牛津大学圣希尔达学院的校园已被重新设计,包括一个新的入口序列、周年纪念建筑和展馆,所有这些都设置在一个重新设计的景观中。周年纪念建筑界定了学院的边界,加强了考利广场的街景,并为学院内宁静的花园创造了围墙,而凉亭则依偎在这个青翠的河边的切威尔河的边缘。

The campus of St Hilda’s College in Oxford has been reworked to include a new entrance sequence, Anniversary Building and Pavilion, all set in a reimagined landscape. The Anniversary Building defines the boundary of the College, strengthens the street scene on Cowley Place, and creates enclosure to the tranquil gardens within the College, whilst the Pavilion nestles on the edge of the River Cherwell within this verdant riverside setting.

这些建筑的形式和布局与蜿蜒的河流本身产生了共鸣,并首次将学院的北部和南部地区连接起来。圣希尔达学院成立于1893年,学院所在地已经发展成为一个非正式的建筑序列,坐落在切威尔河畔的美丽花园中。戈特-斯科特–在2016年的国际设计竞赛后被任命–引入了空间上的一致性和更大的地方感,并将景观–圣希尔达的主要资产之一–带入学院的中心。以前的入口顺序是压倒性的和混乱的。大片的柏油路面和从街上走来的路程给人留下了服务性入口的印象,使学院如诗如画的环境的潜力受到影响。

The form and layout of these buildings resonate with the meandering river itself and for the first time connect the north and south parts of the College estate. St Hilda’s was founded in 1893 and the College site has evolved into an informal sequence of buildings set within beautiful gardens on the banks of the River Cherwell. Gort Scott – appointed following an international design competition in 2016 – introduced spatial coherence and a greater sense of place and brought the landscape – one of St Hilda’s prime assets – into the heart of the college. The previous entrance sequence was underwhelming and confusing. The large swathe of tarmac and the journey from the street created the impression of a service entrance that detracted from the potential of the College’s picturesque setting.

经过广泛的测试,戈特-斯科特发现,一个关键的举措对于实现学院的雄心壮志和创造一个更有联系和更有包容性的设计是至关重要的。通过拆除一个分割场地并对河流造成视觉障碍的小型住宅建筑,圣希尔达学院的整体体验得到了改善。新的亭子现在将校园固定在河边,在这个突出的位置,被设想为景观中的珠宝。这座建筑将用于教育和活动目的。在建筑上,它是一个更轻、更透明的结构,作为主楼坚固性的对立面而被人们看到。

After extensive testing, Gort Scott found that one key move would be fundamental to delivering the ambitions of the College and creating of a more connected and more inclusive design. By removing a small residential building that divided the site and created a visual barrier to the river; the entire experience of St Hilda’s is improved. The new pavilion now anchors the campus to the river, conceived as jewel-like within the landscape in this position of prominence and outlook. This building will be used for education and events purposes. Architecturally it is a lighter and more transparent structure to be seen in the round as a counterpoint to the solidity of the main building.

周年纪念建筑加强了位于两侧的现有建筑之间的关系,成为一条建筑带。作为一个群体,它们构成了振兴景观的背景,并朝向基督教堂草地河对面的 “借来的景观 “和其他地方。建筑物的形式和结构被设计成有助于控制内部气候,提供一个舒适的生活和工作场所,通过减少对加热或冷却的需求,受益于混凝土高热质量和自然通风。

The Anniversary Building reinforces the relationship between existing structures located on either side, to become a ribbon of buildings. As a group, they form a backdrop to the revitalized landscape and towards the ‘borrowed landscape’ across the river of Christ Church Meadows and beyond. The form and fabric of the building have been designed to inherently help to control internal climate, to provide a comfortable place in which to live and work, by reducing the demand for heating or cooling benefitting from concrete high thermal mass and natural ventilation.

现场的热电联产提供热水和电力。除了新的可识别的主入口和门房外,周年纪念大楼还包括行政和学术办公室、中层公共休息室和大约60间套间学习卧室。广阔的屋顶平台提供了更多的休闲空间,可以看到城市的天际线。

A CHP onsite provides hot water and electricity. Alongside the newly legible main entrance and Porter’s Lodge, the Anniversary Building accommodates administrative and academic offices, a Middle Common Room, and about 60 ensuite study bedrooms. An expansive planted roof terrace gives further amenity space with remarkable views across the city skyline.

虽然主要材料是砖,将这些新建筑与周围环境联系起来,但装饰性的细节,如周年纪念大楼顶层的扇形流苏,使建筑有了自己的特色,而预制混凝土部件和古铜色的金属制品提供了进一步的对比。戈特-斯科特对庄园内其他建筑的特点和特质进行了呼应和重新诠释。

While the predominant material is brick, linking these new additions to their surroundings, decorative detailing such as a scalloped frill to the top story of the Anniversary Building gives the building its own identity, while precast concrete components and bronze-colored metalwork provide further contrast. Gort Scott has echoed and reinterpreted characteristics and idiosyncrasies of other buildings in the estate.

周年纪念建筑包含了一个塔楼。从功能上讲,它提供了通往屋顶休闲平台和两个特殊的多功能房间的通道。这个结构的设计在高度和比例上都经过了仔细的斟酌,所以它很细长,但在牛津大学内为学院创造了一个方向性的标志和图腾,将圣希尔达学院置于更广泛的学院网络和大学本身之中。

The Anniversary Building incorporates a tower. Functionally, this gives access to the amenity roof terrace and two special multi-functional rooms. The design of this structure has been carefully gauged in its height and proportions, so that it is slender yet creates an orienting marker and totem for the College within Oxford, establishing St Hilda’s College within the wider network of Colleges and the University itself.
