森之舞台，位于吉林市松花湖风景区。它坐落在大青山顶，森林边缘的山坡之上。

Stage of Forest，located at Songhua Lake Resort in Ji Lin，is situated on a hillside between the forest and the slope.

夏季，这里被浓郁的绿荫环绕；到冬季，粉雪覆盖一切，形成了一条绝佳的野雪道。这一“地景标志建筑”的选址，基于对场地条件的全方位考量。建筑师希望尽量减少建筑对现有植被的影响，同时保证观景平台上视野的最佳角度，由此确定了基地位置和三角形舞台的基本形状。

The site is surrounded by luscious greenery in summer and covered by an overwhelming white snow in winter. As is a delicate site for a “Land(scape) Mark”, one whose indefinite programming demands a careful degree of deliberation. The location and triangle shape of the “stage” was only determined after precise examination and deduction of the site condition, to minimize the impact for the existing vegetation and to maximize the view on the platform. While sitting on the hill, it is facing the Songhua lake at a distance, who is famous for the rime in its surrounding areas.

森之舞台就从起伏的地景中缓缓升起，如漂浮在水面的一片树叶，悬挑于雪道之上。三角形平台的两条短边，按两条访客路线设置：自林间小路走来，或从雪道滑来。如此，舞台非但没有阻碍人们望向湖面和山峦的视线，更会给行人一种建筑形体与周围山景间不断变动的视觉张力。由于上部的木质舞台和下部的混凝土基座朝向景观不同，两个体量错位相接，建筑最终呈现出一种扭转的姿态。

As one descends from the mountain top, the “Stage” rises slowly above the undulating landscape, in a way like a piece of leaf floating on the water. Positioned with the 2 side-line along the approaching eyesight of the visitors from two routes: the trail in the woods and the ski-slope. Not only it doesn’t obstruct the view to the lake and mountains, it even enhances the experience by inducing ever-changing tension between the cantilever and the surrounding landscape. The entire “stage” is like growing out from the mongolian oak forest, and cantilevering on top of the ski-slope. Because the orientation of the distant view (horizontal unfolding lake), and the close view (vertical extending slope) is at a different angle, the building results in a twisted gesture between the wood “stage” and the concrete “base”.

建筑将粗砺的材料物质性和富于感观体验的空间形态融于一体。通过对建筑体的扭转、翘曲、直线与弧线墙面不断转换等方式，塑造着观者细微的感受差异。从山顶一路走来，“森之舞台”如同一块地景中自由飘起的玛尼石板，悬浮在如竖立的卵石般的混凝土“基座”之上。随着观者逐渐走近，先前感觉深沉的建筑体，在阳光下烧杉板的表皮隐约泛出银色的光泽；最终抵达建筑时，烧杉板皲裂的表面、清水混凝土表层的木纹理变得清晰而几可触摸。

The building combined rough materiality with its sensuous form. Seen from afar, the “stage” is a dark, free-floating monolith in the landscape, with a heavy concrete “base”. Come closer, the reflection on the charred cedar shingles (Shou-Sugi-Ban) becomes faintly perceptible – even turns silvery with the changing angle of sunlight. After one meandering through the forest boardwalk and finally arriving in front of it, the chapped surface of the shingles and the wood texture of the cast concrete become tangible.

建筑的内部组织更是一场精心策划的空间体验。进入延长的混凝土门斗后，你的眼睛会逐渐适应昏暗的光线，同时被雪道向远处延伸的景观所吸引。随后，狭窄的木楼梯指引着一路往上的唯一路径。到达观景层后一转身，霎那间，松花湖的湖景和蜿蜒山林横陈眼前，呈现出大自然令人窒息的美。气候无常，湖面时而清晰可见，时而雾气蒸腾；冬天的山林，偶尔还会出现“雾凇”奇观。

The interior is choreographed through a carefully plotted experience. Upon entering the concrete vestibule, in the moment your eye adjusts to the dimmed light, a vertical view along the stretching slope will catch you first, then a narrow staircase hints the only way of elevating. When you arrive at the platform level and turn around, what suddenly opens up to you is a great panoramic view of the Songhua lake, winding in-between the hills, clear or hazed by with the ever-changing mist, an exceptional vista that is breathtakingly beautiful and magical.

建筑师在平台的三角形体量中，斜切出一对椭圆形的洞口。一个洞口在屋面，等待雪花和阳光洒入室内空间。另一个洞口位于地板，诱发舞台上下的人互动。平台内部整体为未做处理的红雪松木板，保留着原木色差，与外侧深色的烧杉板表皮形成色彩与质感上的强烈对比。

A pair of ovals openings cut through the volume, one on the roof leading sunlight and snowflake into the space, the other one on the floor intriguing interaction between people above and under the “stage”. The red cedar wall has been left untreated and is vivid in color shades, in contrast to the building’s dark charred-wood-shingle (Shou-Sugi-Ban) exterior.

META-工作室认为，在自然中设计，就是搭建人与自然之间一个启发性的媒介。森之舞台不仅是一个观景平台，也是一个可以灵活用于活动、聚会、展览和工作坊的公共空间。它希望激发人们更多地探索自然，发掘人与自然的关系。而森之舞台本身，也将成为自然的一部分。

META-Project believes, designing in nature is to introduce an enlightening medium between nature and people. The “Stage of Forest” is not just a look-out, it is a flexible public space that can hold events, exhibitions, or workshops… The building is intended to stimulate people to come up with more ideas of exploring their relationship with the nature, and itself also becomes part of the nature.
