城市规划理念

Urban planning concept

该遗址位于一个不寻常的位置，融合了城市和湖泊的环境。将现有的世贸组织建筑物纳入湖滨木园是该项目的一个关键决定因素。新建筑补充和完成了整个城市环境与其现有的建筑整体。它对场地南部的拥挤条件作出反应，同时结合现有的必要和功能限制，与旧建筑保持相互尊重的距离，并在两个建筑之间建立一个高质量的户外区域。一幅平衡、均衡的整体画面呈现出来，新旧对话丰富了这幅画面。

The site is situated in an unusual location mixing both city and lake surroundings. The lakeside wooden park incorporating the existing group of WTO buildings is a key determining factor in the project. The new building complements and completes the overall urban setting with its existing building ensemble. It responds to the cramped conditions in the southern part of the site while integrating the existing necessary and functional constraints.  It maintains a respectful distance from the old buildings and creates a high-quality outdoor area between the two structures. A balanced, well-proportioned overall picture presents itself, which is enriched by a dialogue between old and new.

Architectural concept

扩建区的面积仅限于前停车场，这意味着该地区现有的树木可以保持原状，不需要为建造而封存更多的区域。游客从大门穿过老建筑，穿过一座宽敞的人行桥，直接进入扩建区的主大厅。从这里开始，新大楼的所有区域都可以进入。新建筑基本上分为两部分-底层的基础结构和悬挂在上面的玻璃结构。由于这一划分，实际尺寸似乎较小，并被有趣地纳入公园区域。建筑外观的定义是公开和透明。

The dimensions of the extension are limited to the former car park, meaning the existing trees on the site could remain in place and no additional areas had to be sealed off for construction. Visitors are led from the main gate through the old building, over a spacious footbridge and directly into the main lobby in the extension. From here, all areas of the new building can be accessed. The new building is essentially divided into two sections – the base structure at ground level and the glass structure suspended above. Thanks to this division, the actual dimensions appear smaller and are playfully incorporated into the park area. The building appearance is defined by openness and transparency.

这个地界的根据地有大量的餐饮设施.该基础结构的屋顶设计为一个可接近的木制甲板，欢迎游客使用它作为一个观景台。前面的露台使餐厅朝着湖边延伸。漂浮的，水晶的体积，上面有行政和办公区域。建筑物内区域的分配为非正式会议和对话创造了空间。办公楼层提供高度灵活的组织结构。许多办公室组织是可能的-从传统的单一办公室到组合区域和开放式工作空间。立面采用模块化设计，支持建筑物所需的灵活性。分隔墙可以在建筑方案内自由放置。所有工作站都有充足的日光供应和与户外愉快的连接。建筑的核心和基础设施位于建筑的中心，使游客很容易找到他们的路。增加螺旋楼梯的飞行有助于促进楼层之间的内部沟通。

The earth-bound base zone is home to mass catering facilities. The roof of the base structure is designed as an accessible wooden deck, welcoming visitors to use it as a viewing platform. A terrace at the front expands the restaurant towards the lake. The floating, crystalline volume above houses the administration and office areas. The allocation of areas within the building creates spaces for informal meetings and conversations. The office floors offer high flexibly organization. Many office organizations are possible – from classical single offices to combined areas and open-plan workspaces. The façade has a modular design and supports the required flexibility of the building. Dividing walls can be positioned freely within the building plan. All workstations have an ample supply of daylight and pleasant links to the outdoors. The building core and infrastructural facilities are located in the center of the building, thus making it easy for visitors to find their way around. Additional flights of spiral stairs help to promote internal communication between floors.

产品描述。由于玻璃结构-设计成双层立面，也允许自然通风-建筑的实际尺寸显得更小，并被有趣地融入了公园区域。

Product Description.Thanks to the glass structure - designed as a double façade, which also allows for natural ventilation - the actual dimensions of the building appear smaller and are playfully incorporated into the park area.

其理念是通过清晰灵活的建筑设计，达到最高的透明度和开放性，从而创造出一种明亮和永恒的现代外观。

The idea was to reach the highest levels of transparency and openness through a clear and flexible building design, which creates a bright and timelessly modern appearance.
