这是由Collingridge And Smith Architects (CASA)设计的扇尾鸽托儿所。项目位于新西兰奥克兰一个新的城市中心，地理位置显著。客户期望该建筑采用大胆的建筑语言，在这个布满典型住宅和商业大楼中具有强烈独特的建筑形象。
建筑平面采用了三角型的布局，立面则采用了扇形的抽象形式，就似新西兰本土特有的扇尾鸽。因此托儿所以此为名，叫扇尾鸽托儿所。从入口看，醒目的屋顶形式就似扇尾鸽的羽翼，而每个对角的形成呈现出航海的感觉，看起来就像是游艇在航行，形态优美而醒目。

The site for Fantails is located in a prominent position at the centre of a new subdivision of Auckland.
The client wanted the building to be a bold architectural statement, clearly standing out from the typical houses and commercial buildings around.
The triangular plan and elevation of the building is abstracted from the form of the fantail, a native NZ bird with a striking fanned tail, after which the Childcare is named.
Viewed from the entrance, the striking roof form comes together to look like the fan of the fantail, whilst from each opposite corner, the form takes on a more nautical feel, looking like overlapping sails on a yacht, thereby recalling its location in the ‘city of sails’.
