架构师提供的文本描述。将一座建筑插入历史街区的艺术意味着与那些已经在那里的人进行开放的、实际的对话。建筑在现存的建筑上也提供了一个更广泛的改造项目的机会，一个空间的回收。Jér me Seydoux PATH基金会的新总部出人意料地出现了，一卷弯弯曲曲的书漂浮在它所在的庭院中央，仅靠几个支撑。在地面上，有一棵桦树，这是一座坐落在这座城市浓密的矿物环境中的花卉岛屿。

Text description provided by the architects. The art of inserting a building into an historical city block means engaging in an open, physical dialogue with those already there. Building onto an extant structure also presents an opportunity for a more widespread renovation project, a reclaiming of space. The new headquarters of the Fondation Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé is an unexpected presence, a curved volume one glimpses floating in the middle of the courtyard in which it sits, anchored on just a few supports. On the ground, there is a stand of birch trees, a floral island set in the dense mineral context of the city.

Jer me Seydoux PATH基金会是一个致力于保护PATHé遗产和促进电影艺术的组织。它的新总部[位于十三区的一个街区的中心，19世纪中叶的一家旧剧院-在20世纪中期变成了一家电影院(巴黎最早的剧院之一)，然后在20世纪60年代又发生了根本性的变化)。

The Fondation Jerôme Seydoux-Pathé is an organization dedicated to the preservation of Pathé’s heritage, and to the promotion of the cinematographic art. Its new headquarters [sits at the centre of a block in the XIII arrondissement, where an old mid-19th century theatre - transformed into a cinema (one of the first ones in Paris) in the mid-1900s and then radically transformed again in the 1960s - once stood].

新大楼将存放PATHé的档案、一些(临时展览和永久藏品的空间)(包括一个70个座位的放映室)和基金会的办公室。

The new buildingwill house Pathé’s archives, some (spaces for temporary exhibitions as well as for the permanent collection) (including a 70-seat screening room), and the offices of the Foundation.

该项目呼吁拆除现有的两座建筑物，以创造一个有机的“生物”，更好地回应现场的限制。[想法是响应基金会所要求的功能和代表性方案，同时提高新建筑周围空间的质量]由于其历史和艺术价值，戈贝林大道上的外墙已得到修复和保存。它以奥古斯特·罗丹的雕塑装饰，不仅是一个历史地标，也是戈比林地区的标志性建筑。

The project called for the demolition of the two existing buildings to create an organic “creature” that better responds to the restrictions of the site. [The idea was to respond to the functional and representative programme requested by the Fondation, while at the same time increasing the quality of the space surrounding the new building] The façade on the avenue des Gobelins has been restored and preserved, due to its historical and artistic value. Decorated with sculptures by [a young] Auguste Rodin, it is not only a historical landmark, but also an iconic building for the Gobelins area.

就在立面后面的一座新的透明建筑，作为基金会的公众通道。它看起来像一个温室，透过中央法院第二层透明的一层楼，可以看到室内花园的景色，中央法院是该项目的主要功能所在。

A new transparent building just behind the façade functions as the foundation’s public access. Looking like a greenhouse, it offers a view on the interior garden through the transparent ground floor of a second building in the central court that houses the project’s main functions.

这座建筑的独特设计是由现场的主要限制和要求决定的。在尊重与周围建筑物的距离的同时，该建筑改善了邻居获得自然光和空气的机会。通过减少足迹，该项目为站点后面的花园创造了空间。

The peculiar design of this building is determined by the site’s major limits and requirements. While respecting the distances with the surrounding buildings, the building improves the neighbour’s access to natural light and air. By reducing the footprint, the project creates space for a garden in the back of the site.

建筑的上部由玻璃制成，为地基的办公空间提供了天然的光线。

The upper part of the building is made of glass, providing natural light for the office spaces of the Foundation.

从街道上看，这座建筑只有在修复后的外墙上才能感觉到，就像白天有一种谨慎的存在一样，而在夜晚，它会柔和地发光。

From the street the building is only perceived through the and over the restored façade like a discreet presence during the daytime, while it will be softly glowing at night.
