Construction has been completed on the Tianjin Binhai Exploratorium, a 33,000-square-meter (355,200-square-foot) museum structure in Tianjin, China. The Exploratorium will showcase artifacts from Tianjin’s industrial past through large-scale contemporary technology, including spectacular rockets for space research. The project is part of the city’s Binhai Cultural Center and contains facilities for cultural events and exhibitions as well as galleries, offices, and restaurant and retail spaces. Bernard Tschumi Architects designed the Exploratorium to relate to the rich industrial history of the area, the site of high-volume manufacturing and research. A series of large-scale cones creates major rooms throughout the museum. The central cone, lit from above, connects all three levels of the Exploratorium. A spiralling ramp ascends to the top level, offering an unusual spatial experience of the modern vertical city by reinterpreting an ancient industrial typology. The roof is accessible to visitors and acts as a promenade with striking views over the surrounding city. The focal point of the exhibition complex is the grand lobby or cone that provides access to all public parts of the program. This immense cone—almost double the height of the Guggenheim Museum—connects to all surrounding spaces and allows visitors to spiral through the large exhibition halls stacked on each end of the building, past view portholes and lightwells that give each hall an individual character and configuration. Grand, triple-height spaces define the main circulation, while a constellation of lights and circular lightwells give the space an other-worldly feel. The perforated aluminium facade gives a unified presence to the building, despite its large size and the disparate elements of the program. The cones provide even, natural light to gallery spaces and reduce the energy loads required for artificial lighting. Their tapered forms also concentrate warm air, which can then be channelled out of the building in summer or back into the galleries in winter. Glazing surfaces are minimized except when desired for program. The perforated metal panels of the facade help reduce heat gain. The central, large atrium acts as a solar chimney, drawing up hot air and replacing it with cool air from below in a constant airstream.
座落於中國天津(Tianjin, China),占地 33,000 平方公尺(355,200 平方英尺)的天津濱海文化中心探索館已於日前竣工。此一探索館將以大規模現代科技展出天津工業歷史文物,包含令人驚豔的太空研究火箭。探索館是天津濱海文化中心的其中一個場館,室內擁有文化活動與展覽設施、展覽空間、辦公室、餐廳和商店。伯納德.屈米建築師事務所(Bernard Tschumi Architects)的設計動機是希望藉由這座集聚生產與研究機構的探索中心,連結基地過往豐富的工業歷史。館內主要空間為其多座造型錐體,而從中央圓錐天井灑下的自然光線連結了室內三個樓層。通往頂層的螺旋式坡道重新詮釋舊時代工業象徵,為現代垂直城市賦予別具以往的空間體驗。屋頂層開放遊客進入並可作為長廊在此享受周遭壯麗的城市景觀。探索館的核心大廳相當宏偉,中央錐體造型可通往各個公共領域。本案巨大的中央錐體近乎古根漢博物館(Guggenheim Museum)的兩倍高,並連接至周圍所有空間,遊客可以隨著螺旋坡道向上環繞,通往座落在建築物兩端的大型展廳,途中經過的舷窗與採光天井為每一個展廳賦予不同個性和造型。宏偉的三重空間高度定義了主要循環動線,如同繁星的帶狀光源和環形採光天井,為此帶來彷彿置身另一宇宙的錯覺。盡管建築體積龐大,且涵蓋範圍互異多元,藉由漆面穿孔鋁板包覆皮層仍為建築外觀賦予一致性。錐體造型為展覽空間提供均勻自然光線,並減少人工照明所需耗能。錐狀造型也能發揮特性集中空氣暖流,不僅在夏季時能將氣流導出建築物,也能在冬季時導入展示空間。除非展覽節目需要,廳內盡量減少採用玻璃表面,因為穿孔金屬板立面有助於減少吸熱。中央大型中庭則具備太陽能煙囪的功能,在恆定氣流中可吸納熱空氣,讓來自底層的冷空氣予以取代。
