Sandi Simon Center For Dance at Chapman University, CA, USA

美國加利福尼亞州 查普曼大學桑迪西蒙舞蹈中心

Lorcan O’Herlihy Architects

The Sandi Simon Center for Dance is an expansive new education and performing arts center at Chapman University that redefines a former orange packing house. Landmarked by the National Register of Historic Places, LOHA’s adaptive reuse strategy preserves the exterior identity while opening the interior structure with a calculated cut through the original floor that allows for a reorganization into three levels and forms a new circulation through the space.

 

The Dance Center houses five studios for dance instruction, a performance studio that provides space for small concerts and master classes, two classrooms, a training room, and faculty offices. It addresses not only the studio and classroom needs of the dance program, but also provides spaces for students to socially engage.

 

桑迪西蒙舞蹈中心是查普曼大學新建的一個大型教育和表演藝術中心,重新詮釋了以前的橙色包裝廠。該建築被國家列為歷史遺跡建築,因此 LOHA 使用活化建築的計劃保留了外部特徵,同時通過對原始樓層進行計算,分割內部結構,使其分為三個層次,並在空間中形成新的循環。

 

舞蹈中心設有五個舞蹈教學工作室、一個為小型音樂會和大師班提供空間的表演工作室、兩間教室、一間培訓室和教師辦公室。它不僅滿足了舞蹈課程所需要的工作室和教室的需求,還為學生提供可以社交的空間。

Originally built as a two-story headquarters for the Santiago Orange Growers Association in 1918, the post and beam heavy timber frame building is representative of the industrial vernacular style of its time. Villa Park Orchards Association took over the building in the late 1960s to expand its operations. Chapman University’s purchase of the building signifies a dedication to the preservation of this local historic landmark.

 

LOHA’s adaptive reuse strategy required precise planning and innovative strategies to transform the former orange packing house, from a one-story warehouse space with an unused, uninhabitable basement, into a multi-level Center for Dance. This process included celebrating unique elements of the existing building, utilizing the original wood flooring as a material for the new design, and incorporating new structural elements.


該案最初是 1918 年為聖地亞哥橘子種植協會建造的兩層樓總部,這棟柱樑重型木結構建築為當時工業鄉土風格的代表。維拉公園果園協會在 20 世紀 60 年代末接管了這座建築以擴大其業務。查普曼大學購買該建築在於致力保護這一當地歷史地標。

 

LOHA 的活性建築計劃需要精確的規劃和創新的策略,將單層橘色包裝廠改造成多層的舞蹈中心,它有一間未使用過且無法居住的地下室。這一過程包括讚揚建築的獨特元素,利用原來的木地板作為新設計的其中一個材料,並融入新的結構元素。

The design approach of opening the former floor of the 1918 orange packing building allows light to permeate from the historic sawtooth roof—with its north-facing clerestory windows--to all levels of the Dance Center. This innovative strategy preserves the exterior identity of the culturally and historically significant shell, while amplifying the beautiful features of the interior.

 

Polycarbonate, selected for its reflectivity and translucency, layers walls and openings in ways that allow the architecture to reflect the ideas of movement and the ephemeral nature of performance embodied in the program.

 

光線從歷史悠久的鋸齒形屋頂及朝北的天窗滲透到舞蹈中心的各個樓層,就像與 1918 年的橘色包裝廠取得了某種聯繫。這一創新策略保留了具有文化和歷史意義的建築外觀,同時也增強了內部結構的美麗。


聚碳酸酯因其反射率和半透明性而被選擇作為材料之一,建築內部的分層牆壁和隔間入口反映出動態的理念和表演的短暫性。

Enormous historic trusses were left exposed and rendered at once lofty by the view from the lowest level and tangible from the proximity to them at the mezzanine; and historic, operable clerestory windows have been retrofit with actuators to open and expel heat when triggered by the mechanical system.


巨大的、充滿年代感的桁架裸露著,從最低的樓層觀看會立即發現它們的巨大,即使從靠近的夾層看去也是非常有存在感的。歷史悠久的可操作式天窗,經過改造並配備了執行器,可觸發機械系統來打開並散熱。

The three levels allow for student performances, studios, classrooms, and study spaces within the vibrant circulation and encourages interactions and conversations to spill out of the studios into the atrium between classes, into the courtyard for warm up, yoga, social space, and into the larger campus.


這三個層次讓學生的表演、工作室、教室和學習空間處於一個充滿活力的循環之中,人們的對話與互動會一路從工作室延伸到課間的中庭,再進入庭院、瑜伽室、社交空間,並進入更大的校園。
