Architecture studio Atelier-r has added a series of Corten steel bridges and platforms to provide tourist access to the ruins of Helfštýn castle in the east of the Czech Republic.
The studio carried out the major renovation of the visitor attraction, which is the second-largest castle complex in the Czech Republic after its deteriorating state had forced parts of the building to be closed to the public.
建築工作室Atelier-r添加了一系列的Corten鋼橋和平台，以使遊客可以進入捷克共和國東部的Helfštýn城堡遺址。
該工作室對遊客景點進行了大修，這是捷克共和國第二大的城堡建築，此前它的惡化狀態迫使該建築的一部分向公眾關閉。
The majority of work was carried out on the castle’s keep, which its owners and Czech Republic’s national heritage institute wanted to be preserved as a ruin.
Atelier-r created a series of glass roofs that sit below the original walls so they can not be seen from outside the building to enclose some of the rooms.
大部分工作都在城堡的城堡上進行，城堡的主人和捷克共和國的國家遺產研究所希望將其保存為廢墟。
Atelier-r創建了一系列玻璃屋頂，這些玻璃屋頂位於原始牆壁下方，因此無法從建築物外部看到它們來封閉一些房間。
“Our team strived to complement the historical building with the contemporary architecture that would fit the purpose and focus on both practical use as well as gaining an aesthetic appeal,” said Atelier-r’s principal architect Miroslav Pospíšil.
“We aspired to go beyond the core task of creating a suitable roof solution because we wanted to involve the visitors in the historical development of the palace,” Pospíšil told Dezeen.
“This intention sparked a great idea of incorporating the contemporary architectural elements into the historical building and connecting the existing ground floor with the newly accessible higher levels of the palace.”
Atelier-r的首席建築師MiroslavPospíšil說：“我們的團隊努力用適合目的的當代建築來補充歷史建築，同時注重實用性並獲得美學吸引力。”
Pospíšil告訴Dezeen：“我們希望超越創造合適屋頂解決方案的核心任務，因為我們希望讓遊客參與宮殿的歷史發展。”
“這一意圖激發了一個將現代建築元素納入歷史建築並將現有底層與宮殿的新近可及高度相連的好主意。”
Along with the new roofs, the studio added various stairs, bridges and platforms, all made from Corten steel, to create a visitor route through the ruins.
The weathering steel elements allow visitors to see the upper levels of the castle that were previously inaccessible, with bridges passing through rooms and passages built alongside the battlements.
除了新的屋頂外，工作室還增加了各種樓梯，橋樑和平台，這些樓梯，橋樑和平台都是用科騰鋼製成的，從而創造了一條穿越廢墟的遊客路線。
耐候的鋼製元素使遊客可以看到以前無法到達的城堡的高層，橋通過房間和與城垛並排的通道。
Atelier-r chose to use the orange Corten steel so that the additions made to the ruin would be clearly identifiable.
“We believe that easily readable architecture is honest and that is important for us,” said Pospíšil. “Therefore, we wanted to acknowledge and accentuate the contrast between the historical building and modern elements.”
Atelier-r選擇使用橙色的Corten鋼，以便可以清楚地識別出廢墟上的添加物。
Pospíšil說：“我們相信易於閱讀的架構是誠實的，這對我們很重要。” “因此，我們希望承認並強調歷史建築與現代元素之間的對比。”
“Our concept draws from the respect towards the historical building and it pursues a major effort to preserve the castle’s authentic character,” Pospíšil continued.
“New contemporary elements do not compete with the historical building, rather they create a cohesive unit in which all the elements, old and new go hand in hand.”
Pospíšil繼續說道：“我們的理念是從尊重歷史建築的角度出發，它為保留城堡的真實特色而付出了巨大的努力。”
“新的當代元素不能與歷史建築相抗衡，相反，它們創建了一個凝聚的單元，所有新舊元素並存。
The studio also believes that Cortenl was an appropriate material due to the castle’s history of ironworking and the way it weathers over time.
“It was crucial to choose a material that would be timeless,” explained Pospíšil. “Corten is a special alloy that undergoes corrosion, matures and matches the texture of the old historical walls.
“Moreover, Helfštýn Castle is well-renowned for its iron craftsmanship tradition, therefore it made a perfect sense to choose Corten to work with.”
該工作室還認為，由於城堡的煉鐵歷史以及隨著時間的流逝，Cortenl是一種合適的材料。
Pospíšil解釋說：“選擇一種永不過時的材料至關重要。” “ Corten是一種特殊的合金，會腐蝕，老化並與古老的歷史牆相匹配。
“此外，Helfštýn城堡以其鐵藝傳統而聞名，因此選擇與Corten合作是一種完美的選擇。”
Overall the studio hopes that the project will allow visitors to gain a greater understanding and appreciation of the historic castle that dates back to the 13th century.
“The renovation created an attractive sightseeing route that brings the public closer to the construction details of the original palace than ever before,” said the studio.
“Standing on the modern bridges, looking up the walls, you can feel the legacy of the sight as well as understand the purpose of the modern architecture within it.”
總體而言，工作室希望該項目能使遊客對建於13世紀的這座歷史悠久的城堡有更多的了解和欣賞。
該工作室說：“裝修創造了一條引人入勝的觀光路線，使公眾比以往更接近原始宮殿的建築細節。”
“站在現代橋樑上，仰望牆壁，您可以感受到景象的遺產，並了解其中的現代建築的目的。”
