Maggie’s Centre Oxford 康复中心

[ad_1]

位於牛津Churchill醫院的最新一家Maggie’s康復中心由Wilkinson Eyre事務所擔任設計，其方案源於樹屋的概念。治療中心坐落在Patricia Thompson大樓內，如同漂浮在醫院場地邊緣的灌木叢上方。建築被建造在底層架空柱之上，輕盈地跨越下方的景觀，並通過扭轉的幾何形式營造出擁有柔和採光和動線的室內空間。設計與自然環境形成了密切的互動關係，為來訪者營造出舒適宜人的氛圍。

Wilkinson Eyre has completed the latest Maggie’s Centre at Churchill Hospital in Oxford. Inspired by the concept of a tree house, Maggie’s Oxford at the Patricia Thompson Building, floats amongst the trees in a small copse on the edge of the hospital grounds. Raised on piloti , it treads lightly on the landscape beneath while the twisting geometry of the architectural form creates internal spaces that are full of gentle movement and light. The design interacts with and embraces nature to provide comfort and reassurance for visitors in their time of need.

設計的核心思路是打造一座令人感到溫暖且友好的建築。康復中心需要提供一種安靜且較為中立的環境，避免帶來商業或臨床診所的感覺。建築師利用多邊形的幾何形式解決了這一問題，為中心內的空間注入了生命力。

Key to the design concept was to create a building that felt warm and friendly. The Centre needed to be tranquil, slightly neutral and not in any way corporate or clinical. This was addressed by the angular geometry of the architectural form which has added movement and life to the spaces within.

一系列相互折疊和包覆的立體板面圍合出一個三向式的體量，使建築能夠與場地中既有的樹木形成和諧的關係，來訪者也可藉此與景觀親密接觸。戶外露台和深入樹林的台階為沈浸式的探索體驗創造了更多機會。

A series of three-dimensional planes fragment, fold and wrap into each other around a tripartite plan which allows the structure to fit among the existing trees – and visitors to escape visually into the landscape. External terraces and steps into the woodland allow visitors the opportunity to explore and immerse themselves further.

為了與森林環境相適應，建築整體使用木材打造。架空柱上方的體量選用了預製的交叉層壓木板，能夠減少對動植物的傷害。底部的立柱由膠合板構成，並固定在隱藏在地下的螺旋樁上。傾斜的立柱群在為建築提供支撐的同時呼應了叢林的形態。建築的表面材料主要是木材和玻璃，兼具了溫馨和現代的感覺，隨著時間的推移它們將產生天然的光澤，與周圍的景觀形成更加和諧的關係。

In keeping with the woodland setting, the building has been constructed from timber all the way to the ground. To minimise disruption to the flora and fauna, prefabricated crossply laminated timber panels were erected on glulam timber columns fixed to concealed screw piles below the ground. Informal clusters of tilted columns support the structure and evoke a thicket of tree trunks in the woods. The surface materials are largely timber and glass which are friendly and familiar and while modern, they will weather naturally and sit comfortably within the landscape.

室內空間從中央區域向三個方向延伸，作為對設計任務的直接回應。三個主翼分別滿足了三種不同的功能：信息獲取、情感支持以及休閒放鬆。所有的空間均與氣氛友好的中央空間相連，後者包含廚房、餐桌和爐灶。

The internal plan is composed of three wings emanating from a central space which is a direct interpretation of the Maggie’s brief, allowing separate areas for information, emotional support and relaxation. All are linked to the central welcoming heart of the building which has a kitchen, dining table and stove.

建築內部擁有家庭般的氛圍，在吸引人們聚集的同時也帶來了安靜的休息和思考空間。頂部側面的玻璃連接了長廊和天花板，並為室內引入自然光線。屋頂上的窄窗帶來陽光，地面上的窗戶則提供了觀察下方景觀的視野。這些元素共同構建了內部空間與自然環境的緊密關係，為建築帶來不同方向的視野和採光。

The spaces are of a domestic scale, friendly and inviting but also offering quiet places to retreat and reflect. Clerestory glazing connects partition walls to the ceiling, giving the feeling of an oversailing roof and bringing light through the building. Slot openings in the roof allow shafts of sunlight into the spaces and openings in the floor provide views through to the landscape below. Together, these elements combine to create a strong relationship between the internal spaces and the natural surroundings, offering views and light from every aspect.

精心考量過的細節處理進一步突出了中央空間的室內特徵：廚房的桌子（Wilkinson Eyre設計）和多彩的地毯（Diana Edmunds設計）均是為空間特別定制。蝕刻在木製牆面上的精美紋理輕柔地增強了建築空間的幾何感。

Considered details have further enhanced the Centre’s interior spaces: the kitchen table (designed by Wilkinson Eyre) and the colourful rug in the relaxation area (designed by Diana Edmunds) are bespoke designs, while delicate surface lines etched into the timber walls gently reinforce the building’s geometry.

Wilkinson Eyre事務所的創始人兼設計總監Chris Wilkinson表示：“和許多人一樣，我也有一些因癌症而遭受痛苦的朋友，因此我對Maggie’s的原則和理念有著深切的同理心。對於建築師來說，能夠有機會設計一間Maggie’s中心無疑是一種榮幸，尤其是當你能夠通過設計來讓別人感覺更好一些的時候。無疑，建築能夠鼓舞人心，這也應該是所有與健康相關的建築所需要具備的品質。

“我們的設計體現了Maggie’s中心的核心理念與原則。樹屋的概念最大程度地建立了室內與外部景觀之間的聯繫，為休息、諮詢和治療提供了謹慎中立的空間。它營造的是一個充滿關懷且與周圍環境相適應的休養場所。與住宅或診所不同，它所具備的是只屬於Maggie’s中心的特徵。”

Chris Wilkinson, founding director of Wilkinson Eyre Architects and the designer of Maggie’s Oxford at the Patricia Thompson Building said: “Like many people, I have seen friends suffer from cancer and have great sympathy with the aims and principles of Maggie’s. It’s a privilege for an architect to have the opportunity to design a Maggie’s Centre, particularly when you believe, as I do, that good architecture can make you feel better. Certainly, architecture can be uplifting and this should be the aspiration for all health buildings, as it is with Maggie’s”.

“Our design for Maggie’s Oxford encapsulates the philosophy and principles on which the Maggie’s Centres are based. The tree house concept maximises the relationship between the internal space and the external landscape offering discreet spaces for relaxation, information and therapy. It provides a sympathetic and caring retreat, in tune with its surroundings. It is not like a house or a clinic but has a special identity that is a Maggie’s Centre”.

Wilkinson Eyre事務所的項目建築師Andrew Walsh表示：“該項目的所有參與者，包括整個項目團隊、手工匠以及承包商，無不傾其所能，對Maggie’s中心的成功落成貢獻了不可替代的力量。 ”

Andrew Walsh of Wilkinson Eyre Architects, project architect for Maggie’s Oxford at the Patricia Thompson Building said: “Everyone involved in this project gave it their all. The skill and commitment of the entire project team, the craftspeople and the contractors was essential to the successful realisation of Maggie’s Oxford”.

該項目是Maggie’s中心自1996年在愛丁堡首次成立以來的第18個成員。

The new Maggie’s Oxford Centre at the Patricia Thompson Building is the eighteenth Maggie’s Centre to be opened eighteen years since the first Maggie’s Centre opened in Edinburgh in 1996.
