新落成的蘋(píng)果新加坡濱海灣金沙旗艦店是新加坡海岸線(xiàn)的又一奇觀。建筑師設(shè)計(jì)了一個(gè)直徑30 米且?guī)в泻谏ＡУ鬃娜ＡA頂結(jié)構(gòu)。該項(xiàng)目是蘋(píng)果設(shè)計(jì)團(tuán)隊(duì)與福斯特建筑事務(wù)所共同合作的成果。

來(lái)自福斯特事務(wù)所的David Summerfield 這樣說(shuō)道：“蘋(píng)果新加坡濱海灣金沙旗艦店是一個(gè)游走于透明和陰影之間的項(xiàng)目。我們?cè)噲D通過(guò)這個(gè)特殊結(jié)構(gòu)的設(shè)計(jì)，打破內(nèi)外空間的邊界，從而創(chuàng)造一個(gè)漂浮于水面之上的微型平臺(tái)，并給來(lái)訪者提供一個(gè)欣賞新加坡天際線(xiàn)和海灣的絕佳視角?！?/p>

從結(jié)構(gòu)上來(lái)說(shuō)，該旗艦店運(yùn)用了鋼筋和玻璃這兩種混合材料。同時(shí)，鋼制截面的網(wǎng)格結(jié)構(gòu)還起到了重量支撐的作用，而彎曲的結(jié)構(gòu)玻璃面板則對(duì)鋼構(gòu)件起到了橫向的支撐作用，并對(duì)整體結(jié)構(gòu)形態(tài)起到了一定的強(qiáng)化與穩(wěn)固。建筑師還安裝了遮陽(yáng)系統(tǒng)，以保證內(nèi)部空間的溫度舒適值。而每一片玻璃都經(jīng)過(guò)了精心的挑選，以實(shí)現(xiàn)最終114片玻璃全部符合新加坡專(zhuān)屬可持續(xù)認(rèn)證標(biāo)準(zhǔn)BCA 的綠色認(rèn)證。

Recently opened to the public, Apple Marina Bay Sands creates a new distinctive presence on Singapore Bay. The 30-metre-diameter structure is a fully glazed dome with a black glass base,complementing the sister pavilions through its scale and materiality. The design is the result of a close collaboration between Apple’s design teams and the integrated engineering and design team at Foster + Partners.

David Summerfield, Foster + Partners said, “Apple Marina Bay Sands is all about the delicate interplay between transparency and shade. The structure dissolves the boundary between the inside and outside, creating a minimal platform that floats gently in the water, looking out over the bay and the spectacular Singapore skyline.”

Structurally, the dome acts as a hybrid steel and glass shell, where the grid of steel sections support the weight of the glass and shading, and the curved structural glass panels restrain the steel elements laterally and stiffen the overall form against lateral loads. Integrated solar shading devices keep the interior cool. Each of the 114 panels of glass is carefully selected to meet glazing indices as prescribed by BCA Green Mark, Singapore’s own sustainability rating system.

隨著圓頂結(jié)構(gòu)而逐步縮小的多功能同心遮陽(yáng)環(huán)，還可以滿(mǎn)足內(nèi)部空間的吸音需求。同時(shí)，這些圓環(huán)還可以對(duì)日光進(jìn)行漫反射處理，并將其反射到上方的擋板，從而產(chǎn)生神奇的視覺(jué)效果。而從圓頂上端開(kāi)口射入的光柱，還會(huì)使人想起羅馬萬(wàn)神廟的知名場(chǎng)景。

來(lái)自福斯特事務(wù)所的Stefan Behling 則這樣補(bǔ)充道：“這個(gè)圓頂結(jié)構(gòu)似乎是變換無(wú)窮的。其在不同的環(huán)境條件下，會(huì)呈現(xiàn)出差異萬(wàn)千的形態(tài)。這不光是對(duì)蘋(píng)果產(chǎn)品的一種映襯，還是對(duì)自然光照的一種歌頌?！?/p>

此外，新加坡的花園城市概念也在該旗艦店的內(nèi)部得到了很好地體現(xiàn)。建筑師沿著圓環(huán)的外圈，設(shè)置了10 棵樹(shù)木，以提供額外的遮陽(yáng)可能，并對(duì)邊界進(jìn)行一定的柔化處理。建筑師還為其設(shè)置了皮革的座椅，使得其可以為來(lái)訪者提供舒適的休憩體驗(yàn)。

游客們可以從The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands 進(jìn)入這家旗艦店，并會(huì)經(jīng)過(guò)一個(gè)絢麗的弧形石質(zhì)入口，以及一個(gè)45米長(zhǎng)和7.6米寬的大道。游客們?cè)俅┻^(guò)一個(gè)扶梯，就會(huì)從這萬(wàn)花筒般的穿行體驗(yàn)里到達(dá)這個(gè)獨(dú)特的圓頂空間。游客們可以在這里欣賞到獨(dú)特的海岸及城市風(fēng)光。白天，這個(gè)特殊的圓頂可以反射出周邊的水景和天光；而在夜間，其則會(huì)呈現(xiàn)出獨(dú)特的室內(nèi)照明設(shè)計(jì)，并與一旁的新加坡城市天際線(xiàn)遙相呼應(yīng)。

Each of the multifunctional concentric light sunshade rings reduce in size as they progress towards the top of the building, providing acoustic absorption for the store. More importantly, they diffuse and reflect daylight to the baffle above, creating a magical effect and dematerialising the structure. At the top a semi-opaque oculus provides a dramatic shaft of light that travels through the space, reminiscent of the famous Pantheon in Rome.

Stefan Behling, Foster + Partners said, “The dome appears ephemeral. The effect is very calming,and the changing intensity and colour of the light is mesmerising. It is not only a celebration of Apple’s incredible products, but a celebration of light.”

The garden city ideal of Singapore flows from the promenade into the interior spaces, with ten trees placed along the perimeter providing additional shading and soft shadows through the foliage. Set within leather-topped planters, they also provide comfortable places to sit and enjoy the ambiance of the store and the fantastic views of the marina.

The store can be entered through The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands via a beautifully curved stone entrance, flanked by Apple’s signature Avenue display on either side of a 45-metre long and 7.6-metre wide space. This leads directly to a set of dramatic escalators that take visitors on a “kaleidoscopic”journey to the heart of the spectacular domed space. This contrasting transition from the heart of the retail centre to the Apple dome offers the customer a dramatic and exhilarating experience. It culminates with spectacular views across the bay and towards the city. During the day, the dome reflects the colours of the surrounding water and sky, while in the evening the subtle interior lighting provides a warm glow and enhances everyone’s experience of Singapore’s spectacular skyline.
