与欧洲许多以前的工业港区一样，美因茨的佐尔哈芬正在经历一场转型，成为一个现代化的城市街区。位于该市莱茵河西岸诺伊施塔特区的东北部，这个前航运集装箱港口将被改造成一个集生活、工作和休闲设施于一体的城市组合，这一重大的城市改造将成为该市近期历史上最重要的再生项目之一。ZigZag是这个大规模改造的先锋项目之一。
Like many of Europe’s formerly industrial harbor areas, Mainz’s Zollhafen is undergoing a transformation into a modern city quarter. Located northeast of the city’s Neustadt district on the west bank of the river Rhine, the former shipping container harbor will be converted into an urban mix of living, working, and leisure facilities, a significant urban transformation that will be one of the most important regeneration projects in the city’s recent history. ZigZag is one of the pioneer projects in this large-scale transformation.
这座4600平方米的建筑是港口盆地北端的决定性特征；位于新更名的鹿特丹广场上，它向新的海滨广场开放，同时作为新城区和更北面的剩余工业区之间的噪音缓冲区。为了进一步减少对新住宅区的噪音影响，该设计有一个额外的隔音墙，由一个带有玻璃板填充的钢架组成，横跨在ZigZag和其邻居之间。
The 4,600m2 building is the defining feature at the northern end of the harbor basin; located on the newly renamed Rotterdamer Platz, it opens onto the new waterfront square while acting as a noise buffer between the new urban quarter and the remaining industrial zone further to the north. To further reduce the noise impact on the new housing blocks, the design features an additional soundproof wall, consisting of a steel frame with glass panel infills that spans between ZigZag and its neighbors.
六层楼的外墙采用了亚光银涂层铝板的 “折叠皮肤”，以回应佐尔哈芬地区的城市框架。这些元素的深度使外部遮阳板得以整合，并减少眩光。银色包层的光线反射强调了三维视觉效果，加强了建筑的雕塑感。在底层，”之 “字形的外墙向内变细，提供了额外的户外空间，并开辟了宽敞的视线和从街道到水边的路径。
The façade of the six-story building features a ”folded skin” of matt-silver coated aluminum panels, responding to the urban framework for the Zollhafen area. The depth of the elements allows external sunshades to be integrated and reduces glare. Light reflections from the silvery cladding emphasize the 3D visual effect to reinforce the sculptural impression of the building. On the ground floor, the zig-zagging façade tapers inward, providing extra outdoor space and opening up generous sightlines and pathways from the street to the water’s edge.
内部可以容纳多个租户；人们将通过一楼的两个独立的大厅进入ZigZag，这里也是滨水区的餐饮区。从二楼到五楼的大型开放空间让租户在装修办公室时有最大的灵活性，可以实现从独立办公室到开放空间的各种解决方案。大楼采用了现代的、面向未来的办公功能，如智能手机控制的照明和温度水平，同时整个大楼都采用了无线解决方案。
The interior can accommodate multiple tenants; people will access ZigZag via two independent lobbies on the ground floor, which also hosts a catering area on the waterfront. From the second to fifth floor large, open spaces allow tenants the maximum possible flexibility in fitting out their offices, enabling everything from individual offices to open space solutions. The building incorporates modern, future-oriented office features such as smartphone-controlled lighting and temperature levels, while wireless solutions have been included throughout the building.
