| The core of kindergarten culture is the common values of teachers -children and some true materials had pertinent systems. Architectural space is just such a thing. It can be seen and felt, it exerts a subtle influence on children; it has the function of blocking or stimulating educational concepts and behaviors; and above all, architectural space is figurative and symbolize, it has an influence on people as a spiritual strength. The overall arrangement of architectural space has exterior visual feature, in which implies values, aesthetic and other meanings of architects, designers and users. In brief, architectural space restricts and directs people in the form of silent rules.Since 20 century, people are tooled because of science and technology arrogating. In the settings of modern technology developing, mass culture has been deluging and overspreading, education has been becoming increasingly rigid, patterned and uniform, and losing its vitality. The overall arrangement of architectural space in kindergarten is much the same, and loses individuality. Arrangement of architectural space became a tool of suppressing people' s development. Hence, arrangement of architectural space is not only a kind of visual and material architectural space, but it is a kind of meaning space, which is made by educational concepts, systems and so on. Besides, it is a kind of space that discourses are created. In this discourse space, discourse, power and knowledge weave tight together, producing a powerful "strength" . When it meets people who stand different positions, they can struggle, hesitate, and stack up against each other; or one of them may compromise, obey......As an architectural culture, architectural space is vital revelation of kindergarten culture. It should transmit connotation and characteristic of culture, namely edify people, respect people, care about people, foster people, but not control people by means of discourse ----arrangement. The ultimate aim of quality education is to people' s development. That is to say, it is to exploit people' s potential, rich human nature, perfect personality and cherish meaningful life. New educational reform reset education in kindergarten in order to accord with quality education. This educational reform implies new elements of kindergarten culture: opening, exploring and study community. In light of these contexts, we arrange architectural space in kindergarten. So we must break homogeneity, blockading, and create a distinct, human, flexible material space in order to remain a rich space for carrying out educational activities. Above all, we should create meaning space whichis full of caring----caring for people, caring for ideas, caring for systems and so on in order to new educational concepts and practice can gain "admittance" smoothly.Culture is such a complicate polytope that has many rich connotations. Architectural space is only "a piece of leaf" of kindergarten culture, we can take the "leaf" to study a "spot" , in order that kindergarten culture, the overall arrangement of architectural space, quality education and people' s development can construct and develop together.
