On the historic campus of Franklin & Marshall College, the new Winter Visual Arts Building takes shape as a raised pavilion formed by the site’s 200-year old trees, the oldest elements of the campus. A new campus destination for all students, the building’s spaces aim to evoke the creative energy involved in teaching and making art.
The large diameter trees, the oldest elements of the Franklin & Marshall’s 52-acre arboretum campus, were the conceptual generator of the building’s geometry. As a lightweight building, its main floor is lifted into the trees on a porous ground level open to the campus and the adjacent Buchanan Park. The reflections of the hovering building at night glowing in the water of a large reflecting pool add to the special articulation of this place.
The 33,000 sf Winter Visual Arts Building is the center of creative life on campus. The universal language of art enabled by the building’s spaces brings together students from diverse cultures to collaborate on arts projects. On the Ground Floor a Forum and suite of galleries draw in the surrounding community of Lancaster to engage with the College around arts events and exhibitions. Sculpture studios, involving heavy objects, are adjacent to ground floor loading and an open-air sculpture yard. Digital Labs are located below grade due to their need for minimal light and receive a daylight glow from round skylights.
The second-floor studios – for drawing, design, printmaking, painting, woodworking, and cinema - are efficiently organized around a ‘Commons’ gathering space for students which doubles as an informal presentation space. All studios receive natural light through the translucent façade and have an operable viewing window and skylights. Faculty studios and Art History seminar rooms are set on a Mezzanine overlooking the teaching studios, filling the building’s volume while allowing double-height studios of inspiring space.
在富蘭克林與馬歇爾學院(Franklin & Marshall College)歷史悠久的校園中,新落成的溫特爾視覺藝術大樓(Winter Visual Arts Building)有如一座由周遭 200 年老樹簇擁而成的架高亭子。這個建築空間旨在激發教學和藝術創作中的創意,可為全校學生提供一個校園新地點。
這些樹圍寬廣的樹木是富蘭克林與馬歇爾學院占地 52 英畝的蔥鬱校園中最古老的元素,也是建築外型的設計概念來源。為符合輕巧的概念,以朝向校園和毗鄰的布坎南公園開口的穿透式地面樓層,將主樓層架高至與枝葉齊高。在夜裡,架高的建築倒映在一片大型水池中閃閃發亮,使得這個地方更顯特別。
佔地 33,000 平方英尺的溫特爾視覺藝術大樓是校園的創意生活中心,來自不同文化背景的學生匯集在這裡,透過將藝術這個共通語言共同合作藝術創作。一樓的廣場和展覽室可吸引周圍的蘭卡斯特居民參與學院的藝術活動和展覽。會使用大型物件的雕塑室與一樓和露天雕塑院相鄰。由於所需的自然光最少,數位實驗室位於地面下,透過圓形天窗引入日光。
創作素描、設計、版畫、繪畫、木作以及電影院的三樓工作室,很有效率地圍繞著一處學生公共集會空間排列,該空間也可作為非正式展場使用。所有工作室都可透過半透明的牆面接收自然光,也都設有活動式觀景窗和天窗。教師工作室和藝術史研究室位於夾層,俯瞰著教學工作室,不僅填補了建築物的空間,又創造了雙倍挑高的創意工作室。
