Mep & Fp: van Zelm Engineers 在外观设计上体现了看似矛盾的任务：既要引人注意同时又不影响建筑的原始环境。坐落在一个倾斜的景观的底部，另一端的一个高尔夫球场的森林和湿地之间，建筑呈现出一个低和起伏的轮廓。16500平方英尺的结构有植被的屋顶，周围植物的颜色，帮助它与景观–从某些角度进一步协调几乎消失。
从校园，国道，有节奏的外观可能怀有任何可能出现的功能，也许是一个博物馆，教室或实验室。它的房子，其实，坚实的基础设施：生物质燃烧的可持续收获木片，加热Hotchkiss学校与超过600名居民和85幢建筑物，总1200000平方英尺。由国际气候变化专门委员会指定为碳中性燃料的副产品，本地采购的木片可持续管理的森林，他们每年更换大约15万加仑的进口燃料油整体切割的排放量，最显着的二氧化硫超过90 ％。废物收集灰作为肥料的学生往往菜园。生物质设施的一个组成部分，学校的承诺，到2020年成为一个碳中性的校园。
Centerbrook建筑师，由合作伙伴杰斐逊领导的。 B.赖利，美国建筑师协会会员，确定客户端，基础设施不沉闷，室内还是室外。。该炉的住宅设计做的双重任务作为一个活动的课堂。它揭示了生态友好型技术和可持续建筑材料对学生和社区团体旅游。沿夹层走道，可俯瞰，环航锅炉房，一个非正式的展品解释图表和地图，而一系列的交互式计算机控制台跟踪性能指标。
这次展览还突出了各种木制品，当地丰富的和可再生的建筑材料，用于整个取景，桁架，栏杆，单板，实木复合板。森林管理委员会认证的木材原木材可行时使用，例如，栏杆收获，研磨，干燥窑，和当地制成。该建筑的桁架胶合层积材，优化结构这种可再生资源的值。集成材具有减体现能量比钢筋混凝土或钢，可以使用更长的时间跨度，更重的负荷，和复杂的形状。外面，游客可以跟随一个的性质路径，得到屋顶绿化的意见，吸收和过滤雨水径流;他们也可以观察到雨水花园，bioswales，和附近的湿地。
LEED认证的建筑被提名为保护功能，包括可再生能源，胶合木结构体系，节水管道装置，利用当地的材料与再生含量高;丰富的日光内和高效的机械系统，照明和外墙。
原文：The exterior design embodies seemingly contradictory missions: creating an arresting presence to beckon visitors, while simultaneously not upstaging the building’s pristine environs at the periphery of an independent school’s campus. Sited at the bottom of a sloping landscape, between woods and wetlands on one side and a golf course on the other, the building presents a low and undulating profile. The 16,500-square-foot structure is capped by a vegetated roof that is the color of surrounding flora, helping it harmonize further with the landscape – almost disappearing from some vantage points.Viewed from the campus, across a state road, the rhythmic fa?ade might harbor any number of likely functions, perhaps a museum, classroom, or laboratory. It houses, in fact, gritty infrastructure: a biomass facility that burns sustainably harvested woodchips to heat the Hotchkiss School with its more than 600 residents and 85 buildings that total 1.2 million square feet. Designated a carbon neutral fuel by the International Panel on Climate Change, the locally sourced wood chips are the byproduct of sustainably managed forests; they replace some 150,000 gallons of imported fuel oil per year, cutting emissions overall, most dramatically sulfur dioxide by more than 90 percent. Waste ash is collected for use as fertilizer for vegetable gardens tended by the students. The biomass facility is an integral part of the school’s commitment to becoming a carbon-neutral campus by 2020.Centerbrook Architects, led by Partner Jefferson. B. Riley, FAIA, determined with the client that infrastructure need not be dreary, inside or out. This furnace dwelling was designed to do double duty as a living classroom. It exposes ecologically friendly technologies and sustainable construction materials to touring students and community groups. Along the mezzanine walkway, which overlooks and circumnavigates the boiler room, an informal exhibit displays explanatory charts and maps, while a series of interactive computer consoles track performance metrics.The exhibit also highlights various wood products, locally abundant and renewable building materials that were used throughout for framing, trusses, railings, veneer, and wood composite boards. Forest Stewardship Council certified wood or indigenous timber was used whenever feasible; for example, the railings were harvested, milled, kiln-dried, and fabricated locally. The building’s trusses are glue-laminated timber, which optimizes the structural values of this renewable resource. Glulam has less embodied energy than reinforced concrete or steel and can be used for much longer spans, heavier loads, and complex shapes. Outside, visitors can follow a nature path that affords views of the green roof, which absorbs and filters rainwater runoff; they also can observe a rain garden, bioswales, and nearby wetlands.The building is slated for LEED certification for conservation features that include a renewable, laminated wood structural system; water-conserving plumbing fixtures; use of local materials with a high recycled content; an abundance of daylight inside; and highly efficient mechanical systems, lighting, and exterior skin.
