JoshuaPrinceRamus_西雅图的图书馆【中英文对照】

1.I’m going to present three projects in rapid fire.
我将快速地展示三件作品
2.I don’t have much time to do it.
我时间不多
3.And I want to reinforce three ideas with that rapid-fire presentation.
并且我想通过快速的展示来强化这三件作品的概念
4.The first is what I like to call a hyper-rational process.
第一件作品我将它的设计称之为高度理性主义
5.It’s a process that takes rationality almost to an absurd level, and it transcends all the baggage that normally comes with what people would call, sort of, a rational conclusion to something.
它几乎 已经理性到了荒唐的境界 它已经超过了 人们通常可以接受的 理性的程度
6.And it concludes in something that you see here, that you actually wouldn’t expect as being the result of rationality.
它包含了一些你看得见 但却想不到是理性主义的 一些元素
7.The second — [unclear] oh — the second is that this process does not have a signature.
第二件 这第二件作品 并没有署名
8.There is no authorship. Architects are obsessed with authorship.
我们不知作者是谁，而通常建筑师很乐于署名
9.This is something that has editing and it has teams.
通常以团队形式
10.In fact, we no longer see, within this process, the traditional master architect creating a sketch that his minions carry out.
事实上我们在这件作品中看不到 传统建筑大师的创造 而只是他的助手画出的草图
11.And the third is that it challenges — and this is, in the length of this, very hard to support why, connect all these things — but it challenges the high modernist notion of flexibility.
第三个，有点难度 以它的长度，很难把所有这些 连接在一起 但它挑战了最现代意义上的灵活性
12.High modernists said, we will create, sort of, singular spaces that are generic.
现代主义认为，我们创造 一种共有的单一空间
13.Almost anything can happen within them.
几乎所有的事都能在那里发生
14.I call it sort of shotgun flexibility.
我把它称为射击的灵活性
15.Turn your head this way, shoot, and you’re bound to kill something.
把你的头转向这边，射击，你一定会打中目标
16.So, this is the promise of high modernism: within a single space, actually, any kind of activity can happen.
这就是现代主义的预示 在单一空间里，所有的事都可能发生
17.But as we’re seeing, operational costs are starting to dwarf capital costs in terms of design parameters.
但正如我们看见的 对于设计而言 运转费用超过了资本成本
18.And so, with this sort of idea, what happens is, whatever actually is in the building on opening day, or whatever seems to be the most immediate need,
一旦有了这种想法 所有正在建造中的 或者所有看似最急迫的需求
19.starts to dwarf the possibility and sort of subsume it, of anything else could ever happen.
都会阻止想法的落实 以及最后设计成果的诞生
20.And so we’re proposing a different kind of flexibility, something that we call “compartmentalized flexibility.”
所以我们提出一种不一样的灵活性 我们称之为 “分类的灵活性”
21.And the idea is that you, within that continuum, identify a series of points, and you design specifically to them.
大致的概念就像 你连续地确认一系列点，并对它们进行设计
22.They can be pushed off-center a little bit, but in the end you actually still get as much of that original spectrum as you originally had hoped.
它们会有点偏离中心 但最后你还是会得到 和你最初想要的类似的效果
23.With high modernist flexibility, that doesn’t really work.
而现代主义的灵活性，这点却不能成立
24.Now I’m going to talk about — I’m going to build up the Seattle Central Library in this way before your eyes in about five or six diagrams,
现在我来谈一下，我打算建造西雅图中央图书馆 你们可以看到五六个图表
25.and I truly mean this is the design process that you’ll see.
这就是你们将看到的设计过程
26.With the library staff and the library board, we settled on two core positions.
我们同图书馆委员会及工作人员一起 确定了两个核心设置
27.This is the first one, and this is showing, over the last 900 years, the evolution of the book and other technologies.
这是第一个，它显示了，在过去900年里， 书和其他技术的进化过程
28.This diagram was our sort of position piece about the book, and our position was, books are technology — that’s something people forget —
这图代表了我们对书的定位 书本就是技术 许多人忘了这点
29.but it’s a form of technology that will have to share its dominance with any other form of truly potent technology or media.
但是我们需要借助其他技术或媒介 才能分享书的影响力
30.The second premise — and this was something that was very difficult for us to convince the librarians of at first — is that libraries since the inception
第二个预设，这个很难， 我们花了很大力气去说服图书管理员 它们自从

31.of Carnegie Library tradition in America had a second responsibility, and that was for social roles.
美国卡耐基图书馆的传统开始 就承担了一种第二性的社会责任
32.OK, now, this I’ll come back to later, but something, actually, the librarians at first said, “No, this isn’t our mandate.
好了，现在，我们稍候再说这个，但是 那些图书管理员一开始会说：“不，这不是我们要管的”
33.Our mandate is media, and particularly the book.”
我们管的是媒介，尤其是书
34.So what you’re seeing now is actually the design of the building.
所以你现在看到的其实是建筑的设计
35.The upper diagram is what we had seen in a whole host of contemporary libraries that used high modernist flexibility.
上面的图表 是我们在整个当代图书馆里看到的 它们运用到了现代主义的灵活性
36.Sort of, any activity could happen anywhere.
就是那种，任何事在任何地方都可能发生的
37.We don’t know the future of the library, we don’t know the future of the book, and so we’ll use this approach.
我们不知道图书馆的未来，也不知道书的未来 所以我们用这个方法
38.And what we saw were buildings that were very generic.
我们看到的建筑千人一面
39.And, worse, not only did we see buildings that were very generic — so, not only does the reading room look like the copy room look like the magazine area —
更糟的是并不只是看上去非常相似 不只是阅览室和文印室 或者和杂志区长得差不多
40.but it meant that whatever issue was troubling the library at that moment was starting to engulf every other activity that was happening in it.
更重要的是它意味着 所有图书馆里发生的事 都会相互干扰相互影响
41.And in this case, what was getting engulfed were these social responsibilities by the expansion of the book.
在这种情况下 书的社会责任之延伸将得不到发挥
42.And so we proposed what’s at the lower diagram.
所以我们提出了下面的这个图
43.Very dumb approach: simply compartmentalize. Put those things whose evolution we could predict — and I don’t mean that we could say whatever would actually happen in the future,
很土的办法 简化分类，将这些我们可以预料的事 我并不是说我们可以预测未来发生什么
44.but we have some certainty of the spectrum of whatever would happen in the future — put those in boxes designed specifically for it,
但是我们很确信有这种 未来发生的可能性 把这些东西放在一个专门设计的盒子里
45.and put the things that we can’t predict on the rooftops.
而把那些无法预测的放在屋顶
46.So that was the core idea.
这就是核心思想
47.Now, we had to convince the library that social roles was equally important to media in order to get them to accept this.
现在，为了让图书管理员认识到这一点 我们必须说服他们 社会责任和媒介的作用一样重要
48.What you’re seeing here is actually their program on the left.
你现在看到的左边的是他们的程序
49.That’s as it was given to us in all of its clarity and glory.
和我们拿到它时一样的色彩鲜艳
50.Our first operation was to re-digest it back to them, show it to them and say, “You know what? We haven’t touched it, but only one-third of your own program is dedicated to media and books.
我们的第一步是重新组合它们 回去跟他们说 “你们知道吗，我们一点都没动过 但你们的程序只有1/3是和媒介及书有关的
51.Two-thirds of it is already dedicated — that’s the white band below — the thing you said isn’t important: is already dedicated to social functions.”
而剩下的三分之二，就是下面的白色部分 你们说它不重要的 已经起到了社会功能
52.So, once we had presented that back to them, they agreed that this sort of core concept could work.
所以，一旦我们把这个重新给他们看 他们同意这种核心概念能有效
53.We got the right to go back to first principles — that’s the third diagram. We recombined everything.
我们可以回到最重要的 第三个图表，我们把一切重新组合
54.And then we started making new decisions.
然后我们开始做新的决定
55.What you’re seeing on the right is the design of the library, specifically in terms of square footage.
你们看到的右边是对图书馆的设计 尤其是面积空间上
56.On the left of that diagram, here, you’ll see a series of five platforms — sort of combs; collective programs.
左边，这里 你会看见 一系列的五个平台 梳理整合好的程序
57.And on the right are the more indeterminate spaces, things like reading rooms, whose evolution in 20, 30, 40 years we can’t predict.
而右边不确定的空间 比如阅览室 我们无法判断它未来20，30，40年的发展
58.So that literally was the design of the building.
所以这就是初步的设计
59.They signed it, and to their chagrin, we came back a week later, and we presented them this.
他们签字同意了，但让他们懊恼的是 一个星期以后，我们回来，向他们展示了这个
60.OK? And, as you can see, it is literally the diagram on the right.
你可以看到，这和那个图表面上看很契合
****************************************************************

61.OK? We just sized — no, really, I mean that, literally.
我们只是 噢，我说真的，表面上看
62.The things on the — on the left-hand side of the diagram, those are the boxes.
左边这些 就像图上的，是盒子
63.We sized them into five compartments.
我们把他们放进了五个部分
64.They’re super-efficient. We had a very low budget to work with.
超级高效，我们预算很低
65.We pushed them around on the site to make very literal contextual relationships.
我们就这样建造 非常清楚的上下关系
66.The reading room should be able to see the water.
从阅览室里可以看到下面的水
67.The main entrance should have a public plaza in front of it to abide by the zoning code, and so forth.
主入口前有一个广场 遵守区域编号，排列
68.So, you see the five platforms — those are the boxes — within each one a very discrete thing is happening.
你可以看到五个平台 五个盒子，每个专供一项特殊的用途
69.The area in between is sort of an urban continuum, these things that we can’t predict their evolution to the same degree.
而中间是现代化的联结 这些我们无法预料未来发展进度的
70.To give you some sense of the power of this idea, the biggest block is what we call the book spiral.
为了向你们展现这种想法的强大力量 最大的这一块我们称之为书螺旋
71.It’s literally built in a very inexpensive way — it is a parking garage for books.
很简单，造价也不贵 它就像一个”停书场“
72.It just so happens to be in the sixth through 10th floor of the building, but that is not necessarily an expensive approach.
从6楼到10楼 但并不贵
73.And it allows us to organize the entire Dewey decimal system on one continuous run: no matter how it grows or contracts within the building,
它使得我们可以连续地使用杜威十进制图书排列法 无论书的数量怎样扩张
74.it will always have its clarity to end the sort of trail of tears that we’ve all experienced in public libraries.
还是可以整理得很清楚 我们以前都曾对公共图书馆很无语 经常找不到书
75.(Laughter) And so this was the final operation, which was to take these blocks as they were all pushed off kilter, and to hold onto them with a skin.
(笑声) 而最后一步就是把这些楼层 整合在一起 设计一个漂亮的外观
76.That skin serves double duty, again for economics.
这个外观必须有两层作用
77.One, it is the lateral stability for the entire building: it is a structural element. But its dimensions were designed not only for structure,
第一，维持整个建筑横向的稳定 这是结构层面的，但它的作用不仅在于此
78.but also for holding on every piece of glass.
它还必须保证所有玻璃的安装
79.The glass was then — I’ll just use the  word impregnated — but it had a layer of metal that was called stressed metal.
使得玻璃融合一体 但它有所谓的一层受力金属
80.That metal acts as a micro louver, so from the exterior of the building the sun sees it as totally opaque, but from the interior it’s entirely transparent.
就像微型天窗 隔离外部的阳光 却能保持室内光线通透
81.So, now I’m going to take you on a tour of the building.
现在，我将带你们领略一下这个建筑
82.Let’s see if I can find it. For anyone who is — gets motion sickness, I apologize.
我来找找看 抱歉
83.So this is the building.
这就是那幢建筑
84.And I think what’s important is, when we first unveiled the building, the public thought — saw it as being totally about our whim and ego.
我认为重要的是，当我们首次展示这个建筑 公众普遍认为 这只是我们一时的野心和兴致
85.And it was defended, believe it or not, by the librarians. They said, “Look, we don’t know what it is, but we know it’s everything that we need it to be
但信不信由你们，这个建筑得到了图书管理员们的拥护 他们说：”我们不知这是啥，
86.based on the observations that we’ve done about the program.”
但根据我们观察 它有了我们需要的一切“
87.This is going into one of the entries.
这是个入口
88.So it’s an unusual building for a public library, obviously.
这是个很特别的公共图书馆 很显然
89.So now we’re going into what we call the reading room — sorry, living room.
我们去看一下阅览室，错了，是大厅
90.This is actually a program that we invented with the library.
这其实是我们发明的一个空间
91.It was recognizing that public libraries are the last vestige of public free space.
将图书馆作为 一个公众的自由空间
92.There are plenty of shopping malls that allow you to get out of the rain in downtown Seattle, but there are not so many free places that allows you to get out of the rain.
在西雅图市中心 有许多购物广场，你避雨的时候可以去 但却没有多少 自由空间让你避雨
93.So this was an unprogrammed area where people could, pretty much do anything, including eat, yell, play chess and so forth.
而这就是一个人们可以做很多事的空间 包括吃，叫喊，下棋等等
94.Now we’re moving up into what we call the mixing chamber.
现在我们往上 这是一个混合区
95.That was the main sort of technology area in the building.
也是整座建筑的主体
96.You’ll have to tell me if I’m going too fast for you.
如果我走得太快，你们可以提出
97.Now up.
现在上来
98.This is actually the place that we put into the building so I could propose to my wife. Right there.
这个其实是我们特地设计的 好让我向我妻子求婚，就是这里
99.(Laughter) She said yes.
(笑声) 她答应了
100.I’m running out of time, so I’m actually going to stop.
我快没时间了，所以就此打住
101.I can show this to you later.
我可以晚些再向你们展示
102.But let’s see if I can very quickly get into the book spiral, because I think it’s, as I said, the most — this is the main reading room — the most unique part of the building.
但我们试试看能不能快点看一下书螺旋 因为我觉得它是最…… 这是主阅览室，书螺旋是整座建筑最独特的地方
103.You dizzy yet?
你们晕了吗？
104.OK, so here, this is the book spiral.
好，这就是书螺旋
105.So, it’s very indiscernible, but it’s actually a continuous stair stepping.
看不清 但实际上它是不断在上升
106.It allows you to, on one city block, go up one full floor, so that it’s on a continuum.
让你在一层楼 不断连续地向上
107.OK, now I’m going to go back, and so I’m going to hit a second project.
好，现在我们谈谈第二个作品
108.I’m going to go very, very quickly through this.
我会很快
109.Now this is the Dallas Theater. It was an unusual client for us, because they came to us and they said, “We need you to do a new building. We’ve been working in a
这是达拉斯剧院，我们一个很特别的客户 因为他们来找我们，说 我们需要你们建一栋新楼
110.temporary space for 30 years, but because of that temporary space, we’ve become an infamous theater company.
我们已经在临时房里工作了30年 就是因为那临时房 我们的剧院公司臭名昭著
111.Theater is really focused in New York, Chicago and Seattle, with the exception of the Dallas Theater Company.”
我们的剧院主要针对纽约，芝加哥，西雅图 这是我们达拉斯剧院公司的一些期望”
112.And the very fact that they worked on a provisional space meant that for Beckett they could blow out a wall; they could do “Cherry Orchard” and blow a hole through the floor, and so forth.
而他们在临时性场地工作的事实 说明他们可以随便弄垮一面墙 或者像樱桃园一样在地上挖洞，等等
113.So it was a very daunting task for us to do a brand-new building that could keep the — be a pristine building, but keep this kind of experimental nature.
所以要为他们造一幢新楼对我们是一项令人畏惧的工作 要保持完好无损的外表 又要允许他们在里面做各种试验性的事
114.And the second is, they were what we call a multi-form theater: they do different kinds of performances in repertory.
第二点是，这家公司是我们常说的 多功能剧院 他们安排各种剧目的表演
115.So they in the morning will do something in arena, then they’ll do something in proscenium and so forth.
比如早上， 他们会安排竞技场表演 然后还有些幕前表演等等
116.And so they needed to be able to quickly transform between different theater organizations, and for operational budget reasons, this actually no longer happens in pretty much
所以他们需要很快地 在各种剧目间转换 而由于预算 现在一般的美国剧院公司
117.any multi-form theater in the United States, so we needed to figure out a way to overcome that.
都不做这种形式 因此我们要想法克服这一点
118.So our thought was to literally put the theater on its head: to take those things that were previously defined as front-of-house and back-of-house
所以我们的想法是把剧院放在前面 然后把前面说的这些分为前部和后部
119.and stack them — above house and below house — and to create sort of what we started to call a theater machine.
以及上部和下部 把它建成一个剧院机器
120.We invest the money in the operation of the building.
我们投钱进去
121.It’s almost as though the building could be placed anywhere: wherever you place it, the area underneath it is charged for theatrical performances.
所有的钱都会通过剧院的演出 得到回报
122.And it allowed us to go back to first principles, and redefine fly tower, acoustic enclosure, light enclosure and so forth.
这让我们回到最初 重新设计舞台塔，音箱 灯光等
123.And at the push of a button, it allows the artistic director to move between proscenium thrust and, in fact, arena and traverse and flat floor
同时，只要一按键 艺术导演就可以在舞台，竞技场 之间穿梭
124.in a very quick transfiguration.
这是一种很快的转换
125.So in fact, we can go, using operational budget we can — sorry, capital cost — we can actually achieve what was no longer achievable in operational cost.
所以事实上，用那些运营成本 抱歉，是资本成本，我们可以达到 难以置信的效果
126.And that means that the artistic director now has a palette that he or she can choose from between a series of forms and a series of processions,
这意味着艺术导演 现在可以选择 不同表演方式
127.because that enclosure around the theater that is normally trapped with front-of-house and back-of-house spaces has been liberated.
由于剧院设计的关系 原本孤立的前后部得以贯通 空间得到了有效的利用
128.So an artistic director has the ability to show — have a performance that enters in a Wagnerian procession, shows the first act in thrust,
艺术导演可以 表演一出瓦格纳的戏 然后把它改变成
129.the intermission in a Greek procession, second act in arena, and so forth.
希腊的过渡场景 再到竞技场表演第二幕，等等
130.So I’m going to show you what — what this actually means.
我现在要展示给你们看，这到底意味着什么
131.This is the theater up close.
这就是剧院
132.Any portion around the theater actually can be opened discretely.
其实周围的每一部分都可以秘密打开
133.The light enclosure can be lifted separate to the acoustic enclosure, so you can do Beckett with Dallas as the backdrop.
照明可以分开 这些都拿掉你可以演贝克纳 把达拉斯作为背景
134.Portions can be opened, so you can now actually have motorcycles drive directly into the performance, or you can even just have an open-air performance,
周围打开，你可以让摩托车进去 直接上舞台，甚至可以由开放式的表演
135.or for intermissions.
或者是便于转场
136.The balconies all move to go between those configurations, but they also disappear.
这些结构中的所有包厢都可以移动 或者拿掉
137.The proscenium line can also disappear.
幕前部分也可以拿掉
138.You can bring enormous objects in, so in fact their — the Dallas Theater Company — their first show will be a play about Charles Lindbergh,
你可以搬来巨大的东西，事实上 达拉斯剧院的第一场秀 是关于查尔斯·林德伯格的
139.and they’ll want to bring in real aircraft.
他们将搬来真的飞行器
140.And then it also provides them, in the off-season, the ability to actually rent out their space for entirely different things.
这也让他们 在非演出季的时候 可以把场地租出去
141.This is it at night — sorry, from a distance.
这是夜晚，抱歉，远处看
142.Open up entire portions for different kinds of events.
把所用部分都打开，准备不同的活动
143.And at night.
这是在晚上
144.Again, remove the light enclosure; keep the acoustic enclosure.
一样的，去掉灯光，保留声音
145.This is a monster truck show.
可以演鬼片
146.I’m going to show now the last project.
现在我将要展示最后一件作品
147.This also is an unusual client.
也是一个特别的客户
148.They inverted the whole idea of development.
他们颠覆了整个发展的思路
149.They came to us and they said — unlike normal developers — they said, “We want to start out by providing a contemporary art museum
和一般的开发商不同，他们过来跟我们说 “我们想从 当代艺术馆开始”
150.in Louisville. That’s our main goal.”
在路易斯维尔，这就是我们主要的目标“
151.And so instead of being a developer that sees an opportunity to make money, they saw an ability to be a catalyst in their downtown.
和一般开发商看到赚钱的机会不同 他们希望在市中心 制造一些刺激因素
152.And the fact that they wanted to support the contemporary art museum actually built their pro forma, so they worked in reverse.
他们建立起一种预期 来支持当代艺术 并且为此奋斗
153.And that pro forma led us to a mixed-use building that was very large in order to support their aspirations of the art, but it also opened up opportunities for the art itself
而那种预期 引导我们建造一幢很大的多功能建筑 可以支持他们的艺术灵感 同时为艺术本身提供机会
154.to collaborate, interact with commercial spaces that actually artists more and more want to work within.
与商业空间整合，互动 这才是现代艺术家期望的工作环境
155.And it also charged us with thinking about how to have something that was both a single building and a credible sort of sub-building.
这也迫使我们去思考 如何把两种功能 融合在一幢建筑里
156.So now I’m going to — this is Louisville’s skyline — and I’m going to take you through various constraints that led to the project.
现在我将，这是路易斯维尔的地平线 我将带你们穿过 各种各样的限制去看到这个项目
157.First, the physical constraints. We actually had to operate on three discrete sites, all of them well, well smaller than the size of the building.
首先，空间上的限制 事实上我们要在三个分散的点之间建造 而它们在体积上都比这建筑小
158.We had to operate next to the new Muhammad Ali center, and respect it.
首先，是新的爱立中心 我们必须在风格上与它协调
159.We had to operate within the 100-year floodplain.
必须建造在100年漫滩的范围内
160.Now, this area floods three to four times a year, and there’s a levee behind our site similar to the ones that broke in New Orleans.
现在这块地方，每三到四年犯一次洪水 我们选址的后面还有一码头 和新奥尔良损坏的那个很相似
161.Have to operate behind the I-64 corridor, a street that cuts through the middle of these separate sites.
我们必须在I-64长廊后施工 这条街把地分割成几部分
162.So these — we’re starting to build a sort of nightmare of constraints in a bathtub.
所有的这些…… 简直是灾难
163.Underneath the bathtub are the city’s main power lines.
这块地下面 有城市的主要电线
164.And there’s a pedestrian corridor that they wanted to add that would link a series of cultural buildings, and a view corridor — because this is the historic district —
他们想在那里建一条徒步走廊 可以将周围的建筑连成一体 同时这也是一条景观走道
165.that they didn’t want to obstruct with the new building.
由于这是历史区，他们不希望被新房子挡住
166.(Laughter) And now we’re going to add 1.1 million square feet.
(笑声) 现在我们将扩建1100万平方英尺
167.And if we did the traditional thing, that 1.1 million square feet — these are the different programs — traditional thing would be to identify
如果我们按常规做法 当然这个项目会有不同
168.the public elements, place them on sites, and now we’d have a really terrible situation: a public thing in the middle of a bathtub that floods.
传统的做法就是识别一些公共元素，保持不动 这样就会有一个很糟的结果 会出现整体和谐中的突兀
169.And then we would size all the other elements — the different commercial elements: hotel, luxury housing, offices and so forth — and dump it on top. And we would create something
然后我们会安排其他的一些元素 一些商业元素 酒店，奢侈住房，办公楼等 这些建筑会在上层
170.that was unviable.
我们的这些建筑无法独立存在
171.In fact — and you know this — this is called the Time Warner building.
事实上，就像时代华纳大楼
172.(Laughter) So our strategy was very simple.
(笑声) 我们的战略非常简单
173.Just lift the entire block, flip some of the elements over, reposition them, so they have appropriate views and relationships to downtown,
把整个街区向上提升 把一些建筑重新组合 使它们看起来更协调，关系更紧密
174.and make circulation connections and reroute the road.
改变建筑间的关系以及道路的排列
175.So that’s the basic concept, and now I’m going to show you what it leads to.
好了，这是基本的概念 现在我想你们展示它的效果
176.OK, it seems a very formal, willful gesture, but something derived entirely out of the constraints.
好的，它看上去是一个有力的象征 完全超出一般的限制
177.And again, when we unveiled it, there was sort of nervousness that this was about an architect making a statement, not an architect who was attempting to solve
一样的是，当它被揭幕时，也面临了种种质疑 这就像建筑师作了一个声明 却不去解决问题
178.a series of problems.
有一系列的问题
179.Now, within that center zone, as I said, we have the ability to mix a series of things.
现在，正如我说的，我们有能力 在那片中心区域组合一系列的事
180.So here you can see that these — this — sort of an x-ray — the towers are totally developer-driven. They told us the dimensions, the sizes, and so forth
所以你们可以看到这些 这些，这塔就像x射线 这些都是由发展商决定的，他们告诉我们面积的标准
181.and we focused on taking all the public components — the lobbies, the bars, everything that the different commercial elements would have —
而我们主要关注公共元素 大厅，酒吧， 所有关于商业的
182.and combined it in the center, in the sort of subway map, in the transfer zone that would also include the contemporary art museum.
并把他们在中心整合，就像四通八达的地铁图 在过渡区域由当代博物馆
183.So it creates a situation like this, where you have artists who can operate within an art space that also has an amazing view on the 22nd floor,
所以大致就是这个样子 我们有艺术家在里面工作 22楼的艺术空间有惊人的视野
184.but it also has proximity that the curator can either open or close.
但是馆长可以选择 是否开放这一区域
185.It allows people on exercise bicycles to be seen or to see the art, and so forth.
