亚马逊公司的新总部“螺旋”塔 | NBBJ、Amazon
amazon has unveiled proposed development plans for the second phase of its arlington, virginia headquarters. designed by NBBJ — the architecture firm behind amazon’s seattle spheres — the project’s centerpiece is ‘the helix’, a tower filled with a variety of work environments for amazon employees. as with ‘the spheres’, the building allows staff to be immersed in nature with lush gardens and native trees populating the entirety of the spiraling structure.
亚马逊已经公布了弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿总部第二阶段的拟议开发计划。 该项目是由NBBJ（亚马逊西雅图球行建筑的设计公司）设计的“螺旋线”，这是一座为亚马逊员工提供各种工作环境的塔。 与“球”形建筑一样，该建筑物使员工可以沉浸在郁郁葱葱的花园和原生树木的大自然中，这些树木遍布整个螺旋结构。
‘a true double helix in shape and structure, this unique building will feature two walkable paths of landscaped terrain that will spiral up the outside of the building, featuring plantings you may find on a hike in the blue ridge mountains of virginia,’ says amazon. the company says that ‘the helix’ will also host an artist-in-residence program for local creative talents. meanwhile, tours of the structure several weekends a month will allow the public to experience the building in person.
亚马逊说：“这是一座真正的形状和结构上双重的螺旋形建筑，将有两条可步行的景观形态路径，将沿建筑外部盘旋上升，其中沿途路径上的植物可能是在弗吉尼亚州蓝岭山脉徒步旅行时可发现的植物” 。该公司表示，“ 螺旋塔”还将为本地创意人才举办艺术家驻场计划。同时，组织每个月的几个周末参观该建筑，将使公众亲身体验这座建筑。
a variety of open spaces totaling more than 2.5 acres will be accessible for public use. an amphitheater facing a central green can host outdoor concerts, farmers’ markets, and movies in the park, while a forest grove offers shaded areas for relaxation on a hot day. elsewhere, retail pavilions and restaurants will be conveniently located throughout the site. the plans also include room for a childcare center, a dog run, and a food truck area with outdoor seating. meanwhile, a 20,000-square-foot space can support educational initiatives of different sizes as well as community meetings.
项目总计2.5英亩以上的各种开放空间将可供公众使用。圆形剧场面对中央绿色公共空间，可以在其中举办户外音乐会，农贸市场交易活动和电影剧场，而林间小树林则是阴凉的地方，在炎热的天气中可以放松身心。在其他地方，零售亭和餐厅将位于整个项目用地的便利位置。该计划还包括一个儿童保育中心，一条狗跑道和一个带户外座位的食品货车区。同时，一个20000平方英尺的空间可以支持不同规模的教育计划以及社区会议。
from an environmental standpoint, the project includes an all-electric central heating and cooling system that will run on 100% renewable energy from a solar farm. this aligns with amazon’s climate pledge to be net-zero carbon by 2040.
从环保的角度来看，该项目包括一个全电中央供暖和制冷系统，该系统将使用太阳能发电站，100％可再生能源发电。这符合亚马逊的气候承诺，即到2040年实现零碳净排放。
