Architecture firm BIG has won a competition to design a village-like student centre for the Johns Hopkins research university in Baltimore, Maryland.
BIG came up with The Village design proposal for the Hopkins Student Center in response to an international design competition.
The winning scheme for the 150,000-square-foot (13,935-square-metre) building will provide a non-academic hub on the Homewood campus of the school, which was founded in 1876 as America’s first research university.
建築公司BIG贏得了一項競賽，為馬里蘭州巴爾的摩的約翰·霍普金斯研究大學設計了一個鄉村式學生中心。
為了響應國際設計競賽，BIG為霍普金斯大學學生中心提出了The Village設計方案。
這座150,000平方英尺（13,935平方米）的建築的獲獎計劃將在學校的Homewood校園中提供一個非學術中心，該校園始建於1876年，是美國第一所研究型大學。
It will comprise a cluster of flat-roofed, timber volumes that will host a range of activities like relaxation, performing arts and dining, all stacked along a sloped site. These will also open to the outdoors to complete the arrangement BIG likens to a village.
“We have attempted to imagine and design the Campus Center like a village condensed from a plethora of different spaces and pavilions for the greatest possible diversity of activities, interests and sub-cultures,” said BIG founder Bjarke Ingels.
它將包括一簇屋頂扁平的木材，將用於一系列活動，例如放鬆，表演藝術和就餐，所有這些活動都沿著傾斜的場地堆積。 這些也將向戶外開放，以完成BIG比喻為村莊的安排。
BIG創始人Bjarke Ingels說：“我們試圖將校園中心想像和設計為一個村莊，村莊由眾多不同的空間和涼亭凝聚而成，以最大程度地實現活動，興趣和亞文化的多樣性。”
The Village will be built at the intersection of 33rd Street and Charles Street, which runs through Baltimore and cuts between the school campus and Charles Village neighbourhood where 3,500 students live.
With this location, it is intended to provide a new link between the school and the surrounding city and become a main hub.
該村將建在第33街和查爾斯街的交匯處，該街貫穿巴爾的摩，並在學校校園和查爾斯村附近（居住著3500名學生的地方）之間切開。
借助此位置，它旨在在學校與周圍城市之間建立新的鏈接，並成為主要的樞紐。
“Often the greatest ideas and breakthroughs occur away from the desk, when minds have a chance to wander, to play, to riff with others,” said BIG partner Leon Rost.
“The new Hopkins Student Center is designed to provoke the sometimes-necessary distractions that complement rigorous academic life – a place for a future generation of Salks, Curies, and Cricks to unlock their next great discovery.”
BIG合夥人萊恩·羅斯特（Leon Rost）表示：“最偉大的想法和突破通常發生在桌面之外，這時人們就有機會漫步，玩耍，與他人嬉戲。”
“新的霍普金斯大學學生中心旨在引起有時需要的干擾，以補充嚴格的學術生活，這是下一代薩爾克斯（Salks），居里夫人（Curies）和克里克（Cricks）解鎖下一個偉大發現的地方。”
The volumes will be mass timber and topped with photovoltaic panels. These design choices were made to help meet the university’s goals for sustainability.
While the exterior is fragmented, the inside will form open-plan, flexible layouts for facilities such as student resources and support services, lounges, a digital media centre, a performance space with seating for 200 people and a dynamic dining hall.
These will be linked to the public outdoor spaces including the entry plaza at 33rd street, a new food market and plaza to the south and an events-focused commons.
“This will be a new kind of space for us – one that is not academically focused, but entirely social by design, open to all, reserved for none, and boasting the kind of flexible spaces that invite connection and collaboration, this will be a place where athletes and actors, step teams and SGA members can gather side by side,” said Johns Hopkins University president Ronald J Daniels.
體積將是大量木材，並在頂部加上光伏板。 這些設計選擇是為了幫助實現大學的可持續發展目標。
儘管外部空間是零散的，但內部空間將形成開放式的靈活佈局，以佈置設施，例如學生資源和支持服務，休息室，數字媒體中心，可容納200人的表演場所和動態餐廳。
這些將與公共室外空間相關聯，包括第33街的入口廣場，南部的新食品市場和廣場以及以活動為中心的公共場所。
“對於我們來說，這將是一種新型的空間-一個不以學術為中心的空間，而是完全按設計的社會化模式，對所有人開放，不容保留，並擁有一種靈活的空間，可以邀請人們聯繫和協作，這將是一個新的空間。 運動員和演員，踏板隊和SGA成員可以並排聚集的地方。”約翰·霍普金斯大學校長羅納德·J·丹尼爾斯說。
In order to connect the new building to the existing campus, red-brick pathways like those on the school campus will run throughout its interior.
Organised by a special advisory committee, the Hopkins Student Center involved the school’s students and student affairs staff in the selection. BIG’s proposal was one of four shortlisted for the project and evaluated by over 1,200 students, faculty, staff and alumni in a survey.
為了將新建築物連接到現有校園，像紅磚砌成的通道將貫穿整個校園。
霍普金斯大學學生中心由專門的諮詢委員會組織，由學校的學生和學生事務人員參與選拔。 BIG的提案是該項目的四個入圍者之一，並由1200多名學生，教職員工和校友在調查中進行了評估。
BIG is collaborating on the project with Rockwell Group for interior design and Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates for landscape design. US firm Shepley Bulfinch will serve as Architect of Record. The project is slated for completion in 2024.
Founded by Ingels in 2005, BIG has recently completed two other academic buildings in the United States. They include a Massachusetts university building with “domino effect” copper walls and a twisted, white-brick and glass school building in Virginia.

BIG正在與羅克韋爾集團（Rockwell Group）進行室內設計，與Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates進行景觀設計合作。 美國公司Shepley Bulfinch將擔任唱片設計師。 該項目計劃於2024年完成。
BIG由英格斯（Ingels）於2005年創立，最近又在美國完成了另外兩座學術大樓。 它們包括馬薩諸塞州的一所大學建築，該建築帶有“多米諾骨牌效應”銅牆，以及弗吉尼亞州扭曲的白磚玻璃建築。
