對建築師 Ole Scheeren 嚟講,住喺建築物嘅人同喺入面做嘢嘅人似乎都係建築物不可或缺嘅一部分,就好似水泥,鋼筋,玻璃咁。佢問:建築物之間可唔可以有合作同故事,而唔止得一般高樓大廈嘅疏離感同分類學上嘅名稱呢?參觀佢設計嘅五座建築物,包括一個位於中國嘅紐曲式大樓同泰國嘅水上電影院,並聽下佢哋背後嘅故事。

喺過去好幾個世紀
00:13
For much of the past過去 century世紀,
0
1166
1692
建築行業受一條著名理論魔咒所左右
00:14
architecture建築 was under the spell拼寫
of a famous著名 doctrine學說.
1
2882
2808
00:18
"Form形式 follows遵循 function功能" had become成為
modernity's現代性的 ambitious雄心勃勃 manifesto宣言
2
6396
3595
「型式追隨功能」呢個理論
一度成為當代最雄心勃勃嘅理念
同時又係個帶有不良影響嘅緊箍咒
00:22
and detrimental有害 straitjacket緊身衣,
3
10015
2253
呢句話雖然令建築唔再使講求裝飾功能
00:24
as it liberated解放 architecture建築
from the decorative裝飾,
4
12292
2969
但同時令建築走向
純功能同有限用途嘅方向
00:27
but condemned譴責 it to utilitarian功利 rigor嚴謹
and restrained克制 purpose目的.
5
15285
3901
00:32
Of course課程, architecture建築 is about function功能,
6
20418
2706
當然,建築係講功能性
但我想重新演譯
Bernard Tschumi 呢句話嘅意思
00:35
but I want to remember記得 a rewriting重寫
of this phrase短語 by Bernard伯纳德 TschumiTschumi,
7
23148
3667
00:38
and I want to propose提出
a completely完全 different不同 quality質素.
8
26839
2713
00:43
If form形式 follows遵循 fiction小說,
9
31140
1973
如果「型隨小說」
00:45
we could think of architecture建築
and buildings建築 as a space空間 of stories故事 --
10
33556
4183
我哋可以理解建築設計同建築物
為一個空間嘅故事
有關居住果度嘅人嘅故事
00:49
stories故事 of the people that live there,
11
37763
2480
同埋裡面做嘢嘅人嘅故事
00:52
of the people that work
in these buildings建築.
12
40267
2355
00:55
And we could start初時 to imagine想象
the experiences經驗 our buildings建築 create創建.
13
43088
4015
我哋可以想像
我哋建築物留低俾人嘅印象
00:59
In this sense, I'm interested興趣 in fiction小說
14
47965
2603
因為噉樣,我對小說感興趣嘅原因
唔係因為佢夠虛幻,而係因為真實
01:02
not as the implausible難以置信 but as the real真正,
15
50592
3578
就好似建築對住喺裡面嘅居民
嚟講嘅意義一樣
01:06
as the reality現實 of what architecture建築 means意味着
16
54194
1998
01:08
for the people that live
in it and with it.
17
56216
2348
01:11
Our buildings建築 are prototypes原型,
ideas想法 for how the space空間 of living生活
18
59666
3599
我哋嘅建築物都
可以話係一啲雛形、諗法
話俾人聽我哋生活空間
01:15
or how the space空間 of working工作
could be different不同,
19
63289
2328
或者工作空間可以唔同
01:18
and what a space空間 of culture文化
or a space空間 of media媒體 could look like today今日.
20
66728
3501
以至文化、媒體空間
喺現今世代可以係點嘅樣
01:23
Our buildings建築 are real真正;
they're being built建立.
21
71246
2080
我哋嘅建築物係真嘅
佢哋係起出嚟
01:25
They're an explicit明確 engagement訂婚
in physical物理 reality現實
22
73350
2859
佢哋係實物同想法
01:28
and conceptual概念 possibility可能性.
23
76233
2128
01:32
I think of our architecture建築
as organizational組織 structures結構.
24
80013
3754
我會將我哋嘅建築物諗成係組織嘅結構
01:36
At their佢哋 core核心 is indeed講真
structural結構 thinking思維, like a system系統:
25
84276
3628
佢哋核心係結構思想
就好似一個系統咁
01:39
How can we arrange安排 things
in both a functional功能
26
87928
3151
我哋點樣令啲嘢
同時具有功能同實驗用途?
01:43
and experiential經驗 way?
27
91103
1765
01:46
How can we create創建 structures結構
that generate生成 a series系列
28
94188
2668
我哋點樣可以令到結構
帶出一系列關係同故事呢?
01:48
of relationships關係 and narratives敍述?
29
96880
2419
而喺建築物裡面嘅居民
01:51
And how can fictive虛擬 stories故事
30
99672
1591
01:53
of the inhabitants居民 and users用戶
of our buildings建築
31
101287
2814
同用戶似小說一樣嘅故事
可以點樣幫棟建築物加添一啲嘅描述?
01:56
script腳本 the architecture建築,
32
104125
1952
01:58
while the architecture建築 scripts腳本
those stories故事 at the same相同 time?
33
106101
3367
同時建築物可以影響返呢啲故事?
02:02
And here comes the second第二 term術語 into play,
34
110428
1985
第二個字係我叫做嘅「故事混合體」
02:04
what I call "narrative敍事 hybrids襍交種" --
35
112437
2238
02:06
structures結構 of multiple多個
simultaneous同時 stories故事
36
114699
2745
好多個同時進行嘅故事
喺我哋嘅建築物展開
02:09
that unfold展開 throughout整個
the buildings建築 we create創建.
37
117468
2730
02:12
So we could think of architecture建築
as complex複雜 systems系統 of relationships關係,
38
120706
4860
所以我哋可以想像建築物
喺程式上、功能上
02:17
both in a programmatic編程 and functional功能 way
39
125590
2816
實驗上、情緒性或者社會上
係一個複雜嘅關係嚟
02:20
and in an experiential經驗
and emotive感情 or social社會 way.
40
128898
4503
02:27
This is the headquarters總部
for China's中國嘅 national國家 broadcaster電視台,
41
135187
2747
呢個係中國中央電視台嘅總部
呢棟建築物係我同 Rem Koolhaas 喺
02:29
which I designed設計 together一起
with RemRem Koolhaas库哈斯 at OMAOma.
42
137958
3141
大都會建築事務嗰陣一齊設計
02:33
When I first arrived in Beijing北京 in 2002,
the city城市 planners規劃 showed表明 us this image圖像:
43
141882
4139
2002 年當我第一次到北京果陣
城市規劃員向我哋展示一張城市藍圖︰
02:38
a forest森林 of several幾個 hundred skyscrapers摩天大樓
44
146045
2167
過百棟高樓大廈將會出現喺中央商業區
02:40
to emerge出現 in the central中央
business業務 district,
45
148236
2071
02:42
except除咗 at that time,
only a handful of them existed存在.
46
150331
2621
但當時只有為數唔多嘅大樓喺度
所以喺幾乎咩都唔知嘅情況下設計
02:45
So we had to design設計 in a context上下文
that we knew almost爭 D nothing about,
47
153389
3263
我哋只係知道,座建築會係垂直嘅
02:48
except除咗 one thing:
it would all be about verticality垂直.
48
156676
3095
02:52
Of course課程, the skyscraper摩天大樓 is vertical垂直 --
it's a profoundly深刻 hierarchical層次 structure結構,
49
160366
4779
當然,高樓大廈都係垂直嘅
垂直式係其中一種嘅大廈類型
02:57
the top返回頁首 always the best最好,
the bottom底部 the worst糟糕,
50
165169
2416
頂部永遠係最好
底部永遠係最差
似乎係,你起得越高就越好
02:59
and the taller you are,
the better, so it seems好似.
51
167609
3163
03:03
And we wanted to ask問吓 ourselves自己,
52
171661
1509
我哋問自己
一棟建築物可唔可以
有一個完全唔同嘅特性?
03:05
could a building建築 be about
a completely完全 different不同 quality質素?
53
173194
2793
佢可唔可以擺脫以往思維
03:08
Could it undo撤消 this hierarchy層次結構,
and could it be about a system系統
54
176011
3953
佢可唔可以係黏埋一齊
03:11
that is more about collaboration拍檔,
rather than isolation分離?
55
179988
3224
而並非一支嘢孤零零呢?
03:15
So we took this needle
and bent it back into itself本身,
56
183236
3054
所以我哋將呢支針拗彎
03:18
into a loop of interconnected互聯 activities活動.
57
186314
2853
形成一個空間互通嘅環
03:21
Our idea想法 was to bring all aspects方面
of television-making電視製作
58
189866
3279
我哋想將電視製作嘅所有環節
融合到同一個結構裡面:
03:25
into one single structure結構: news新聞,
program程序 production生產, broadcasting廣播,
59
193169
3987
新聞、節目製作、廣播
資料搜集、訓練、行政
03:29
research研究 and training培訓, administration管理 --
60
197180
2222
全部活動可以係呢個圈入面進行
03:31
all into a circuit電路
of interconnected互聯 activities活動
61
199426
3668
03:35
where people would meet滿足 in a process過程
of exchange交換 and collaboration拍檔.
62
203118
3913
個個可以係度見面、交流同合作
03:39
I still very much like this image圖像.
63
207959
1818
我仍然好鐘意呢幅圖
佢令我諗返起生物堂
03:41
It reminds one of biology生物學 classes,
if you remember記得 the human人類 body身體
64
209801
3123
如果你仲記得人體構造
各種器官同循環系統就好似一座建築咁
03:44
with all its organs器官
and circulatory循環 systems系統, like at school學校.
65
212948
2904
突然你會覺得建築物
03:47
And suddenly突然 you think of architecture建築
no longer as built建立 substance物質,
66
215876
3997
唔單單係建築材料堆成嘅嘢
03:51
but as an organism生物, as a life form形式.
67
219897
2102
佢更加似一個生命體
03:54
And as you start初時 to dissect解剖 this organism生物,
68
222436
2347
而當你開始剖析呢個生命體
你分辨到一系列嘅基本嘅技術部門
03:56
you can identify識別 a series系列
of primary主要 technical技術 clusters集群 --
69
224807
4729
節目製作部、廣播中心、新聞部
04:01
program程序 production生產,
broadcasting廣播 center中心 and news新聞.
70
229560
2694
04:04
Those are tightly緊密 intertwined交織
with social社會 clusters集群:
71
232857
3480
佢哋同社交設施
例如會議室、餐廳、交談區
係一齊、唔可以分開
04:08
meeting rooms間房, canteens食堂, chat聊天 areas一區 --
72
236361
3064
亦都係非正式場合俾人見面交流
04:11
informal非正式 spaces空間 for people
to meet滿足 and exchange交換.
73
239449
3084
04:15
So the organizational組織 structure結構
of this building建築 was a hybrid混合
74
243260
4238
所以呢個建築物嘅組織結構係種混合體
集技術、社交、人同表演於一身
04:19
between之間 the technical技術 and the social社會,
75
247522
2446
04:21
the human人類 and the performative表演.
76
249992
1834
04:24
And of course課程, we used the loop
of the building建築 as a circulatory循環 system系統,
77
252333
3640
我哋利用環形嘅特點串聯每一樣嘢
04:27
to thread线程 everything together一起
and to allow允許 both visitors遊客 and staff員工
78
255997
3909
令訪客同員工都可以
喺呢個建築裡面體驗唔同用途
04:31
to experience經驗 all these different不同
functions功能 in a great unity統一.
79
259930
3585
04:37
With 473,000 square廣場 meters,
80
265118
3060
473,000 平方米嘅建築面積
令佢成為全世界數一數二大嘅建築物
04:40
it is one of the largest最大 buildings建築
ever built建立 in the world世界.
81
268202
3011
裡面可以容納一萬人
04:43
It has a population人口 of over 10,000 people,
82
271237
2668
冇錯,咁嘅規模超出咗我哋
04:45
and of course課程, this is a scale規模
that exceeds超過 the comprehension理解
83
273929
3586
對一般建築物嘅理解範圍
04:49
of many好多 things and the scale規模
of typical典型 architecture建築.
84
277539
2760
所以我們停工過一排
04:52
So we stopped停止 work for a while
85
280323
1628
然後坐低,剪出一萬張貼紙仔
04:53
and sat down and cutcut 10,000 little sticks
and glued them onto a model模型,
86
281975
4305
將佢哋貼係一個模型上面
04:58
just simply淨係 to confront面對 ourselves自己
with what that quantity數量 actually講真 meant意味着.
87
286304
4023
只係單純咁想挑戰我哋自己
對數字真正嘅理解
05:03
But of course課程, it's not a number數量,
88
291261
1610
但當然啦,最重要嘅唔係數字
05:04
it is the people, it is a community社區
that inhabits棲息 the building建築,
89
292895
4609
而係人,生活喺呢棟大樓裡面嘅社群
為咗理解班人兼為建築物寫藍本
05:09
and in order to both comprehend理解
this, but also script腳本 this architecture建築,
90
297528
4453
我哋創造咗五個虛擬人物
05:14
we identified確定 five characters字符,
hypothetical假設 characters字符,
91
302005
3246
然後用一日時間睇下佢哋喺
呢棟大樓嘅生活動態
05:17
and we followed黎緊 them throughout整個 their佢哋 day
in a life in this building建築,
92
305275
4569
睇下佢哋會喺邊度見其他人
05:21
thought of where they would meet滿足,
what they would experience經驗.
93
309868
2883
佢哋會經歷乜嘢
05:24
So it was a way to script腳本 and design設計
the building建築, but of course課程,
94
312775
3139
呢個係描繪同設計建築嘅方法
咁當然,都係一種體會佢嘅方式
05:27
also to communicate溝通 its experiences經驗.
95
315938
2037
呢個係同現代美術館
05:29
This was part部分 of an exhibition展覽
with the Museum博物館 of Modern現代 Art藝術
96
317999
3288
喺北京同紐約搞嘅展覧
05:33
in both New新增功能 York約克 and Beijing北京.
97
321311
2308
05:36
This is the main主要 broadcast廣播 control控制 room間房,
98
324865
2199
呢度係廣播控制室
安裝要求相當大
05:39
a technical技術 installation安裝 so large,
99
327088
1818
呢度可以同時播二百個頻道
05:40
it can broadcast廣播 over 200
channels渠道 simultaneously同時.
100
328930
3332
05:45
And this is how the building建築
stands in Beijing北京 today今日.
101
333643
3420
呢個係佢依家喺北京嘅外貌
05:49
Its first broadcast廣播 live
was the London倫敦 Olympics奧運會 2012,
102
337801
3294
佢做嘅第一次直播係
2012 年倫敦奧運會
嗰次之前,佢已經試過喺外面
05:53
after it had been completed完成
from the outside外面 for the Beijing北京 Olympics奧運會.
103
341119
4055
完成北京奧運嘅轉播
05:57
And you can see at the very tip貼士
of this 75-meter cantilever懸臂,
104
345998
4063
你可以喺 75 米懸臂嗰頂睇風景
呢三個細圓圈就係
06:02
those three little circles.
105
350085
1554
06:03
And they're indeed講真 part部分 of a public公眾 loop
that goes through透過 the building建築.
106
351663
3501
貫穿整棟大樓嘅開放迴廊嘅一部分
佢哋用玻璃做
06:07
They're a piece一塊 of glass玻璃
that you can stand on
107
355188
2552
你可以企喺上面俯瞰你腳下
成個城市慢慢運作
06:09
and watch the city城市 pass透過 by
below下面 you in slow motion運動.
108
357764
4103
06:15
The building建築 has become成為
part部分 of everyday每日 life in Beijing北京.
109
363524
3250
呢棟建築已經係北京生活嘅一部分
佢就係果度
06:18
It is there.
110
366798
1491
佢亦將變成咗北京
06:20
It has also become成為 a very popular流行 backdrop背景
111
368313
3088
一個相當受歡迎嘅婚禮攝影場地
06:23
for wedding婚禮 photography攝影.
112
371425
1485
06:24
(Laughter笑聲)
113
372934
2862
(笑聲)
06:30
But its most important重要 moment時刻
is maybe sill窗台 this one.
114
378621
2974
但最重要嘅時刻可能係
當呢本《城市漫步》嘅週刊
一本似倫敦《Time Out》嘅週刊
06:33
"That's Beijing北京" is similar類似 to "Time Out,"
115
381619
2054
06:35
a magazine雜誌 that broadcasts廣播 what
is happening發生 in town during the week,
116
383697
4850
描述嗰個星期城市發生咗咩事
突然間你會發現
06:40
and suddenly突然 you see the building建築
portrayed描繪 no longer as physical物理 matter個問題,
117
388571
4963
呢棟大樓唔單止只係一棟大樓
佢仲同時扮演梗城市嘅一員
06:45
but actually講真 as an urban城市 actor演員,
118
393558
1515
06:47
as part部分 of a series系列 of personas角色
that define定義 the life of the city城市.
119
395097
4689
決定咗呢個城市嘅生活
建築設計突然間有咗人嘅特徵
06:52
So architecture建築 suddenly突然
assumes假設 the quality質素 of a player球員,
120
400987
4910
06:57
of something that writes stories故事
and performs執行 stories故事.
121
405921
3923
好似作家咁寫故事、表達故事
而我認為呢樣可以成為
07:02
And I think that could be one
of its primary主要 meanings意義
122
410619
4312
其中一個我哋相信嘅建築嘅基本意義
07:06
that we believe in.
123
414955
1247
呢棟大樓仲有另一個故事
07:08
But of course課程, there's another另一個
story故事 to this building建築.
124
416226
2611
就係建造佢嘅人嘅故事
07:10
It is the story故事 of the people
that made作出 it --
125
418861
2929
四百個由我帶領幾乎超過十年
嘅工程師同建築師
07:13
400 engineers工程師 and architects建築師
that I was guiding指導
126
421814
2818
07:16
over almost爭 D a decade同你十年 of collaborative協同 work
127
424656
2591
07:19
that we spent together一起
in scripting腳本 this building建築,
128
427271
2967
我們一齊起呢棟大樓
想像佢成真
07:22
in imagining想象 its reality現實
129
430262
1906
到最後終於喺中國內地將佢起好
07:24
and ultimately最終 getting得到 it built建立 in China中國.

07:29
This is a residential住宅 development發展
in Singapore星架坡, large scale規模.
131
437737
4356
呢個係一個係新加坡嘅大型住宅項目
07:34
If we look at Singapore星架坡 like most of Asia亞洲
and more and more of the world世界,
132
442541
4230
如果我哋睇下新加坡
佢同亞洲多數地方
同全世界好多地方一樣
07:38
of course課程, it is dominated主導 by the tower,
133
446795
3547
都係以高樓大廈為主
一種普遍現象係
07:42
a typology類型 that indeed講真 creates創建
more isolation分離 than connectedness連通,
134
450366
4521
呢類型嘅大廈營造咗疏離感
而唔係聯繫感
07:46
and I wanted to ask問吓, how
could we think about living生活,
135
454911
3211
而我想問
我哋可以點樣唔單止將住宅睇成係
自己既私隱、個人同住所
07:50
not only in terms條款 of the privacy私隱
and individuality個性 of ourselves自己
136
458146
3825
07:53
and our apartment公寓,
137
461995
1436
以至係一種集體嘅嘢 ?
07:55
but in an idea想法 of a collective集體?
138
463455
2636
我哋要諗下點創造
一個促進社區交流嘅環境
07:58
How could we think about creating創建
a communal公眾 environment環境
139
466115
3399
08:01
in which sharing共享 things was as great
as having your own自己?
140
469538
3888
令你樂意同人分享自己嘅嘢 ?
08:06
The typical典型 answer回答 to the question個問題 --
we had to design設計 1,040 apartments公寓 --
141
474664
4696
典型嘅解答係
我哋要設計出 1,040 間公寓
08:11
would have looked like this:
142
479384
1357
外型就好似咁︰
當地政府法例限制樓宇只可以有 24 層高
08:12
24-story-故事 height高度 limit限制 given
by the planning規劃 authorities當局,
143
480765
2746
12 棟大樓咩都冇
08:15
12 towers with nothing
but residual殘餘 in between之間 --
144
483535
3974
之間只有用剩嘅土地
相當緊密的格局
08:19
a very tight system系統 that,
although雖然 the tower isolates分離 you,
145
487533
2913
雖然住樓可以將你同其他人分隔開
但根本俾唔到你私隱
08:22
it doesn't even give you privacy私隱,
because you're so close關閉 to the next one,
146
490470
3507
因為你離隔籬鄰居係好近
08:26
that it is very questionable可疑
what the qualities質素 of this would be.
147
494001
3290
亦令人非常質疑住樓嘅質素
08:30
So I proposed提出 to topple推翻 the towers,
throw the vertical垂直 into the horizontal水平
148
498488
4294
所以,我建議推淋晒大廈
將垂直設計改做水平設計
08:34
and stack堆棧 them up,
149
502806
1790
將佢哋堆砌起嚟
從側面睇係不規則嘅
08:36
and what looks睇黎 a bit random隨機 from the side一邊,
150
504620
2547
如果你搭直升機睇落去
08:39
if you look from the viewpoint觀點
of the helicopter直升機,
151
507191
2794
你可以睇到佢嘅組織結構
08:42
you can see its organizational組織 structure結構
is actually講真 a hexagonal六角 grid網格,
152
510009
4729
水平建築物擺埋一齊會形成六邊形
08:46
in which these horizontal水平
building建築 blocks are stacked堆疊 up
153
514762
3737
務求中間有一個大嘅花園
08:50
to create創建 huge巨大 outdoor戶外 courtyards庭院 --
central中央 spaces空間 for the community社區,
154
518523
5069
有著好多設施同功能
08:55
programmed編程 with a variety品種
of amenities設施 and functions功能.
155
523616
3356
08:59
And you see that these courtyards庭院
are not hermetically密封 sealed密封 spaces空間.
156
527800
3287
呢啲花園並唔係密閉空間
佢哋係開放、通透、互通嘅
09:03
They're open打開, permeable滲透;
they're interconnected互聯.
157
531111
2492
我們叫呢個項目做「交錯」
09:05
We called the project項目 "The Interlace交錯,"
158
533627
2224
好似我哋將人連埋一齊
09:07
thinking思維 that we interlace交錯
and interconnect互連
159
535875
2974
09:10
the human人類 beings生命 and the spaces空間 alike一樣.
160
538873
2915
空間都係一樣
09:14
And the detailed詳細 quality質素
of everything we designed設計
161
542502
2891
我們設計嘅每樣細節都係想活化空間
09:17
was about animating動畫 the space空間
and giving the space空間 to the inhabitants居民.
162
545417
3832
還居民空間
09:21
And, in fact事實, it was a system系統
163
549273
1397
事實上,呢個系統裏面
09:22
where we would layer
primarily主要 communal公眾 spaces空間,
164
550694
3468
我哋既會強調公共空間
又會重視私人空間
09:26
stacked堆疊 to more and more
individual and private私人 spaces空間.
165
554186
3960
所以,我哋帶出咗
09:30
So we would open打開 up a spectrum
166
558662
1843
大眾同個人嘅概念
09:32
between之間 the collective集體 and the individual.
167
560529
3190
09:36
A little piece一塊 of math數學:
168
564203
1151
有一個小小嘅數學題 :
09:37
if we count計數 all the green綠色
that we left on the ground地面,
169
565378
2551
如果我哋將所有
喺地面上嘅綠色植物面積
扣除掉建築物佔地面積
09:39
minus減去 the footprint足跡 of the buildings建築,
170
567953
2085
然後加上所有有綠色植物嘅露台面積
09:42
and we would add添加 back
the green綠色 of all the terraces梯田,
171
570062
3427
09:45
we have 112 percent百分比 green綠色 space空間,
172
573513
2054
我哋會得出 112% 嘅綠色覆蓋率
09:47
so more nature自然 than not
having built建立 a building建築.
173
575591
2483
比起唔起樓仲要有更多嘅自然空間
09:50
And of course課程 this little piece一塊 of math數學
shows顯示 you that we are multiplying乘以
174
578463
4002
當然,呢個小小嘅數學題說明咗
我哋將有人住嘅空間都乘埋入去
09:54
the space空間 available可用
to those who live there.
175
582489
2857
09:57
This is, in fact事實, the 13th floor地板
of one of these terraces梯田.
176
585830
3184
呢度係其中一棟樓嘅 13 樓
你會見到為社交活動而設嘅
新基準平面、新地平面
10:01
So you see new新增功能 datum基準 planes飛機,
new新增功能 grounds理由 planes飛機 for social社會 activity活動.
177
589038
4619
10:06
We paid支付 a lot of attention注意
to sustainability不過持續性.
178
594792
2938
我哋好注重可持續發展
10:10
In the tropics熱帶, the sun太陽 is the most
important重要 thing to pay支付 attention注意 to,
179
598212
3579
喺熱帶地區,太陽係最必須留意嘅嘢
10:13
and, in fact事實, it is seeking尋求
protection保護 from the sun太陽.
180
601815
3062
而遮蔽陽光係建築需要做嘅嘢
我哋首先會確認所有公寓大樓
10:16
We first proved證明 that all apartments公寓
would have sufficient daylight日光
181
604901
3137
一年內有足夠嘅太陽
10:20
through透過 the year.
182
608062
1173
10:21
We then went on to optimize優化
the glazing上光 of the facades立面
183
609648
2661
然後我們優化外牆嘅玻璃
減少建築物嘅能源消耗
10:24
to minimize最小化 the energy能源
consumption消費 of the building建築.
184
612333
2569
10:27
But most importantly重要, we could prove證明
that through透過 the geometry幾何
185
615981
3415
但最重要,我哋可以透過大廈嘅座向
證明真係做到能源效益
10:31
of the building建築 design設計,
186
619420
1576
建築物本身提供足夠嘅遮陰俾中庭花園
10:33
the building建築 itself本身 would provide提供
sufficient shading陰影 to the courtyards庭院
187
621020
3362
所以花園成年都可以開放俾人
10:36
so that those would be usable可用
throughout整個 the entire整個 year.
188
624406
3002
我哋沿著主風廊設置咗水槽
10:39
We further進一步 placed放置 water bodies機構
along沿 the prevailing當時 wind corridors走廊,
189
627432
3478
水蒸發可以冷卻環境
10:42
so that evaporative蒸發 cooling冷卻
would create創建 microclimates小氣候
190
630934
3720
仲會形成一個微型氣候
10:46
that, again, would enhance提高
the quality質素 of those spaces空間
191
634678
3485
噉就可以改善居民居住嘅質素
10:50
available可用 for the inhabitants居民.
192
638187
2411
10:53
And it was the idea想法 of creating創建
this variety品種 of choices選擇,
193
641773
3746
呢款樓令你有得揀
喺建築物之內想去邊都得
10:57
of freedom自由 to think
where you would want to be,
194
645543
4073
11:01
where you would want to escape逃脫, maybe,
195
649640
1904
11:03
within the own自己 complexity複雜性
of the complex複雜 in which you live.
196
651568
3818
11:09
But coming from Asia亞洲 to Europe歐洲:
197
657036
2040
宜家離開亞洲,去到歐洲
我哋見到一座建築
11:11
a building建築 for a German德文
media媒體 company公司 based基於 in Berlin柏林,
198
659100
3856
佢係屬於一間位於柏林
11:14
transitioning過渡 from the traditional傳統
print打印 media媒體 to the digital數字 media媒體.
199
662980
4420
啱啱由傳統印刷媒體轉型到
數碼媒體嘅德國公司
11:19
And its CEOCeo asked問吓 a few幾個
very pertinent相關 questions個問題:
200
667830
2864
公司執行董事問咗幾個好中肯嘅問題
11:23
Why would anyone任何人 today今日
still want to go to the office辦公室,
201
671146
2605
點解依家每個人仍然會去寫字樓番工
即使佢地其實可以喺任何地方做嘢 ?
11:25
because you can actually講真 work anywhere地方?
202
673775
2189
一個公司嘅數碼形象
11:27
And how could a digital數字 identity身份
of a company公司 be embodied體現
203
675988
3873
可以點樣喺建築物上面表現出嚟 ?
11:31
in a building建築?
204
679885
1151
11:34
We created創建 not only an object對象,
but at the center中心 of this object對象
205
682147
3823
我哋創作嘅唔只係一件物件
我哋仲喺物件嘅中間整咗個大空間
11:37
we created創建 a giant巨大 space空間,
206
685994
1595
11:39
and this space空間 was about
the experience經驗 of a collective集體,
207
687613
3674
呢個空間係關於集體嘅經驗
11:43
the experience經驗 of collaboration拍檔
and of togetherness團結.
208
691311
2867
合作同一齊嘅經歷
11:47
Communication通信, interaction互動
as the center中心 of a space空間
209
695011
3615
溝通、互動係空間嘅核心
溝通、互動會自動喺中間
11:50
that in itself本身 would float浮動,
210
698650
2539
11:53
like what we call the collaborative協同 cloud,
211
701213
2112
就好似係我哋所講嘅
「合作雲端」喺建築物中間
11:55
in the middle中間 of the building建築,
212
703349
1508
被好多個標準模組嘅辦公室包圍
11:56
surrounded包圍 by an envelope信封
of standard標準 modular糢塊化 offices辦事處.
213
704881
3388
只要由你安靜嘅辦公枱行幾步
12:00
So with only a few幾個 steps步驟
from your quiet安靜 work desk,
214
708944
3150
你就可以喺核心空間入面
經歷好多共同嘅事
12:04
you could participate參與
in the giant巨大 collective集體 experience經驗
215
712118
3727
12:07
of the central中央 space空間.
216
715869
1629
12:12
Finally最後, we come to London倫敦,
a project項目 commissioned委託
217
720159
3579
最後,我哋嚟到倫敦
一個由倫敦市長委任開發公司嘅項目
12:15
by the London倫敦 Legacy遺產
Development發展 Corporation公司
218
723762
2578
12:18
of the Mayor市長 of London倫敦.
219
726364
1429
12:20
We were asked問吓 to undertake承接 a study研究
220
728309
2188
佢哋要求我哋研究
Stratford 奧運公園嘅土地開發潛力
12:22
and investigate探討 the potential of a site網站
221
730521
2792
12:25
out in Stratford斯特拉特福德 in the Olympic奧運 Park公園.
222
733337
2471
12:28
In the 19th century世紀, Prince王子 Albert阿尔伯特
had created創建 AlbertopolisAlbertopolis.
223
736229
3584
十九世紀,Albert 王子建立咗 Albert 城
而 Boris Johnson 就想建立奧林匹克城
12:32
And Boris鲍里斯 Johnson約翰遜 thought
of creating創建 OlympicopolisOlympicopolis.
224
740513
3738
12:37
The idea想法 was to bring together一起
some of Britain's英國嘅 greatest最大 institutions機構,
225
745211
4272
個想法係將一啲英國最大既機構
同一啲國際機構擺埋一齊
12:41
some international國際 ones,
and to create創建 a new新增功能 system系統 of synergies協同效應.
226
749507
3860
創造一個新嘅協同效益系統
當時十九世紀 Albert 王子建立 Albert 城
12:45
Prince王子 Albert阿尔伯特, as yet尚未, created創建
AlbertopolisAlbertopolis in the 19th century世紀,
227
753803
4524
係想展示人類嘅成就
12:50
thought of showcasing展示
all achievements成就 of mankind人類,
228
758351
2463
同埋想將藝術同科學放埋一齊
12:52
bringing arts藝術 and science科學 closer together一起.
229
760838
2800
12:56
And he built建立 Exhibition展覽 Road道路,
a linear線性 sequence序列 of those institutions機構.
230
764082
4674
佢仲起咗一條路叫展覧路
機構按次序進駐條路
當然,依家社會已經比當時進步咗好多
13:01
But of course課程, today's今日嘅 society社會
has moved on from there.
231
769836
3691
我哋唔再係活喺一個
13:05
We no longer live in a world世界
232
773551
1956
每樣嘢都界定清楚嘅世界
13:07
in which everything
is as clearly清楚 delineated劃定
233
775531
2680
13:10
or separated分開 from each每個 other.
234
778235
1502
我哋生活係一個
13:11
We live in a world世界 in which
boundaries邊界 start初時 to blur模糊
235
779761
3389
領域分類開始模糊嘅世界
13:15
between之間 the different不同 domains,
236
783174
1468
一個合作同互動遠比保持分開
更加緊要嘅世界
13:16
and in which collaboration拍檔 and interaction互動
becomes成為 far more important重要
237
784666
3990
13:20
than keeping保持 separations分離.
238
788680
1784
13:23
So we wanted to think
of a giant巨大 culture文化 machine,
239
791408
3019
所以我哋想建立一個大型嘅文化機器
即係一座會協調並賦予
13:26
a building建築 that would orchestrate協調
and animate動畫 the various各種 domains,
240
794451
4777
唔同領域生命嘅建築物
13:31
but allow允許 them to interact互動
and collaborate合作.
241
799252
3054
但建築物同時又容許
領域之間互動同合作
13:35
At the base基地 of it is a very simple簡單 module糢塊,
242
803211
2105
而建築物底部係一個非常簡單嘅模組
一個環形模組
13:37
a ring module糢塊.
243
805340
1151
佢有一條內廊式走廊,有日照同通風
13:38
It can function功能 as a double-loaded雙載
corridor走廊, has daylight日光, has ventilation通風.
244
806515
3643
佢係通透嘅
13:42
It can be glazed釉面 over
245
810182
1151
噉就可以變成一個大型展覽表演嘅空間
13:43
and turned打開 into a giant巨大
exhibitionalexhibitional performance性能 space空間.
246
811357
2873
呢啲模組堆砌埋一齊
13:46
These modules糢塊 were stacked堆疊 together一起
247
814254
2125
大部分活動都可以
用任何一個呢啲嘅模組
13:48
with the idea想法 that almost爭 D any
function功能 could, over time,
248
816403
3762
13:52
occupy佔據 any of these modules糢塊.
249
820189
1737
13:53
So institutions機構 could shrink收縮 or contract合同,
250
821950
3116
機構就可以咁而縮細規模
因為喺未來,文化某種程度嚟講
13:57
as, of course課程, the future未來 of culture文化
is, in a way, the most uncertain不塙定性 of all.
251
825090
4721
係最無法預測嘅一樣嘢
14:02
This is how the building建築 sits,
adjacent相鄰 to the Aquatics游泳 Centre中心,
252
830733
2955
呢棟建築將坐落水上運動中心隔嚟
14:05
opposite相反 the Olympic奧運 Stadium體育場.
253
833712
1951
喺奧運會場對面
14:08
And you can see how
its cantilevering懸臂 volumes
254
836608
2333
你可以睇到佢嘅懸臂式空間係點
伸延同融入咗公眾空間
14:10
project項目 out and engage從事 the public公眾 space空間
255
838965
2790
同佢嘅中庭係點帶俾公眾娛樂
14:13
and how its courtyards庭院
animate動畫 the public公眾 inside.
256
841779
3701
14:19
The idea想法 was to create創建 a complex複雜 system系統
257
847313
3228
個諗法係創造一個複雜嘅系統
俾裡面嘅機構可以維持佢哋嘅形象
14:22
in which institutional制度 entities實體
could maintain保持 their佢哋 own自己 identity身份,
258
850565
4888
但又唔會被當係建築物
大空間嘅一小部分
14:27
in which they would not
be subsumed包含 in a singular奇異 volume體積.

呢個係同法國巴黎
龐畢藝術中心嘅比例對照圖
14:30
Here's呢度有 a scale規模 comparison比較
to the Centre中心 Pompidou in Paris巴黎.
260
858434
3166
14:33
It both shows顯示 the enormous巨大 scale規模
and potential of the project項目,
261
861624
3365
顯示出呢個項目嘅龐大規模同潛力
但都有唔一樣嘅地方
14:37
but also the difference差異:
262
865013
1287
佢係一個多重合成建築物
14:38
here, it is a multiplicity多樣性
of a heterogeneous异构 structure結構,
263
866324
4175
裡面唔同嘅機構可以互動
14:42
in which different不同 entities實體 can interact互動
264
870523
2511
而又同時不失佢哋嘅形象
14:45
without losing失去 their佢哋 own自己 identity身份.
265
873058
2459
個諗法係咁嘅:創造一個組織結構
14:48
And it was this thought: to create創建
an organizational組織 structure結構
266
876395
3950
可以令唔同故事都可以描述出嚟
14:52
that would allow允許 for multiple多個
narratives敍述 to be scripted腳本 --
267
880369
2833
包括從事教育同創造文化嘅人
14:55
for those in the educational教育 parts部分
that create創建 and think culture文化;
268
883226
5454
表演視覺藝術、舞蹈嘅人
15:00
for those that present目前
the visual視覺 arts藝術, the dance舞蹈;
269
888704
3506
以及公眾,俾佢哋用唔同方式欣賞呢啲嘢
15:04
and for the public公眾 to be
admitted承認 into all of this
270
892234
2809
15:07
with a series系列 of possible可能 trajectories軌跡,
271
895067
2646
然後由呢幾批人闡述佢哋
15:09
to script腳本 their佢哋 own自己 reading閲讀
of these narratives敍述
272
897737
2732
對呢啲故事嘅理解同本身嘅經歷
15:12
and their佢哋 own自己 experience經驗.
273
900493
1633
15:16
And I want to end結束 on a project項目
that is very small,
274
904475
3406
我想講一個計劃嚟做總結
呢個計劃其實又細又同其他計劃好唔同
15:19
in a way, very different不同:
275
907905
1253
15:21
a floating浮動 cinema電影院
in the ocean海洋 of Thailand泰國.
276
909896
2048
個計劃係一個泰國嘅水上電影院
15:23
Friends朋友 of mine had founded成立
a film電影 festival節日,
277
911968
3536
我有朋友搵到一個電影節
我諗如果我哋思考電影嘅故事同讀白
15:27
and I thought,
278
915528
1190
15:29
if we think of the stories故事
and narratives敍述 of movies電影,
279
917226
3279
我哋應該都可以思考
15:32
we should also think of the narratives敍述
of the people that watch them.
280
920529
3543
睇呢部戲嘅觀眾佢哋自己嘅讀白
所以我設計咗一個小型模組式水上平台
15:36
So I designed設計 a small
modular糢塊化 floating浮動 platform平台,
281
924096
3285
用嚟自當地漁民嘅技術整出嚟
15:39
based基於 on the techniques技術
of local當地 fishermen漁民,
282
927405
2274
用佢哋起龍蝦田同魚田嘅技術
15:41
how they built建立 their佢哋 lobster龍蝦
and fish farms農場.
283
929703
2087
15:43
We collaborated合作 with the local當地 community社區
284
931814
2379
我哋同當地社區合作
起咗呢個由佢哋回收返嚟嘅物料
15:46
and built建立, out of recycled再生
materials材料 of their佢哋 own自己,
285
934217
3732
15:49
this fantastical幻想 floating浮動 platform平台
286
937973
2122
製成嘅迷人水上平台
15:52
that gently輕輕 moved in the ocean海洋
287
940119
1921
我哋一路睇英國電影檔案館嘅戲
15:54
as we watched films電影
from the British英國 film電影 archive檔案,
288
942064
2884
好似 1904 年嘅「愛麗絲夢遊仙境」
15:56
[1903] "Alice愛麗絲 in Wonderland仙境," for example例子.
289
944972
2666
我哋一路慢慢移個平台去海度
15:59
The most primordial原始
experiences經驗 of the audience觀眾
290
947987
3057
我哋仲發現原來本地人嘅經歷
同電影嘅情節相同
16:03
merged合併 with the stories故事 of the movies電影.
291
951068
3065
所以我相信,建築設計超越物質同建築
16:07
So I believe that architecture建築 exceeds超過
the domain of physical物理 matter個問題,
292
955840
4810
16:12
of the built建立 environment環境,
293
960674
1460
16:14
but is really about how
we want to live our lives生活,
294
962158
3189
而真係同我哋想點生活
點樣闡述我哋同人哋嘅故事息息相關
16:17
how we script腳本 our own自己 stories故事
and those of others.
295
965371

16:20
Thank you.
