Architecture studio Adjaye Associates has revealed its design for a new art gallery at Princeton University that will have numerous entrances to connect it to the campus.
Adjaye Associates, working with Cooper Robertson as executive architect, has designed a series of pavilions wrapped in bands of alternating rough and polished stone for the art gallery.
The new building will replace the existing 1920s, 1960s and 80s structures and double the size of the Princeton University Art Museum.
建築工作室Adjaye Associates透露了其在普林斯頓大學新美術館的設計，該美術館將有許多入口將其連接至校園。
Adjaye Associates與庫珀·羅伯遜（Cooper Robertson）擔任執行建築師，為美術館設計了一系列由交替的粗糙和拋光石材包裹的涼亭。
新建築將取代現有的1920年代，1960年代和80年代的結構，並使普林斯頓大學美術館的規模擴大一倍。
It will contain nine galleries and two large entrance halls in cuboid boxes wrapped around the McCormick Hall, which contains the Marquand Library and will be retained.
The majority of the gallery space will be raised up onto the first floor, with the ground floor given over to access routes across the site and public spaces to create a “campus within a campus”.
它將包含九個畫廊和兩個長方體包裝的入口大廳，長方體盒子環繞著麥考密克大廳，該大廳包含Marquand圖書館並將保留。
畫廊的大部分空間都將被抬高到二樓，而一樓則被分配給穿過場地和公共空間的通道，以創建一個“校園內的校園”。
“The ground floor is designed to work with the campus’s pre-existing paths and networks,” said Adjaye Associates founder David Adjaye.
“We envisage it as a space that can be open 24 hours to students whilst the museum operates with its own time schedule above it,” he told Dezeen.
Adjaye Associates創始人David Adjaye表示：“底層旨在與校園現有的路徑和網絡配合使用。”
他對Dezeen表示：“我們設想它是一個可以向學生開放24小時的空間，而博物館在上面有自己的時間表。”
Adjaye Associates placed the galleries in a series of interlocking cubes to break down the scale of the museum and allow the collection’s varied items to be displayed.
“The nine cubes create an eroded perimeter that dissolves the block and starts to correspond to the architecture and landscape of the site through its bars and volumes,” said Adjaye.
“It allows people to meander and experience the different facets of the collections and exhibitions.”
Alongside these galleries will be two large spaces called the Grand Hall, which will be used as a lecture hall and performance space, and the Grand Stair that is the main access to the gallery level.
“Between these pavilions are what we call the ‘in-between galleries’, which provides alternative moments for the collections to be displayed and changed over time,” explained Adjaye.
Adjaye Associates將畫廊放置在一系列互鎖的立方體中，以分解博物館的規模，並允許展示藏品的各種物品。
Adjaye說：“這九個立方體形成了一個侵蝕的邊界，該邊界將塊溶解，並開始通過其條形和體積與場地的建築和景觀相對應。”
“它使人們可以蜿蜒並體驗藏品和展覽的不同方面。”
這些畫廊旁邊將是兩個大空間，稱為大禮堂，將用作演講廳和表演空間，而大樓梯則是進入畫廊層的主要通道。
阿賈耶解釋說：“在這些展館之間，我們稱之為“畫廊之間”，為收藏品的展示和隨時間變化提供了替代性的時刻。
Adjaye Associates created a series of views out from the galleries to help tie the building to the campus.
“This is a museum that is both romantic and porous through a series of very specific framed views,” said Adjaye.
“Numerous bronze and glass ‘lenses’ are positioned between the pavilions to shape framed glimpses into the Museum and extraordinary vistas out onto the Princeton campus,” he continued.
“Each one of these windows has its own character which refers to its view out. There is a kind of archway effect that emphasizes the landscapes of the campus.”
Adjaye Associates從畫廊創建了一系列視圖，以幫助將建築物與校園聯繫起來。
阿賈耶說：“通過一系列非常具體的框架景觀，這是一個浪漫而又多變的博物館。”
他繼續說：“大量的青銅和玻璃“鏡片”被放置在展館之間，以形成瞥見博物館的框架輪廓和普林斯頓校園的非凡景觀。”
“這些窗戶中的每一個都有自己的特徵，可以看到外面的景色。有一種拱門效應，強調了校園的景觀。”
In total, the museum will have six ground-floor entrances, which not only helps to make it accessible from all directions but, according to the studio, mitigates the impact of future pandemics.
“One of the big things about large-scale museums is that people arrive and depart from the same entry,” said Adjaye.
“To mitigate clustering and to ease movement flows, the provision of multiple entrances and exits is incredibly important. The way in which the sequence works is that we’re able to very easily make a one-way system out of the museum.”
總體而言，該博物館將有六個地下入口，這不僅有助於從各個方向進入博物館，而且還減輕了未來大流行的影響。
阿賈耶說：“大型博物館的一大特點是人們可以從同一入口進出。”
“為減輕聚類和減輕人員流動，提供多個入口和出口非常重要。此序列的工作方式是，我們能夠非常輕鬆地從博物館中製作出單向系統。”
Above the gallery floor, on the second level, the museum will have a cafe and outdoor terrace, as well as offices for the museum and the art and archaeology department.
Construction of Princeton University Art Museum is set to begin in 2021 with an opening scheduled for 2024.
British-Ghanaian architect Adjaye’s firm has already completed several cultural projects in the US, including the National Museum of African American Culture and History in Washington DC, Manhattan’s Spy Museum and the Ruby City art centre in Texas.
博物館在二樓的美術館地板上方，將有一個咖啡館和室外露台，以及博物館和藝術與考古部門的辦公室。
普林斯頓大學藝術博物館的建設計劃於2021年開始，計劃於2024年開放。
英國加納建築師Adjaye的事務所已經在美國完成了多個文化項目，包括位於華盛頓特區的國家非裔美國人文化和歷史博物館，曼哈頓的間諜博物館以及德克薩斯州的紅寶石城藝術中心。
