香港理工大学的校园在过去50年里发展了其城市结构，大学的许多学院被安置在视觉上连贯而又非常不同的建筑物中。JCIT创造了一个新的城市空间，丰富了大学生活的多样性，表达了一个面向未来的机构的活力。

The Hong Kong Polytechnic University campus has developed its urban fabric over the last 50 years with the university’s many faculties housed in visually coherent, yet very different buildings. The JCIT creates a new urban space that enriches the diversity of university life and expresses the dynamism of an institution looking to the future.

JCIT位于大学校园东北端的一个狭窄而不规则的地方(南边是大学的足球场，北边是漆咸道/九龙走廊高速公路交汇处)，与校园中心相连；鼓励大学各部门和学校制定多学科倡议，并与社区、政府、工业界、非政府组织和学术界合作。

Located on a narrow, irregular site at the northeastern tip of the university campus (bordered by the university’s football ground to the south, and the Chatham Road/ Kowloon Corridor motorway interchange to the north), the JCIT is connected to the heart of the campus; encouraging the university’s various faculties and schools to develop multidisciplinary initiatives and engagement with the community, government, industry, NGO’s and academia.

JCIT设计将塔/讲台的典型类型分解为更流畅的组合。内部和外部庭院创造了非正式的空间，以会面和互动，补充大型展览论坛，工作室，剧院和娱乐设施。

The JCIT design dissolves the typical typology of the tower/podium into a more fluid composition. Interior and exterior courtyards create informal spaces to meet and interact, complementing the large exhibition forums, studios, theatre and recreational facilities.

塔楼的设计促进了一个多学科的环境，将设计学院内的各种项目联系起来；建立一种集体研究文化，在这种文化中，许多贡献和创新可以相互补充。

The tower’s design promotes a multidisciplinary environment by connecting the variety of programs within the School of Design; establishing a collective research culture where many contributions and innovations can feed off each other.

学生、工作人员和参观者在学校内通过15个级别的工作室、工作坊、实验室、展览和活动区域。室内玻璃和空洞带来了透明度和连通性，而流通路线和公共空间已经安排，以鼓励许多学习集群和设计学科之间的互动。

Students, staff and visitors move through 15 levels of studios, workshops, labs, exhibition and event areas within the school. Interior glazing and voids bring transparency and connectivity, while circulation routes and communal spaces have been arranged to encourage interaction between the many learning clusters and design disciplines.
