骑士校园的变革性和以人为本的设计将支持研究人员推进该计划的使命,缩短发现、开发和部署创新之间的时间,从而产生积极的社会影响。

The Knight Campus’s transformative, the human-centered design will support researchers as they advance the initiative’s mission to shorten the timeline between discovery, development, and deployment of innovations that will have a positive societal impact.

骑士园区鼓励来自不同科学领域的研究人员之间的合作,并旨在为他们创造一个优先考虑健康和优化人类绩效的环境,以加强他们之间的互动。建筑的体量强化了社区的概念。骑士校园的特色是两座L形塔楼,它们相互对峙,环绕着一个高架平台和庭院,上面有一个透明的连接点。露台上的半透明天幕在下雨时提供保护,同时提供一个充满光线的户外环境,让人们放松、社交和与自然沟通。两座塔楼的北侧折入庭院和露台,以玻璃幕墙系统展现建筑结构,简洁大方。

The Knight Campus encourages collaboration among researchers from a wide variety of scientific fields and is designed to create greater interactions between them in an environment that prioritizes wellness and optimizes human performance. The building’s massing reinforces the notion of community. The Knight Campus features two L-shaped towers that face each other to cradle an elevated terrace and courtyard, joined above by a transparent connector. A translucent canopy over the terrace offers protection during the rain, while providing a light-filled outdoor environment to relax, socialize, and connect with nature. The northern sides of the two towers, which fold into the courtyard and terrace, embrace simplicity in a glass curtain wall system that reveals the building structure.

分布在整个设施内的开放的、尺度各异的工作空间,使研究小组可以离开实验室,利用不同的公共环境。设施的上两层包含跨学科研究区,将实验和计算研究结合在一起。21英尺高的地板到地板的高度允许大量木材的悬空夹层结构,其中包括教师的办公室,创造了一个新的水平的连接到他们的实验室和研究生。

Open, variably scaled workspaces distributed throughout the facility allow research groups to leave their labs and take advantage of different communal environments. The two upper floors of the facility contain interdisciplinary research neighborhoods which bring experimental and computational research together. A 21-foot floor-to-floor height allows for suspended mezzanine structures of mass timber containing offices for faculty, creating a new level of connectivity to their laboratories and graduate students.

这座建筑被设计成具有高度的适应性,允许研究小组根据发现的方向轻松转移重点。透明度和开放空间促进了实验室的交流,并提高了建筑性能:通过减少工作台区的体积,减少了换气次数,减少了能源使用。根据研究人员的喜好,各种封闭和开放的计算空间补充了传统的工作台和工作室空间。创新实验室被设计成可以被该地区的初创企业出租,将骑士校区打造成一个旨在吸引世界各地的合作伙伴来解决一些社会最紧迫的问题的社区强化机构。

The building was programmed to be highly adaptive, allowing research groups to easily shift focus depending on where discoveries lead. Transparency and open space promote communication in the labs and heighten building performance: by reducing the volume of the bench areas, fewer air changes are necessary, and energy usage is diminished. A variety of closed and open computational spaces depending on researchers’ preferences supplement the traditional bench and studio spaces. The innovation labs have been designed to be rented out by startup businesses in the area, establishing the Knight Campus as a community-enhancing institution aimed at attracting partnerships from all around the world to tackle some of society’s most pressing problems.

独特的双层外墙标志着与俄勒冈州景观的联系。阳光通过折叠玻璃板的表皮照射到室内,模拟水在岩层上流淌,并提供了邀请户外人士进入室内的景观。高性能玻璃为实验室和办公空间提供遮挡,以减少太阳辐射热的摄入,提高视觉舒适度,强调透明度,同时将自然和科学展示出来。在每个主要的入口处,浮雕不锈钢墙面反射了邻近水景的光线,参考了附近的威拉米特河。建筑物采用了交叉层压木材,与周围的环境以及当地经济联系在一起。这个高效和可持续发展的校园正朝着LEED金级认证的方向发展。

The unique double-skin façade signals a connection to the Oregon landscape. Sunlight floods the interior through skin of folded glass panels, emulating water cascading over rock formations and offering views that invite the outdoors inside. High-performance glass shades the lab and office spaces to reduce solar heat gains, improve visual comfort, and emphasize transparency, while putting both nature and science on display. At each of the main entry points, embossed stainless steel walls reflect light from adjacent water features, referencing the nearby Willamette River. The building utilizes cross-laminated timber, connecting with the surrounding environment as well as the local economy. The highly efficient and sustainable campus is on track to be certified LEED Gold.

一座封闭的人行桥将新设施与现有的校园研究建筑连接起来。这座桥采用了自支撑和简单的系杆拱设计。它的特点是,两道拱门分别从林荫道两侧的一个共同支撑点弹出,并在其地板结构处使用拉索支撑桥梁围护结构。

An enclosed pedestrian bridge connects the new facility back to existing campus research buildings. The bridge has a tied arch design that is self-supporting and simple. It features two splayed arches springing from a common support point on each side of the boulevard and uses tension cables to support the bridge enclosure at its floor structure.
