Architecture studio Cobe has revealed two charging stations for electric cars in Denmark, which have timber structures designed to create a “restful and Zen-like feel”.

Completed as the first of a network of 48 charging stations being built along Scandinavian highways, the structures were designed from natural materials to create a different experience than in traditional petrol stations.

“When designing the project we first looked at traditional gas stations – characterised by noise, odour and bright commercial neon signs,” Cobe founder Dan Stubbergaard told Dezeen.

“Then we asked ourselves, ‘what would a charging station for EVs[electric vehicles] look like, using only natural materials, natural daylight, and designing it to recharge the batteries of both vehicles and drivers?'”

建築工作室Cobe在丹麥透露了兩個電動汽車充電站,這些充電站的木質結構旨在營造一種“寧靜而又像禪宗的感覺”。

作為沿著斯堪的納維亞高速公路建造的48個充電站網絡中的第一個,該結構採用天然材料設計,以創造與傳統加油站不同的體驗。

“在設計項目時,我們首先考察了傳統的加油站,這些加油站具有噪音,氣味和明亮的商業霓虹燈招牌,” Cobe創始人Dan Stubbergaard告訴Dezeen。

“然後,我們問自己,’僅使用天然材料,自然日光,並將其設計為可為車輛和駕駛員的電池充電的電動汽車(電動汽車)充電站會是什麼樣?”

The charging stations in the cities of Fredericia and Knudshoved in central Denmark were both built using the same modular, timber tree-like structure.

In Fredericia, the shelter covering the charging station was made from 12 connected trees supporting a large roof, while in Knudshoved two independent trees cover the pumps.

丹麥中部的腓特烈西亞(Fredericia)和克努德霍維德(Knudshoved)兩個城市的充電站均使用相同的模塊化,木樹狀結構建造。

在腓特烈西亞(Fredericia),覆蓋充電站的避難所由12棵相連的樹木支撐,支撐著一個大屋頂,而在努德推德(Knudshoved),兩棵獨立的樹木覆蓋了泵。

Cobe’s charging stations resemble the forms of petrol stations due to the fact they perform a similar function, however, the studio wanted the architecture to represent the more sustainable nature of electric transport.

“The energy and the technology are green, so we wanted the architecture, the materials and the concept to reflect that,” said Stubbergaard.

“What if a charging station could have reminiscences of a tree crown that filters light and offers shade? The design concept consists of an assembly set of canopies, each symbolising a tree – with a ‘trunk’ and a ‘crown’. The ‘trees’ can be free-standing or assembled into a ‘grove’.”

由於Cobe的充電站執行類似的功能,因此它們類似於加油站的形式,但是,錄音室希望該架構代表更可持續的電力運輸性質。

Stubbergaard說:“能源和技術是綠色的,因此我們希望建築,材料和概念能夠反映這一點。”

“如果充電站能夠讓人想起可以過濾光線並提供陰影的樹冠,該怎麼辦?設計概念包括一組簷篷,每個簷篷都像徵著一棵樹–帶有“樹幹”和“皇冠”。 可以獨立放置,也可以組裝成“樹林”。

To create this more natural environment Cobe create a modular system of timber components that could be adapted to numerous site and easily assembled, demounted, upcycled and reused.

Along with creating a timber structure, the studio added trees, grass and planting into the station, which is also topped with a green sedum roof.

為了創造一個更自然的環境,科比創建了一個模塊化的木材組件系統,該系統可以適應眾多場所,並易於組裝,拆卸,升級和再利用。

除了創建木材結構外,工作室還為車站添加了樹木,草木和植物,頂部還配有綠色的景天屋頂。

“We decided from early on to reject artificial materials, poisonous paint and lacquer, and asphalt, in favour of natural and honest materials,” said Stubbergaard.

“We wanted to create a green structure, that matches the green energy. Therefore, the station canopy is built in certified wood,” he continued.

“Timber is the only renewable building material that actually absorbs CO2. At the same time, timber has a warmth and tactile quality that is lacking in today’s infrastructural environments.”

Stubbergaard說:“我們從一開始就決定拒絕使用人造材料,有毒的油漆和清漆以及瀝青,而使用天然和誠實的材料。”

他繼續說:“我們想創造一個與綠色能源相匹配的綠色結構。因此,車站的頂篷是用經過認證的木材建造的。”

“木材是唯一能真正吸收二氧化碳的可再生建築材料。同時,木材具有當今基礎設施環境所缺乏的溫暖和触感。”

Creating a pleasant place to spend time was a core concern as charging an electric car takes much longer than filling up a vehicle with petrol.

“We wanted to create a meaningful mental break for people to recharge their own batteries when they are on the move – a non-commercial green space with a pleasant, restful and Zen-like feel, where you can pick your own strawberries while your kids play by the swing,” added Stubbergaard.

創造一個愉快的消磨時間是一個核心問題,因為電動汽車的充電要比用汽油填充汽車花費的時間長得多。

“我們希望為人們創造一個有意義的精神休息時間,讓他們在旅途中為自己的電池充電–非商業性的綠色空間,具有令人愉悅,寧靜和類似禪宗的感覺,您可以在孩子時期自行採摘草莓 揮桿揮桿,” Stubbergaard補充道。

Cobe is an architectural firm based in Copenhagen, which was founded in 2006 by Stubbergaard. Recently in the city, the studio has completed a wedge-shaped library for a school, an elevated Metro station and an undulating public square.
