Naidi村位于斐济瓦努阿-莱武岛,7年来一直没有社区会堂,因为他们以前的社区会堂年久失修,被认为不安全。在这之后,当地的一个非政府组织Naqaqa Giving Foundation找到了CAUKIN Studio,这个项目才得以实现。这个大厅为一个拥有400人和75户人家的村庄服务,其主要功能是为社区提供一个空间,让他们聚集在一起开会、庆祝、葬礼和婚礼。在斐济文化中,社区大厅是一个村庄的文化和运作中心。

Naidi village, located on Vanua Levu in Fiji, had been without a community hall for 7 years when their previous community hall fell into disrepair and was deemed unsafe for use. In the wake of this, the project came to fruition when a local NGO, the Naqaqa Giving Foundation approached CAUKIN Studio. Serving a village of 400 people and 75 households, the hall’s main function was to provide a space for the community to come together for meetings, celebrations, funerals, and weddings. In Fijian culture, the community hall is the cultural and operational heart of a village.

在社区的合作影响下,很快就意识到,这个建筑必须提供一个空间来唱歌、制作当地的手工工艺品和表演他们著名的 “Meke”–一种斐济传统舞蹈。CAUKIN工作室认为,拥有一个安全、实用、美丽的空间来表达自己的创意,对个人和社区的成长至关重要。

With the collaborative influence of the community, it quickly became clear that the building must provide a space to sing, create local handmade crafts and perform their famous ‘Meke’ – a traditional Fijian dance. CAUKIN Studio believes that having a safe, functioning, and beautiful space to express oneself creatively is vital to personal and community growth.

设计的形式来自于戏剧舞台,在其正面的外立面形成高潮,面向村庄绿地的中心。三扇大型的对重式上悬门,打开后形成了一个舞台,为村里的 “梅克 “表演提供了舞台。通过延伸的天花板高度,增加了整个建筑的自然空气流动,通过屋檐下的木质覆层释放出来。这使得空间在最炎热的日子里也能保持凉爽。开启的百叶窗、百叶叶片和大型玻璃板创造了一个自然采光的内部空间,增强了内部的表演和活动。该结构展示了创新的设计和抗飓风的能力,同时仍然只使用当地采购的材料,从而使该项目能够被斐济当地社区复制。该建筑的结构设计由Centrespace Design公司完成,该公司在过去4年中一直支持CAUKIN的工作。

The design takes its form from theatre staging, crescendoing at its front facade, facing towards the centre of the village green. Three large counter-weighted, top-hung doors, open to create a stage playing host to performances of the village ‘Meke’. Through the extended ceiling height, a natural flow of air throughout the building is increased, being released through hit-and-miss timber cladding under the roof eaves. This results in a space that can remain cool on the hottest days. The opening shutters, louvre blades and large panes of glass create a naturally lit space internally, enhancing performances and events taking place within. The structure demonstrates the innovative design and cyclone resistance whilst still using only locally sourced materials, thus allowing the project to be replicable by local communities in Fiji. The building’s structural design was carried out by Centrespace Design, who have supported CAUKIN’s work for the past 4 years.

项目建设历时8周,由20名来自建筑学校和实践的国际参与者组成的团队,与30多名当地工人一起工作。设计是在项目开始前6个月开始的合作过程的结果,在设计开发的每个阶段都有社区的参与。大部分的细节设计和正在进行的研究与项目建设同时进行,所有的参与者都与Naidi村的家庭生活在一起,通过文化的沉浸获得经验和知识。

The project construction took place over the course of 8 weeks, with a team of 20 international participants from architecture schools and practices, working alongside over 30 local workers. The design was the result of a collaborative process that began 6 months prior to the project start date and included input from the community at every stage of the design development. Much of the detailing and ongoing research happened concurrently with the project construction, with all participants living with the families of Naidi Village and gaining experience and knowledge through cultural immersion.

CAUKIN Studio与Naqaqa Giving Foundation的慈善机构The Jazmin Fund合作实现了这个项目。Jazmin基金由Jazmin Grace Grimaldi管理,帮助鼓励将表演艺术主题融入到大厅和设计中。该项目旨在创造一个空间,使奈迪社区能够创造性地表达自己的想法,同时提供一个足够坚固的结构,以便在未来发生任何自然灾害时,能够提供庇护。

CAUKIN Studio worked in partnership with The Jazmin Fund, a charitable arm of the Naqaqa Giving Foundation to realise the project. The Jazmin Fund, run by Jazmin Grace Grimaldi, helped encourage a performing arts theme to the hall and its design. The brief was to create a space that enabled the Naidi Community to express themselves creatively whilst providing a structure strong enough to take shelter – in the event of any future natural disasters.

自建成以来,大厅已经举办了当地的音乐会,每周三的艺术和手工艺讲习班,每天晚上的儿童阅读时间,以及婚礼和葬礼。由于新大厅吸引了更多的顾客,手工艺品销售商和妇女们的手工纪念品的销量也有所增加。近几个月来,该大厅已成为一所注册的幼儿园,每天有17名儿童入园。

Since completion, the hall has hosted local concerts, arts and crafts workshops every Wednesday, a reading hour every evening for the children as well as weddings and funerals. The handicraft salesmen and women have also recorded greater sales of their handmade souvenirs due to the new hall attracting more customers. In recent months the hall has become a registered kindergarten with 17 children in attendance every day.
