耗资3千7百50万欧元的荷兰阿纳姆火车站换乘大厅近日完工。

该项目由UNStudio做总体规划，工期长达20年，堪称阿纳姆二战之后最大的开发项目。在荷兰政府的支持下，新的换乘大厅改写了火车站设计的历史，是目前欧洲该类型项目中最为复杂的一个。阿纳姆火车站将变成城市“新客厅”，并有望成为连接德国、荷兰、比利时的重要交通节点。换乘大厅包含一部分商业空间，一座会议中心，并提供直接通往周边办公广场、市中心、地下车库以及Sonsbeek公园的通道。车站周边一些地区将会成为它的一部分，包括160,000平方米的办公、购物空间，以及一座电影院。

The new €37.5m (£27.6m) Transfer Terminal at Arnhem Central Station in the Netherlands has now completed.

The station is the result of an ambitious 20-year project – masterplanned by UNStudio – to redevelop the wider station area; the largest post-war development in Arnhem. Backed by the Dutch government, this transfer hub rewrites the rulebook on train stations and is the most complex of its type in Europe. The station will become the new ‘front door’ of the city, embracing the spirit of travel, and is expected to establish Arnhem as an important node between Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium. The new terminal houses commercial areas, and a conference centre and provides links to the nearby office plaza, city centre, underground parking garage and the Park Sonsbeek. The area around the station will become a place in of itself, with 160,000m2 of offices, shops and a cinema complex.

换乘大厅面积21,750平方米，其最显著的特点是戏剧化的、扭转的几何屋面，后者为大厅提供了跨度达60米的无柱空间。从内外一体的克莱因瓶中获得灵感，UNStudio通过在大厅内部延续城市景观来模糊建筑内外的分隔，天花、墙面和地板都以无缝连接的方式彼此转换。要实现屋顶和扭转的柱体结构只能放弃传统的建造材料和方法，用更轻的钢材代替混凝土，通过船只建造技术将大厅搭建起来。

The 21,750m2 Transfer Terminal features a dramatic twisting structural roof geometry, which enables column-free spans of up to 60m in the transfer hall. Taking references from the continuous inside/outside surface of a Klein Bottle, UNStudio aimed to blur distinctions between the inside and outside of the terminal by continuing the urban landscape into the interior of the transfer hall, where ceilings, walls and floors all seamlessly transition into one another. The structure of the roof and twisting column was only made possible by abandoning traditional construction methods and materials; much lighter steel replaced concrete – originally intended for the station – and was constructed using boat building techniques on a scale never before attempted.

建造这样工期漫长、预算庞大的建筑，且中期并无任何设计的妥协，无论是业主ProRail B.V还是建筑师都需要莫大的勇气，同时也离不开基建部、市议会以及承建方BAM的努力。

UNStudio于1996年开始对该项目进行总体规划，换乘大厅第一稿的设计要追溯到2000年。在仔细研究了客流流线和运输模型之后，UNStudio提出，新的换乘大厅应该拓展成为一台“换乘的机器”含盖公共交通的全套流程，以迎合21世纪的旅行需求。通过与工程公司Arup合作，UNStudio设计了一座无柱的大厅，乘客可以更为直观的使用这座建筑。火车站将在国际、国家和地区三个层面发挥作用，乘客可以在城市之间轻松自由地转换。同时这一项目还是国家级铁路升级工程的一部分，之后会在鹿特丹、代尔夫特、海牙、布雷达、乌得勒支等城市建立新站。

UNStudio创始人、主持建筑师Ben van Berkel说：“阿纳姆中央车站再不仅仅是一座火车站，它已经成为一个移动枢纽。我们想要为车站设计注入新的、有生命的推动力，而不是基于现有的人流和空间活动来设计。新的换乘大厅指引并决定了人们将如何使用和移动。”

ProRail负责该项目的经理Karin van Helmond说：“在漫长的工期中，让项目所有的相关事宜都在正确的轨道上运作是一个巨大的挑战。过去的20年，从经济、技术、政治、社会环境等方方面面带来的挑战数不胜数。我们锁定最终的目标，将注意力放在项目建造上，克服所有的风险与挫折，紧密合作，最终完成了这项史无前例的工作。”

Delivery of such a complex and lengthy project on time, on budget and without design compromise required the courage and determination of both the client, ProRail B.V. and the architects. It is also the result of an exceptional collaborative endeavour by the key stakeholders, ProRail, Contractor Combination Ballast Nedam – BAM, the Ministry of Infrastructure and the Arnhem City Council.

UNStudio began the masterplan in 1996 and completed its first sketch design for the Transfer Terminal back in 2000. After intensively researching passenger flows and transportation modes, UNStudio proposed that the new terminal should expand tobecome a ‘transfer machine’ that incorporates the whole spectrum of public transport, meeting the travel demands of the 21stcentury. Working with structural engineers Arup, a space without columns was produced, forming an architectural expression designed around the ways people will intuitively use the space. The station works on international, national and regional levels, allowing passengers to move between cities intuitively and with ease. This project is part of a countrywide railway upgrade that will see new stations in Rotterdam, Delft, The Hague, Breda and Utrecht.

“Arnhem Central is no longer just a train station. It has become a transfer hub. We wanted to give a new and vital impetus to station design, so rather than merely designing the station around the activities and people flows that already took place there, the expanded architecture of the new Transfer Terminal directs and determines how people use and move around the building” said Ben van Berkel, founder and principal architect of UNStudio.

“To keep all stakeholders on board and on the right track during the long journey to completion was a real challenge” said Karin van Helmond, Project Manager Station Development at ProRail. “In the past twenty years many things changed in the economy, technology, politics and social environment. By focusing on our ultimate goal, the actual building of this magnificent station, we succeeded in overcoming all setbacks and risks and by working closely together we got this unprecedented job done”.

结合阿纳姆自然的坡地景观，UNStudio认为这座建筑已经成为一道流动的景观。在4层地上、2层地下的建筑空间内整合了多种不同的功能。主体空间是面积5,355平方米的大堂，其动感的连续的屋面是整个建筑最重要的特征。

设计过程使用了一系列概念性的结构工具，不仅要为建筑塑造优美的几何形体，还要让其能够容纳多种功能。项目使用的结构之一是一种叫作“V-walls”的混凝土承重结构，不仅能够适应各种不同的网格，也可以为地下空间提供自然采光。这些空间形成了从地下车库前往其他区域的公共通道。

Integrating the naturally sloping landscape distinctive to Arnhem, UNStudio conceived the Transfer Terminal as a flowing, utilitarian landscape of different functions stacked up to four storeys above ground and two below. The key space is the 5,355m2 main Transfer Hall, topped with a dynamic, undulating roof form.

In the development of the design, the practice used a series of conceptual structural tools to mold the geometry of the terminal landscape to accommodate the different programme functions. These include the use of ‘V-walls’, a load-bearing concrete structure that absorbs the differences in the required grids and provides daylight to the below ground levels. The spaces between these elements also form the public access from the underground car park to the other components.

2001年，阿纳姆中央火车站被荷兰政府确认为“新重点项目”之一，将成为城市更新和经济增长的催化剂。可以预见，新的换乘大厅将取代1950年的火车站，到2020年实现每天接待110,000人次，大大助益经济增长。

In 2001, Arnhem Central acquired the status from the Dutch Government as of one of the ‘New Key Projects’ (station areas of national importance). These stations should function as catalysts for urban renewal and economic growth. It is anticipated that the new Transfer Terminal, which replaces a 1950s train station, will facilitate economic growth by enabling a vastly increased daily passenger flow to the city of 110,000 commuters per day in 2020.
