在数字时代,建筑已经成为一个具有广泛范围和影响力的全球交流工具。如今,建筑不再仅仅掌握在专家手中,而是利用其可触摸性和具体性,成为各个层面的一般文化的表达和辩论的集体论点。作为一个致力于360度传播建筑文化的殿堂,SET建筑事务所的装置PRESS BOX包含了由Mint LIST策划的一些国际出版物。

In the digital era, architecture has become a global communication tool with wide scope and reach. No longer resting solely in the hands of the experts, nowadays architecture draws on its tangibility and concreteness to become an expression of general culture at all levels and a collective argument for debates. As a temple devoted to 360-degree diffusion of architectural culture, PRESS BOX, the installation by SET Architects, encompasses a selection of international publications curated by Mint LIST.

这个盒子的设计是为了适应2017年9月24日至26日举行的国际建筑活动 “新生代节 “的阅读区,它在罗马Acquario Romano-Casa dell’Architettura的十八世纪框架内脱颖而出。街头报刊亭的原型被转化为一个轻质的网状结构,体现了网络的概念。

Designed to accommodate the reading area of the New Generations Festival, the international architecture event that took place from September 24th to 26th, 2017, the box stand out within the suggestive Eighteenth-century frame of the Acquario Romano-Casa dell’Architettura in Rome. The archetype of the street newsstand is translated into a lightweight reticular structure, which embodies the concept of networking.

由于其快速安装系统,4x4x4m的模块化结构被设计为可在4小时内完成组装。这些元素由经济实惠的建筑材料制成:从石膏板和50x55x50mm不锈钢C型的主框架和家具,到40x150x40mm不锈钢U型导向型材的货架和杂志支架。

Versatile and flexible, the 4x4x4m modular structure has been designed for assembly in under four hours thanks to its quick mounting system. The elements are made of affordable building materials: from the main framework and furnishing, in plasterboard and 50x55x50mm stainless steel C profiles, to shelves and magazine supports, in bent and shaped 40x150x40mm stainless steel U guide profiles.

为了在空间上和隐喻上填补编织,公众触手可及的杂志和书籍为框架带来了一致性。摆放在周边的出版物在构图中起着至关重要的作用,界定了PRESS BOX的立面,创造了真正的 “纸墙”。标题包括以下内容。AA出版社、Abitare、Actar、AR-Architetti Roma、Arquitectura Viva、Casabella、dérive、Domus、INTERNI、L’Architecture d’Aujourd’hui、Lars Müller Publishers、Living、NAi Publishers、OPENHOUSE、Phaidon、PLATFORM Architecture & Design、Real Review、Volume。

To fill the weave, spatially and metaphorically, magazines and books at the public’s fingertips, bring consistency to the framework. Displayed at the perimeter, publications play a crucial role in the composition, defining the elevations of PRESS BOX and creating real “paper walls”. Titles include the following: AA Publications, Abitare, Actar, AR-Architetti Roma, Arquitectura Viva, Casabella, dérive, Domus, INTERNI, L’Architecture d’Aujourd’hui, Lars Müller Publishers, Living, NAi Publishers, OPENHOUSE, Phaidon, PLATFORM Architecture & Design, Real Review, Volume.

为了完成这个装置,一个4×5毫米的白色衬垫网包裹着整个盒子,作为一个难以捉摸的面纱,呼吸着令人回味的透明游戏。这个既空灵又坚实的装置体现了信息传播,它在虚拟世界和物理世界之间,在印刷和数字媒体之间平行运行,借鉴了建筑话语的基础和共享知识的精神。

To complete the installation, a 4x5mm white liner mesh wraps around the entire box as an impalpable veil that breathes evocative transparency games. The installation, both ethereal and solid, embodies the information spread, which runs in parallel between the virtual and physical worlds, and across printed and digital media, drawing upon the foundations of the architectural discourse and the ethos of shared knowledge.
