像许多海湾城市一样,多哈最近的飞速发展导致其城市足迹在汽车的推动下急剧扩大。这个进步的项目旨在通过创造一个密集的、适合步行的社区,将自然冷却的街道按照人的尺度编织在一起,从而改变这种旅行方向。在城市的中心,有100多座建筑,每座建筑都很独特,但都表达了植根于当地文化和气候的共同建筑语言。

Like many Gulf cities, Doha’s recent meteoric growth has resulted in a dramatic expansion of its urban footprint fueled by the automobile. This progressive project aims to change this direction of travel by creating a dense, walkable neighbourhood knit together by naturally cooled streets built at a human scale. Set in the heart of the city, there are more than 100 buildings, each distinct yet all expressing a shared architectural language rooted in the local culture and climate.

在多哈的中心,Msheireb占据了历史悠久的Souq以西和皇家权力所在地Diwan以南的关键位置。多哈新的地铁系统中最大的一个站点是一个锚,提供与城市其他地区和机场的无车连接。城市结构是紧密的、紧凑的城市街区。有一种当代的 “卡塔尔 “建筑语言,确定了这个地方的特征。新建筑的乡土方法赋予了这种地理环境独特的身份感–一个属于自己的地方。建筑物的安排是非正式的,体现了伊斯兰城市的特质,建筑物的形式、柱廊的使用和悬挑都有助于在这种炎热的气候下行走,使人感到舒适。

At the heart of Doha, Msheireb occupies a key location west of the historic Souq and south of the Diwan, the seat of royal power. One of the largest stations in Doha’s new metro system is an anchor, providing car-free connections to the rest of the city and the airport. The urban structure is of tightknit, compact urban blocks. There is a contemporary ‘Qatari’ architectural language that defines the character of the place. A vernacular approach to new architecture imparts a sense of identity unique to this geography – a place of its place. Buildings are arranged informally, embodying the qualities of the Islamic city with the form of buildings, the use of colonnades, and overhangs all helping to make walking in this hot climate comfortable.

紧凑的城市形式允许相对较高的人口密度,并减少对汽车的依赖性。遮阳的街道、活跃的屋顶、庭院和露台以及深层的外墙的整合,都最大限度地减少了刺眼阳光的影响,与自然通风和建筑系统相结合,既产生了内部的舒适性,又最大限度地减少了能源的使用。所有建筑的设计都符合LEED铂金或黄金标准,是世界上此类建筑最集中的地方。到目前为止,整个项目有53个白金认证的项目。一个全场四层的地下室可用于送货、停车和服务,而在地面上,有一个免费的轻轨电车系统。

The compact urban form allows for relatively high densities and reduces reliance on automobiles. The integration of shaded streets, active rooftops, courtyards and terraces, and deep, layered facades all minimise the impact of harsh sunlight, which in combination with natural ventilation and building systems, yield both internal comfort and minimise energy use. All buildings are designed to meet LEED Platinum or Gold, the highest concentration of such buildings on one site in the world. So far, there are 53 Platinum-certified projects across the development. A sitewide four-level basement allows for deliveries, car parking, and servicing, and above ground, there is a free-of-charge light rail tram system.

这是一个超越单个建筑、集群或园区规模的项目,以创造一个连贯的城市片区。我们的目标是向过去学习,建立一个经得起时间考验的现代场所,并通过创造一个吸引本地和国际游客、居民和公司的城市核心,支持卡塔尔向后石油经济的过渡。在最近的建筑史上,很少有如此规模和雄心勃勃的项目–从总体规划概念到细节执行–被建造。该项目是在谢哈-莫扎-宾特-纳赛尔的领导下构思的,希望在一个经常选择更多形式的城市扩张的地区提供另一种形式的城市生活。

This is a project that looks beyond the scale of an individual building, cluster or campus, to create a coherent piece of the city. The goal has been to learn from the past to build a contemporary place that can stand the test of time and to support Qatar’s transition to a post-oil economy by creating an attractive urban core that can be a magnet for both local and international visitors, residents and companies. Rare has a project of such scale and ambition – from masterplan concept to execution in detail – been built in the recent history of architecture. The project, which was conceived under the leadership of Sheikha Moza bint Nasser, aspires to offer an alternative form of urban living in a region that has often opted for hastier forms of urban expansion.

总体规划团队由Arup(首席顾问)和AECOM组成,Allies and Morrison担任整个项目的 “建筑代言人”,同时也是30个单独建筑的设计建筑师。此外,还与另外八个设计建筑师进行了广泛的合作。Mossessian Architecture, John McAslan + Partners, Adjaye Associates, Squire & Partners, Gensler, Eric Parry Architects, HOK, and Mangera Yvars。

The masterplan team comprised Arup (lead consultant) and AECOM with Allies and Morrison holding the role as sitewide ‘architectural voice’ as well as design architect of thirty of the individual buildings. There was extensive collaboration with eight more design architects: Mossessian Architecture, John McAslan + Partners, Adjaye Associates, Squire & Partners, Gensler, Eric Parry Architects, HOK, and Mangera Yvars.
