for providing the following description:

德国建筑事务所Gerber Architekten最近一举在麦地那获得国际竞赛二等奖，该奖的第一名空缺，第三名被同样来自德国的gmp事务所夺得。除此之外扎哈哈迪德和矶崎新事务所也得到了表彰。

这座位于麦地那圣城，沙漠腹地中的建筑是古兰经新馆。设计利用干涸溪流的地形，在荒漠中打造出一个现代绿洲。整个建筑的屋顶就是伊斯兰文明中基础的的几何形状，上面覆盖着金色的光电元件。景观设计也旨在体现阿拉伯古典园林与古兰经的精髓。

麦地那是一座呈辐射状规划的城市，是继圣城麦加之后伊斯兰教朝圣最重要的城市。建筑面积约为10万平米的新建筑位于城市东北部，距离机场有12公里，周围是炎热而干涸的大地。就是在这样的环境中，Gerber Architekten事务所创造出一个伊斯兰纹饰图案的新文化绿洲。

Gerber Architekten win competition in Madinah

The winners of the invited international competiton for the .Nobel Quran Oasis“ have been announced in  Madinah. Gerber Architekten convinced the jury with their landscape focused design and share the second prize with Ricardo Bofill-Taller de Arquitectura. A first prize was not awarded and the third prize was given to gmp. Zaha Hadid and Arata Isozaki & Associates both received a commendation.

The new museum for the Quran, located in the holy city of Al Madinah al Munawarah, makes a contrast to the barren volvanic landscape with its verdant centre – like a modern oasis. Embedded in a Wadi, the design exploits the topography of this dried-up stream and allows it to be re-experienced as a newly-formed oasis. The roof of the .Nobel Quran Oasis“ will be constructed as a three dimensional sculpture of simple geometric

figures reminiscent of traditional Islamic ornamentation and will be entirely covered with gold photovoltaic elements. The landscape design refers to the classical gardens of the Arab world and illustrates central elements of Quran teaching.

Madinah al-Munawarah, also known as the radiant city, is after Makkah the most important city for pilgrims of the Islamic faith. The site of around 200,000 m2 intended for the .Nobel Quran Oasis“ is located to the north-east of the city centre, about 12 km from the Prophet’s mosque and in the immediate vicinity of the Prince Muhammad ibn Abdul Aziz airport. The surrounding area consists of a volcanic landscape and the dried up Wadi. Using this topography as a starting point, Gerber Architekten have developed a verdant cultural oasis at it‘s centre.

The shape of the building is derived from traditional Islamic ornamentation. Simple geometric figures are combined in concentric rings to create a sculptural unity.

人们需要从两侧的”溪流峡谷”进入截断”河道”的博物馆，首先到达一个包含地下中央广场与大堂的中庭，光线通过屋顶照射进内部。建筑中心是一个展示空间，该空间的五根柱子代表伊斯兰教的五个内核（清真言，礼拜，天课，索姆，朝觐）。三条互动路线串起伊斯兰与古兰经的文化及历史。金色屋顶让各个展区都充满着戏剧性的光氛围。直接，间接，过滤等等光效果课通过改变天花板的高度而得以实现。

会议中心，图书馆，礼堂，神学院，媒体中心，教育中心都放在中庭周围的双层空间中。这些空间之间的天井作为植物园有着各种不同的主题并能向游客传授不同的古兰经植物教学。

这个10万平米的建筑成本估价约为1亿7500万美元。

The museum will be accessed via two terraced entrance areas at each end of the former Wadi. The visitor enters the underground central plaza, a foyer which extends over all levels as an atrium, receiving natural daylight through the perforated roof.

The heart of the building will be the exhibition space in the first floor. It is based on five cores, the five pillars of islam (Shahada, Salat, Zakat, Sawm und Hajj). The column-free exhibition spaces are organized into three interactive routes, which interpret the history of Islamic culture and the Quran. The dramatic golden roof landscape produces a variety of lighting atmospheres inside the exhibition areas. Direct, indirect and filtered light is precisely deployed and the atmosphere is intensified by changing ceiling heights.

A conference centre for trade fairs, a library, an auditorium, seminary rooms, a mediatheque and educational area are placed on two levels around the plaza. Patio courtyards with different themes are placed between the different areas, to function not only as botanical gardens but also to inform the different target groups of visitors about plants in Quran teaching.

The building has a total area of 100,000m2 GFA and the building costs are estimated to be $175 million US.

一个敏感植入风景地中的独特地标。

The Nobel Quran Oasis is envisioned as a unique place, sensitively inserted into the landscape but also visible from a distance as a typographic icon.
