Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture is proud to announce that they have won two 2015 Civic Trust awards for their projects FKI Tower and Waldorf Astoria Beijing. Each project was the only winning project from their country of origin: FKI Tower was the only winning entry from Korea, and Waldorf Astoria Beijing was the only winning project in China.
AS+GG建筑设计事务所非常自豪地宣布:其设计的FKI大厦和北京华尔道夫酒店两个项目分别荣获2015城市信托奖,同时这两个项目都是其所在国的唯一获奖项目,即FKI大厦是韩国的唯一获奖项目,而华尔道夫酒店是中国的。
Based in the UK, the Civic Trust Awards were established in 1959, making it the first recognized awards in Europe to be given to architecture, design, planning, landscape, and public art. Awards are given to projects that demonstrate high-quality architecture or design, have demonstrated sustainability, are accessible to all users, and have made a positive cultural, social, or economic contribution to the local community.
城市信托奖于1959年在英国设立,成为欧洲首个公认的建筑、设计、规划、景观设计和公共艺术的奖项。获得本奖的项目必须证明其具备优质的建筑或设计、可持续性的、令所有人受益,对当地社区的社会、文化或经济发展做出积极贡献。
“We are honored to have won Civic Trust Awards for our first two completed buildings,” said AS+GG Partners Adrian Smith, Gordon Gill, and Robert Forest. “The Civic Trust Awards program shares our firm’s goal that quality design should encourage positive community and environmental impact. It is thrilling to be recognized for two projects that promote the power of precise, high-performance, contextually appropriate architecture.”
“我司首先完成的两栋建筑都荣获了城市信托奖,对此我们感到十分荣幸”,AS+GG的合伙人Adrian Smith, Gordon Gill和Robert Forest如此说道,“城市信托奖与我司的目标一致,那就是高品质的设计应当对社区和环境有着积极正面的影响。这两个项目能够获得认可,我们感到十分高兴,这将推动高性能的、严谨的、以及植根当地背景的建筑设计的发展。”
Both of AS+GG’s honored projects are considered new icons for the cities in which they were built.
AS+GG的两个获誉项目都成为了所在城市的新标志。
Now open in Seoul, Korea, FKI Tower is a 116,000 sm, 50-story, 240-meter-tall tower that features an innovative exterior wall designed specifically for the project. The building’s unique skin helps reduce internal heating and cooling loads while collecting energy through photovoltaic panels that are integrated into the spandrel areas of the southwest and northwest facades.
现已投入使用的FKI大厦位于韩国首尔,是一栋建筑面积为11.6万平方米,共50层,240米高的写字楼。塔楼最醒目的特征来自为它特制的创新外墙体系;独特的建筑外皮有助减少室内供暖和制冷负荷,同时通过铺设在西南和西北外立面的窗间墙区域的太阳能光伏板收集能源。
The Civic Trust Awards National Panel commented, “FKI Tower has become a centerpiece of Seoul—a fantastic place to work as well as an inspiring place to view the surrounding city. The tower is what a modern office building should be: intelligent, high performing, and forward-looking, while still exhibiting timeless and enduring qualities.”
城市信托奖全国评审团如此评价FKI大厦:“FKI大厦已然成为首尔的重要标志,既是卓越的工作场所,又是观赏城市景观的绝佳去处。塔楼代表现代化办公楼的典范:智能化、高性能、前瞻性同时又具备永恒持久的品质。”
The new Waldorf Astoria in Beijing, China is a 176-room hotel that responds to the formality of the surrounding historic buildings of the Forbidden City, the nation’s most important historical treasure. The new hotel is a testament that the Waldorf brand is highly inclusive in design and function. Every room, regardless of price, is equipped with equally stunning city views and well-appointed amenities. The luxurious bronze exterior acts as a self-shading frame that protects the building and minimizes the solar heat gain from all directions, creating both an environmentally and culturally specific building.
新落成的中国北京的华尔道夫酒店拥有176套客房,它的设计风格力求与在其附近,最珍贵的中国古建筑–紫禁城保持和谐。新酒店突出了华尔道夫品牌对设计和功能的重视。每个房间,无论价位如何,都享有同等优美的城市景观和齐全的配套设施。雍容华贵的铜外墙也是酒店的遮阳系统,既保护了建筑又将各个方向的热能吸收减至最低,创造了一栋既兼备环境和文化特定的建筑。
David Prichard, Chair of the Civic Trust Awards National Panel said of the project, “Hotels are rarely entered as their procurement often allows their architects little opportunity to make the standard plan layouts into decent buildings which respond positively to their context. Looking abroad we were pleased to see the Waldorf Astoria chain in Beijing has invested in a fine building that tunes into its cultural context and is a contemporary version of those imposing grand hotels of bygone eras.”
城市信托奖评审团主席David Prichard先生如此评价本项目:“酒店项目很少入围本奖项,因为酒店留给建筑师的发挥余地较少,很难将标准的平面布局设计成一栋能积极响应周边环境的优秀建筑。当我们把目光投向海外,我们非常高兴地看到华尔道夫酒店在北京投入了如此优美的建筑,并且与当地文化和周边环境调谐,它真是传奇大酒店的现代版本。”
