漂浮在街道上方的校园综合体

比利时The Cube校园综合体

来自建筑事务所的描述：Forum大楼位于校园的核心部分，虽然作为Kortrijk Xpo的呼应体系，校园的规划缺乏对周边的环境树立起明晰的形象。但是校园又经过了一系列的限定，但这些限定要素都并非物理形态中的与外部环境隔绝，而是构成了以行人为优先考虑的空间环境。项目场地的开发目的是提升校园与Xpo之间的通达性，从而增加校园沿街一侧的活力，并且将校园与周围环境整合在一起。

Text description provided by the architects. The Forum building is the heart of the campus. The campus lacked a decisive image towards its surroundings, as a counterpart to Kortrijk Xpo. At the same time, the campus is defined, but not physically closed off from its environment. This results in an approachable and accessible campus for pedestrians. The aim of the development of the site is to increase the accessibility between Xpo and Campus, to expand the dynamics of the school to the street side and to integrate the campus in its surroundings.

建筑的一大特征便是校园和相邻场地之间的高差，因此场地的开发不应当只在建筑层面中进行，还应该结合城市开发层面。因此，场地的功能组织也在两个方面进行，首先是地面层、也是街道层的商业空间，另一个便是二层、也是校园层的学校功能。建筑师环绕着新建筑体量扩大了校园区域，创建了一座漂浮状平台。这个平台在公共与半公共室外空间、商业与校园功能之间形成了清晰而合理地分隔。

A characteristic of the building is de height difference between the campus and the adjacent site. The development of the plot should therefore not only take place on an architectural level, but also on an urban development level. The organization of the functions on the site therefore takes place on two levels: the commercial spaces on the ground floor (street level) and the school functions on the 2 floors (campus level). By literally extending the campus platform around the new building volume, a floating platform is created. The platform forms a clear and logical separation between public and semi-public (outdoor) spaces, between retail and school functions.

浮动平台是场地的重要元素，其构建、定义，并且组织了校园人流。一层空间形成的广场也能够用作各项活动。平台上的大开口和外部楼梯将室外区域和多功能广场连接起来，同时将人们引导向校园。而在设计中，这种多功能空间和专业化厨房则成为了重要的连接纽带。

The floating platform serves as a catalyst for the whole site. It structures, defines and organizes the pedestrian flows on the campus. The square, created on the first floor, can be used as a terrace for the polyvalent space as well as for other activities. Large holes in the floating platform and a wide external staircase connect the covered outdoor area with the multifunctional square and lead the pedestrians to the school campus. This multipurpose space with professional kitchen is therefore a vital link in the design.

该项目的特征由建筑的智能结构体系所支撑。最初的目的是构件大型开放且灵活的建筑空间。在整个环境之中，建筑就如同一座开放的堆叠体量，并且通过支柱和混凝土楼板所限定。一层的上部楼板和屋顶面板由桁架体系所支撑，在桁架之间悬挂有钢筋混凝土横梁体量，而这些体量则由双层面板构成。在混凝土核心筒之中设置有电梯、楼梯，以及通风井，这保证了建筑的稳定性。

Characteristic and decisive for the project is the intelligent supporting structure of the building. The starting point was to create a building with large, open and flexible classifiable spaces. Within this context the building is conceived as a literal stacking of open spaces, defined by horizontal concrete slabs that are separated by columns. The floor slab above the first floor and the roof slab are supported and carried by a system of steel trusses. A duplex floor in the form of a beam-shaped volume in reinforced concrete is suspended on the inside between the trusses. A central concrete core with elevators, stairs and shafts guarantees the stability of the building.
