架构师提供的文本描述。哇史塔。位于新泻市中央的霍里努基，这是一个城市中心逐渐让位给郊区的地区。附近主干道上的风景主要是大型商业和零售建筑及其配套标志。

Text description provided by the architects. Wow! Sta. is situated in Horinouchi, in the Central Ward of Niigata City - an area where the city center gradually begins to give way to the suburbs. The scenery lining the nearby main road is dominated by large commercial and retail buildings and their accompanying signage.

从新泻站向外扩张的企业、房屋和多层公寓构成了这一典型的市中心区域。

The businesses, houses and multilevel apartments that sprawl out from Niigata Station constitute this typical inner-city area.

距离主干道只有一条街，有着耀眼的灯光和喧闹的交通，我们发现这是一个令人惊讶的平静地区，甚至连街灯都没有点亮。

Located just one street back from the main road with its dazzling lights and the din of the traffic, we find an area that is surprisingly calm, unlit by even street lights.

我们的网站将这两个截然不同的环境一分为二，在这个地区，关于节奏、时间、规模和氛围的规则没有明确规定。为了给这种混乱局面带来一些秩序，并在这些截然不同的环境之间架起一座桥梁，为该地区注入活力，我们希望这个项目体现以下两个明显的特点：

Our site bisects these two vastly different environs, in an area where rules concerning pace and time, scale and ambiance are not clearly defined. In order to bring some order to this disarray, and to inject life into the area while building a bridge between these contrasting environments, we wanted this project to embody the following two apparent features:

第一，该地区的包容性，及其与之相关的地方意识。第二，该地区对外界的吸引力，以及与其相关的郊区可及性和公共空间。

First, the inclusive nature of the area, with its associated sense of locality. And second, the attractive nature of the area to outsiders, with its associated suburban accessibility and common spaces.

该项目的实现是一个多用途的综合体，涉及到土地的选择、规划、建设、管理，并从两者之间的一个有利的角度重新思考与城市和郊区项目有关的典型问题。

The realization of this project, a multipurpose complex, entailed land selection, programming, construction, management, rethinking the typical problems associated with both urban and suburban projects from a vantage point somewhere between the two.

三层建筑采用钢框架，采用圆形钢筋支撑，一楼由一家餐厅占据，该餐厅向公园一样的户外就餐区蔓延。二楼由办公室空间组成，周围是从下面花园升起的树木。在这个区域内有一个大的中央桌子，有八个座位-不仅有利于办公室工作，而且也有利于不太正式的聚会。三楼有一个多用途的出租空间，包括厨房和浴室，开放到一个室外区域。

The three story building is steel-framed, employing round steel bar bracing.The first floor is occupied by a restaurant, which spills out into a park-like outdoor dining area. The second floor comprises office space, enclosed by trees rising up from the garden below. Within this area is a large central table seating eight - conducive not only to office work but also less formal gatherings. The third floor houses a multipurpose rental space incorporating a kitchen and bathroom, which opens onto an outdoor area.

所有这些区域的功能各不相同，都有一条横跨三层楼的小径。通过这条路，你可以在购物区漫步，安全地被建筑物包围，但仍然可以在触摸距离内通过周围的树叶享受光线的过滤。

All these areas with their varying functions are linked by a path spanning the three floors. Via this path, one can wander the building as one wanders a shopping district, safely enclosed by the building but still able to enjoy the light filtering through the surrounding foliage within touching distance.

哇史塔。是自己的小城镇，自己的小公园，还有自己的鹅卵石小巷，还有随从的角落和裂缝。人们可以看到、听到和全心全意地观察那些内外的人的活动。

Wow! Sta. is its own small integrated town, its own small park, and its own cobblestone alley with its attendant nooks and crannies. The activity of those within and without can be seen, heard and wholeheartedly observed.

而不是仅仅是一座坚固的建筑，这是我们的希望，哇！史塔。将成为一个环境，新的想法将产生，以参与和振兴当地社区。

Rather than just a staid building, it's our hope that Wow! Sta. will become an environment from which new ideas will spring forth to involve and invigorate the local community.

当夜幕降临，灯光从立面的木质百叶窗间闪过时，当孩子们指向并凝视着灯光时，当汤的气味从餐厅飘出时，当声音从上面和下面的地板回荡在花园里时。当所有这些日常刺激混合在一起来填充一个人的感官时，你就能感觉到这个项目的有效性，更重要的是它的潜力。

When evening falls and light flickers out from between the facade's wooden louvers, when children point and gaze up at the lights, when the smell of soup wafts up from the restaurant, and when voices echo through the garden from the floors above and below. When all these everyday stimuli intermingle to fill one's senses, one can get a sense of the effectiveness, and more so the potential, of this project.
