25米高的马尔斯克塔–被翻译为 “沼泽塔”，因为它位于丹麦著名的国家公园瓦登海的沼泽地中–提供自然环境的广阔视野。马尔斯克塔作为一个雕塑般的艺术对象出现在景观中，它将作为一个观景台，促进社区成为关键的旅游地标。这是一座可供轮椅通行的塔，位于塔的核心部分的电梯可通过地面坡道进入。该塔的简单设计，由科尔登钢材料定义，散发着自然的美感，与周围的环境相融合，同时成为丹麦一个新的、可见的目的地。
The 25-meter-high Marsk Tower – translated as “Marsh Tower” due to its location in the marshlands of Denmark’s popular National Park, Wadden Sea – offers expansive views of the natural environment. Appearing as a sculptural art object rising out of the landscape, Marsk Tower will function as an observation lookout that facilitates community as a key tourist landmark. A wheelchair-accessible tower, an elevator located in the core of the tower provides access via the ground level ramp. The tower’s simple design, defined by Corten steel materiality, exudes a natural aesthetic that blends with the surrounding environment while simultaneously becoming a new, visible destination in Denmark.
“由于地球的曲率，游客在走到塔顶时，会逐渐扩大他们对地平线的视野。在塔的脚下，你将能看到4公里的远方，但从塔顶上看，视野扩大到18公里的地平线，”BIG – Bjarke Ingels Group的建筑师和合伙人Jakob Lange说。”楼梯在塔顶加宽，形成一个110米见方的瞭望点，视野延伸到埃斯比约市、罗莫岛和西尔特岛，以及瓦登海之外的北海。”
“Because of the earth curvature, visitors will gradually expand their view of the horizon while walking to the top of the tower. On the foot of the tower, you will be able to see 4 km into the distance, but from the top of the tower the view is expanded to an 18 km view into the horizon,” says Jakob Lange, Architect and Partner, BIG – Bjarke Ingels Group. “The stairs widen at the top of the tower, creating a 110 meter-squared lookout spot with views stretching to the city of Esbjerg, the Islands Rømø and Sylt, and beyond the Wadden Sea to the North Sea.”
BIG参与了瞭望塔的设计，作为与Marsk营地集团在当地合作的一部分，以创造一个体验式的目的地，从一个新的角度向全世界的游客展示独特的景观。瓦登海国家公园是世界上仅存的大规模潮间带生态系统之一，以其独特的海洋、沙丘、树林、石楠、动物和野生动物等自然环境而广为人知。
BIG worked on the design for the observation tower as part of a local partnership with Marsk Camp Group to create an experiential destination that presents the unique landscape from a new perspective to tourists all over the world. Wadden Sea National Park is one of the last remaining large-scale intertidal ecosystems in the world and is widely known for its unique natural environment of sea, dune, woods, heaths, fauna, and wildlife.
“马尔斯克塔是我们与Schacks Trapper的铁匠们长达二十年的友谊和合作的见证，”BIG – Bjarke Ingels Group的创始人兼创意总监Bjarke Ingels说。”双螺旋提供了两个楼梯和一个电梯，并有一叠旋转的钢制台阶，使游客可以在一个单一的螺旋循环中从沙地上升和下降到天空–连接沼泽地和瓦登海”。
“Marsk tower is a testament to our two-decades-long friendship and collaboration with the blacksmiths of Schacks Trapper,” says Bjarke Ingels, Founder and Creative Director, BIG – Bjarke Ingels Group. “The double helix provides two stairs and an elevator with a single stack of rotating steel steps, allowing visitors to ascend and descend in a single spiraling loop from the sand to the sky – connecting the marsh land to the Wadden Sea.”
