架构师提供的文本描述。BelayMKE是密尔沃基市中心北缘的一个混合用途的开发项目,这是一栋正式被限制的建筑,它结合了一个18,000平方英尺的室内攀岩健身房和46个小公寓单元。该项目占用了一个名为洪堡(Humboldt)的城市棕地场地,现在已不复存在的“密尔沃基路”铁路(MilwaukeeRoad)的修理店就设在那里,直到20世纪70年代初。在闲置了几十年之后,洪堡场(HumboldtYard)在最近几年看到了零星的建筑活动,以缓解城市迅速增长的市中心人口带来的一些压力。
Text description provided by the architects. Belay MKE is a mixed-use development at the northern edge of downtown Milwaukee, a formally restrained building that combines an 18,000-square-foot indoor rock-climbing gym with 46 small apartment units. The project occupies an urban brownfield site known as Humboldt Yards, where the repair shops of the now-defunct “Milwaukee Road” Railway were located until the early 1970s. After sitting idle for decades, Humboldt Yard has seen sporadic construction activity in recent years to absorb some of the pressure from the city’s rapidly growing downtown population.

与此形成鲜明对比的是,典型的开发商形象缓慢地弥漫在整个地区-没有灵感的溴化建筑,每栋建筑都铺满了无数的覆层材料-贝莱MKE被认为是一座有意坚固的整体建筑,它是一座生硬的建筑,旨在回荡过去用来定义洪堡造船厂结构的朴素工业结构的物理规模和强健的存在。
Contrasting the typical developer fare slowly pervading the area – uninspired, bromidic buildings, each plastered with a myriad of cladding materials – Belay MKE was conceived as an intentionally solid, monolithic block, a defiantly raw building designed to reverberate the physical scale and muscular presence of the unpretentious industrial structures that used to define the fabric of Humboldt Yards.

这座建筑被纤维混凝土面板、铝材所强化的受约束的外部调色板-耐候钢,玻璃-反映了密尔沃基作为“世界工场”的历史角色所塑造的场地与迅速转变的城市吸引白领工作和年轻人对一个迷人的城市环境感兴趣的愿望之间的内在矛盾:一个氧化的波纹钢板慢慢转变的皮肤包裹着几乎整个建筑的体积,它的风化的皮肤在精心编辑的对话中与脆,铝型材和混凝土面板的精密生产线。
The building’s restrained exterior palette – weathering steel, accentuated by fiber concrete panels, aluminum, and glass – reflects the inherent contradiction between a site profoundly shaped by Milwaukee’s historic role as the “Workshop of the World” and the aspirations of a swiftly transforming city attracting white-collar jobs and young people interested in an engaging urban environment: A slowly transforming skin of oxidizing corrugated steel panels wraps almost the entire building volume, its weathering skin in a carefully edited dialogue with the crisp, precise lines of aluminum extrusions and concrete panels.
混合建筑计划被组织成一个简单的4层长方形的体积。在建筑物的南边和东边,模块化公寓利用邻近社区绿地的广阔景观,进入最近重新入园的密尔沃基河流域。60英尺高的大跨度健身房本身向北延伸,以容纳建筑物尽头的两堵垂直玻璃墙-高大的洞口,在北大街(North Avenue),一条连接密西根湖和密尔沃基西郊的繁忙的东西大道,向行人展示和有效地宣传室内的攀岩活动。
The hybrid building program was organized as a simple 4-story rectangular volume. Lining the south and east edges of the building, the modular apartments take advantage of expansive views of the adjacent community greenspace and into the recently re-naturalized Milwaukee River basin. The 60-foot high long-span gym space itself projects out to the north to accommodate a pair of vertical glass walls at the end of the building – tall apertures that expose and effectively advertise the climbing activities on the inside to the passers-by on North Avenue, a busy east-west thoroughfare connecting Lake Michigan to Milwaukee’s western suburbs.

健身房的北墙,要求没有窗户,以最大限度地扩大可用的攀登表面,转变成一个高度铰接式,节奏飞机由一系列斜铝鳍组织。鳍的逐渐变化的形状创造了一个动画的垂直纹理,变化取决于光的条件和角度,从他们的观察,一个抽象的回声内起伏的攀登表面。鱼鳍由水平光带隔开,它们的绿色亚克力镜片增加了意想不到的色彩,在黑暗之后进一步激活了墙壁。当它到达顶部时,北墙折叠成一个水平屋顶平面,浮出主建筑顶部5英尺,以容纳一个连续的牧师,为健身房提供充足的自然光一整天。晚上,牧师给了这座建筑一个标志性的存在,把它变成了一座灯光柔和的街边灯塔,照亮了洪堡场阴郁的城市天空。
The gym’s north wall, required to be windowless to maximize the usable climbing surface inside, transforms into a highly articulated, cadenced plane organized by a series of oblique aluminium fins. The fins’ gradually shifting shapes create an animated vertical texture that changes depending on light conditions and the angle from which they are viewed, an abstract echo of the undulating climbing surfaces inside. The fins are spaced by horizontal light strips, their green acrylic lenses adding an unexpected splash of colour that further activates the wall after darkness. As it reaches the top, the north wall folds into a horizontal roof plane floating five feet above the top of the main building volume to accommodate a continuous clerestory that provides the gym with an abundance of natural light throughout the day. At night, the clerestory gives the building an iconic presence, transforming it into a softly glowing neighbourhood beacon illuminating Humboldt Yard’s sombre urban sky.
