先進(jìn)科學(xué)研究中心(ASRC)的兩座大樓為紐約市立大學(xué)打造出一個(gè)科學(xué)門戶。這一最高水準(zhǔn)的設(shè)施位于山頂,擁有哈萊姆區(qū)俯瞰視野,為國(guó)際知名研究人員的吸附地及大學(xué)教師和學(xué)生的知識(shí)中心。一座景觀廣場(chǎng)于地面層連接了兩座翼樓。
兩座建筑通過(guò)統(tǒng)一的起伏玻璃幕墻與景觀廣場(chǎng)相連,呈現(xiàn)出具有凝聚力的外部設(shè)計(jì),同時(shí)在大樓內(nèi)部又保持獨(dú)特的個(gè)性。彩釉玻璃肋板的間距為30英寸,根據(jù)所處的位置,呈一定角度的開(kāi)啟或關(guān)閉狀態(tài)。在標(biāo)準(zhǔn)書(shū)桌高度,肋板可以緩解來(lái)自東西向的炫光。ASRC內(nèi)部采用了體現(xiàn)檔次的中性色調(diào),而第二棟建筑—探索中心則使用了大膽的顏色來(lái)襯托年輕學(xué)生群體。在KPF設(shè)計(jì)中,大樓的中央樓梯被視為一個(gè)興趣點(diǎn)。彎曲的玻璃上涂覆了多色薄膜,以產(chǎn)生微妙的棱形效果,從而與辦公區(qū)和社交空間形成完美互補(bǔ)。
ASRC的科學(xué)人員希望采用直線型和模塊化的平面布局—由業(yè)態(tài)的設(shè)備和功能確定。KPF設(shè)計(jì)團(tuán)隊(duì)提供了較小規(guī)模的靈活性,來(lái)調(diào)和實(shí)驗(yàn)室的空間模塊的重復(fù)性。
每座建筑內(nèi)辦公室的帶狀區(qū)域通過(guò)連接廣場(chǎng)面對(duì)面,表達(dá)出一種流暢的對(duì)話——一種對(duì)研究和學(xué)習(xí)本質(zhì)的象征性信號(hào)。從項(xiàng)目的基本概念到建筑立面的過(guò)渡,壓縮和釋放的手法也轉(zhuǎn)化為一項(xiàng)平衡厚重和精巧的技藝。
設(shè)計(jì)也通過(guò)精心選材來(lái)表達(dá)此類想法。大樓基礎(chǔ)采用了石南花灰色石材,呼應(yīng)校園的最初形態(tài)。這棟建于20世紀(jì)20年代的歷史建筑主要采用曼哈頓片巖這種本地天然材料建造。ASRC項(xiàng)目使用的紋理石材則源自中國(guó),反映了原始石材的基調(diào)。設(shè)計(jì)團(tuán)隊(duì)開(kāi)發(fā)出由小塊組成的看似隨機(jī)的面板系統(tǒng),帶來(lái)了有機(jī)的效果,確保其在景觀中的環(huán)境營(yíng)造。地面至天空的過(guò)渡也被延續(xù)到動(dòng)態(tài)的彩釉玻璃幕墻之上。
The two buildings of the Advanced Science Research Center (ASRC) create a gateway for science at the City University of New York. OverIooking HarIem at the crest of a hiII, the state-of-the-art facility serves as a magnet for internationally recognized researchers and acts as an intellectual hub for the college’s faculty and students. A landscaped plaza links the two wings at the ground level.
With uniform, undulating glass skins linked by a landscaped plaza, the two buildings express cohesive exteriors, while maintaining distinct personalities within their respective interiors. Fritted glass fins are spaced 30 inches apart, angled to appear open or closed depending on one’s vantage point. At typical desk height, the fins also mitigate sun glare from the east and west. The ASRC’s interior textural palette of neutral tones that communicates sophistication, while the second building– the Discover Center – uses bold colors to reflect its community of younger students. KPF’s design treats the block’s central stairs as a point of interest. A polychromatic film was applied to its curved glass, generating a subtle, prismatic effect – a solution that perfectly complements the office and social spaces.
The ASRC’s scientific staff sought a rectilinear and modular plan, dictated by the equipment and functions of its program. The KPF design team made sure that flexibility a smaller scale presented an opportunity to offset the rigor of the lab bars.
Ribbons of office space within each building face each other across the connecting plaza in expression of a fluid dialogue – a symbolic signal to the nature of research and learning. The nature of compression and release also translates to the project’s foundation and its transition into the buildings’ facades – a feat of balancing between gravity and levity.
Materials were specifically chosen to express similar ideas. Heather gray stone at the base echoes the college’s original campus. Built in the 1920’s the historic quad was predominately rendered in Manhattan schist, a material natural to the borough. The textured stone used on the ASRC project,originating from China, reflects the original stone’s tone. The design team developed a panelized system of blocks that appear random, lending an organic quality that assures its context within the landscape. The transition from ground to sky continues into the dynamic, fritted, glass curtainwall.
