Dutch architecture practice UNStudio has collaborated with the Qatar Rail Architecture Department to create 37 stations for the driverless Doha Metro system, which has opened in Qatar.

Consisting of three lines that radiate out from the Msheireb station in the downtown area of Qatar’s capital city, the stations on the driverless metro system are united by a design language created by UNStudio and the Qatar Rail Architecture Department.

Aiming to be modern, but reflect the city’s history, the stations are all designed to be vaulted spaces.

荷蘭建築實踐UNStudio已與卡塔爾鐵路建築部門合作,為卡塔爾開放的無人駕駛多哈地鐵系統創建了37個車站。

卡塔爾首都市區的Msheireb站輻射出三條線,無人駕駛地鐵系統上的站由UNStudio和卡塔爾鐵路建築部創建的設計語言結合在一起。

為了實現現代性,但又反映城市的歷史,車站均設計為拱形空間。

“It was important that the design represent both modernisation and preservation,” UNStudio told Dezeen.

“The challenge was to reference local, traditional architectural heritage, while reinterpreting this into a contemporary design language that represents Qatar today,” it continued.

“The vault was chosen as this referential bridge between past and present.”

UNStudio對Dezeen表示:“設計既要代表現代化又要保留,這一點很重要。”

它繼續說道:“挑戰在於參考當地傳統建築遺產,同時將其重新詮釋為代表卡塔爾的當代設計語言。”

“金庫被選為過去和現在之間的參照橋樑。”

Each of the stations was built from parametrically designed, curved modular elements that can be assembled on a triangular grid so that the structure could be adapted for each station’s location, size and capacity.

UNStudio and Qatar Rail Architecture Department outlined the form and arrangement of these modular elements, along with numerous details including interior finishes, layouts, wayfinding and furniture, in an extensive design manual that was then used by the contractors to ensure a consistent design language was maintained across all 37 stations.

每個站點均由參數化設計的彎曲模塊化元素構建而成,這些元素可以組裝在三角形網格上,從而使結構可以適應每個站點的位置,大小和容量。

UNStudio和卡塔爾鐵路建築部在廣泛的設計手冊中概述了這些模塊化元素的形式和安排,以及包括室內裝飾,佈局,尋路和家具在內的眾多細節,承包商隨後使用這些手冊來確保保持一致的設計語言 在所有37個電台中

“Through the production of a design manual and with the use of adaptive parametric design, it has been possible to create a design with many variants, yet one which maintains a coherent identity throughout all of the stations,” said UNStudio founder Ben van Berkel.

“In this way, we can combine local contextual differences within an overall identity and parametrically adapt physical factors such as wayfinding, daylight penetration, passenger flows and constructive elements in a complex but extremely disciplined system.”

UNStudio創始人本·範·伯克爾(Ben van Berkel)表示:“通過製作設計手冊並使用自適應參數設計,可以創建具有多種變體的設計,而該變體在所有站點中都保持一致的標識。”

“通過這種方式,我們可以將整體環境中的局部語境差異結合在一起,並在復雜但嚴格控制的系統中以參數方式適應物理因素,例如尋路,日光穿透,客流和建設性要素。”

The modular system was used to create large, open entrance halls for the stations, which was part of the architects’ strategy to create welcoming spaces that celebrate public transport.

“The celebration of arriving and departing has always been found in the design of stations,” said Van Berkel.

“For the Doha Metro network we devised an adaptive parametric system which creates open, light and welcoming interiors for each of the individual stations. Traditional Qatari architectural features are reinterpreted to incorporate new, transformative qualities which capture daylight and direct this into the interiors, creating uplifting and luminous atmospheres.”

模塊化系統用於為車站創建大型開放式入口大廳,這是建築師創建慶祝公共交通的宜人空間策略的一部分。

範·伯克爾說:“在車站的設計中總能找到到達和離開的慶祝活動。”

“對於多哈地鐵網絡,我們設計了一個自適應參數係統,可以為每個獨立車站創建開放,明亮和溫馨的室內。重新詮釋了傳統的卡塔爾建築特色,融合了新的,可轉化的品質,可以捕捉日光並將其引入室內,從而創造出 令人愉悅的氣氛。”

Hexagon-shaped tiles that give a multi-coloured mother of pearl-effect were used to clad the structural arched elements to make them distinct from the other surfaces that are clad in more modest materials.

Throughout the network the interiors were slightly adapted to differentiate the three lines in the system, as well as the fourth line that is currently under construction.

六角形的瓷磚具有多色的珍珠效果,被用來包覆結構的拱形元素,以使其與其他採用較普通材料包覆的表面區別開來。

在整個網絡中,內部進行了些微調整,以區分系統中的三條線以及正在建設中的第四條線。

“Whilst the structural elements ensure the overall consistency of the network, the system also enables variety, as this is also necessary for the branding of the individual lines and the identity of the individual stations.” said UNStudio.

“The identities of the different metro lines are achieved by varying the materials, colours and details, while the station identities focus on different content that relates to their specific locations.”

“儘管結構要素確保了網絡的整體一致性,但該系統還可以實現變化,因為這對於各個線路的品牌和各個站點的標識也是必需的。” UNStudio說。

“不同地鐵線路的標識是通過改變材料,顏色和細節來實現的,而車站標識則關注與特定位置相關的不同內容。”

Externally the parametrically-designed arched forms create distinctive structures that will allow travellers to easily identify and find the stations.

“These were roadside inns along ancient trade routes, where travelers, or ‘caravaners’, stopped off along their journeys,” said UNStudio.

“The Doha Metro stations were designed to reference this idea of creating a place, rather than merely a highly efficient node.”

從外部進行參數設計的拱形形式創建了獨特的結構,使旅行者可以輕鬆識別並找到車站。

UNStudio說:“這些都是沿古老貿易路線的路邊旅館,旅行者或大篷車在旅途中停下來。”

“多哈地鐵站旨在參考創建地點的想法,而不僅僅是高效的節點。”

“We are going to move differently in the future,” added Van Berkel.

“Mobility is changing fast, from the introduction of autonomous vehicles to urban cable cars and the Hyperloop. The mobility hubs of the future have to respond to and cater to these changes,” he continued.

“In order to encourage the use of more sustainable forms of transport, these stations not only have to ensure smooth passenger flows, but they need to truly appeal to the public; to be places they want to visit and return to.”

Van Berkel補充說:“未來我們將採取不同的行動。”

他繼續說:“從無人駕駛汽車的引入到城市纜車和Hyperloop,移動性正在快速變化。未來的移動性樞紐必須響應並適應這些變化。”

“為了鼓勵使用更可持續的運輸方式,這些車站不僅必須確保客流暢通,而且還需要真正吸引公眾;成為他們要參觀並返回的地方。”

The Doha Metro system has been built ahead of the FIFA 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Many of the stations will be used by spectators during the tournament including the Lusail station next to Lusail Stadium, which is being designed by Foster + Partners and Education City station, which is close to the Fenwick-Iribarren Architects and Pattern Design’s Education City Stadium.
