原名称:‘Heart of the District’ Competition Entry
设计单位:ZA Architects
位置:美国纽约
| ZA在这个获二等奖的国际竞赛项目中发展了一种酒店空间组织的新原则。设计师将人们的活动融入当地的城市生活中去,取代了过去酒店将人与所在环境分隔开的做法。由于这个原因,他们并未设计一个单独的酒店建筑,而是建议将酒店房间置于现有建筑之内,例如周边的办公建筑与住宅中,并通过悬挂于街区上的节点相互联系。为了引入当地生活,我们创造出一种半是街道半是建筑的空间,这个充满生机的悬浮体量内可以进行一些公共活动,不仅可以吸引并服务于酒店客户,还会吸引一些好奇的观光客和其他城市居民。它将会激发酒店周边更生动的公共活动,成为社区的中心。酒店不包含私人服务,所有的设施包括洗衣房、餐厅、美发、健身等都同时服务于酒店住客和当地居民。这一系列设施都早就存在于社区内,比如剧院、体育馆、餐厅等等,当地生活的内核会被植入这些设施的使用中。住客会收到一张一卡通,可以免费使用上述提到的各类公共设施。所有的人流都通过社区之心交汇,游客可以直接通过街上的坡道和电梯进入,建筑的功能包括:游戏场、商店、展览空间、咖啡厅、酒吧、酒店接待,休闲区、小影院、图书馆、会议室等。从内部看上去建筑提供了许多小观景窗,可以观赏车流和城市风光等。社区之心的主要功能就是把人们引进来,在这个狭窄的空间中给平常忙忙碌碌的人们碰面和交流的机会。在社区之心中人们会通过挂在现有建筑外部的走廊到达分散的酒店房间,对于酒店房间的设置,比如设于办公楼,住客可以从小圆窗瞥见员工的日常工作,也可能直接向旧建筑中开门窗。总之,住客在享受舒适的情况下同时可以就近感受当地的生活方式,此外,新的公共中心将会对当地设施的改善具有促进作用,从而吸引更多居民、游客和资金。并非不可能变成纽约的形象标识之一。 |
| In their second prize winning design in the international competition, ZA Architects aimed at developing a few new principles of hotel organization. Instead of separating visitors from the environment, the architects intends to embed peoples’ lives in local city life. For this reason, there is no hotel building itself, instead they propose hotel rooms placed in existing buildings (offices, residential) connected with web of hung pathways. To inhale life in this place we are creating a new type of space – half street/half building, it is a vibrant suspended volume enclosing a number of public activities which will attract and serve not only locals and hotel visitors, but also other curious tourists and city inhabitants. It will inspire vivid public life around the hotel. It is a heart of the district.Hotel doesn’t have its private services. All facilities (laundries, restaurants, hairdressers, gyms, etc.) are used by hotel visitors and locals mutually. There are a range of entities already on the street – as theatre, gym, trattoria,etc. which will be used along with new, located inside heart, as part of the hotel services. Hotel visitors are provided with “all inclusive” card, which allow to use all aforesaid functions for free.All communications and people streams conduct through the heart. In which visitors can get via moving ramps and elevators right from the street. Heart itself contains: playground, shop, exhibition space, café, bar, hotel reception, lounge zone, small cinema, library, conference hall. From the inside this volume gives a lot of interesting viewpoints that allows to peek on someones window, or observe the scenery of the street traffic, cityscape and so on. Main function of the heart is to draw folks in and mix, acquaint them inside its tight spaces, while they busy with varied activities. From the heart levels visitors are able to get to the pathways hung to the existing building facades, which lead to hotel rooms scattered on the old buildings. From the rooms mounted, for instance in the office block, it is possible to take a glance on the everyday life of it workers through the small circular windows in the partition. It is also possible to make a door and way out of the room through existing building.Thus, visitors are brought very close to the natives, yet without losing the comfort. Besides, new public hub going to improve quality of life in this local city area, attracting more habitats, tourists and eventually – money. It is not unlikely that it is can become one of the NY iconic objects. |
