor. We hope to create a unique connection on the main channel of the North-South entrance and the main connecting space of each functional block.

小学，初中和高中教学楼，功能上并不需要每层连通；共用的实验楼则需要与他们分别有更紧密的联系。因此，我们根据需求设置了不同位置和楼层的曲线连廊，在南北这条通廊上，高低错落的交织在一起。流动的水平线条，把主楼包围起来，同时形成学校主要的外部形象。曲线的处理，使连廊的层层变化，产生独特的错落感，也使观者对周边环境，产生独特的视角和取景框。秩序的教室内墙以深灰色涂料退进，活泼的联系以白色涂料推出，加上顶板之下每层渐变的色彩，都意在这紧张的校园生活中营造些许温度与轻松。

场地北高南低高差为6米，利用此高差形成双首层的活动空间，南面入口平接各种架空活动室；而北面入口平接地面庭院空间，两层空间通过各种镂空庭院和楼梯联系在一起，从而使地面的活动场地产生了水平和垂直两个方向上的趣味和延展。
The height difference between the north and the south of the site is 6 meters, which forms a double first floor activity space, and the south entrance connects with various overhead activity rooms; The north entrance is connected with the courtyard space on the ground, and the two-tier space is connected by various hollowed out courtyards and stairs, which makes the ground activity site interesting and extended in both horizontal and vertical directions.
