建筑設計:MARIAGROUP建筑事務所
在贏得美國社區學校原址的新教學樓設計競賽之后,MARIAGROUP 接受委托,在當前環境和未來總體規劃的背景下,設計新的教學樓。
學校的建筑用地位于尼日利亞街,處在兩個既有住宅建筑之間。新樓兼具教職工宿舍和教學樓的功能。
項目為重新思考校園與城市的關系、生活與學習的關系提供了機會,也為在同一建筑中兼顧這兩個功能帶來了挑戰。設計不僅要求新建筑具備自身所需的多種功能,還要為分散在道路兩旁迥然不同的學校既有建筑提供連接。
這棟建筑挑戰了這些矛盾,通過將外立面整合為同一種連續的元素——一系列包裹在整個結構之外的豎向百葉窗,只在兩個位置斷開——一處是在頂部角落展露其上部結構的住宅屬性;另一處則延伸到整個首層的占地空間,為連接兩棟建筑的大庭院走廊提供遮蔽。
教學樓區共有4 層及一層地下室,裙房首層通過百葉窗的遮蔽而與大街和周圍環境分隔開。交通空間和露天教學空間位于建筑的周邊,學生的流動和活動賦予外立面活力。
教學中心裙房的頂層是公共學習區域和綠化操場,是完全對城市開放的,也為教學裙房和住宅塔樓之間提供了一種視覺上的過渡。
因此,外立面成為這些雙重關系的整合器:城市與校園,生活與學習,都包裹在一個單一而通透的外殼之中,回應了這所學校開放的教學理念?!酰ㄍ跣佬?譯)

After winning the competition for the design of the new faculty building on the grounds of the American Community School, MARIAGROUP was commissioned to design the new building in its current context as well as in the context of the future master plan.
Located on Nigeria Street, the building lot sits between 2 existing residential structures.The new Faculty Building serves as both residences for faculty members and classrooms for students.
The project offers an opportunity to rethink the relationship between campus and city, living and learning, and the challenge of designing for both in a single structure.The new building needs to serve not only its own mixed programme, but also to act as a connection between the disparate existing buildings of the school, that are spread on several plots across a street.
The building challenges these dichotomies by the articulation of the fa?ade as a single continuous element, a series of vertical louvres that wrap around the entire structure, only stopping twice; once to reveal on one top corner the residential nature of the upper section, and once extending over the entire footprint of the plot on the Ground Floor, to shelter a large courtyard passage that links the two existing buildings.
The academic block extends over 4 storeys and a basement, creating a podium base that is sheltered from the street and surroundings by the louvres.The circulation spaces and open areas of learning are situated along the perimeter, enlivening the fa?ade with the student flow and movement.
The top of the learning-centre-podium houses common learning areas and landscaped playgrounds,completely open to the city, and creating a visual shift from the academic base towards the residential tower.
Thus the fa?ade becomes the articulator of these dual relationships: City and campus, living and learning, all wrapped in a single porous shell that echoes the open philosophy of learning of the school.□
