架构师提供的文本描述。位于明尼苏达州南部的农田和沿I-35走廊的直流河流域之间，设计团队最初被现场的改造质量所打动。该网站允许疲惫的旅行者伸展双腿，在宁静的树林中淹没自己。建筑、展馆和场地的结构都是为了提高人们对这个地方的体验。

Text description provided by the architects. Located between the agricultural fields of southern Minnesota and the Straight River Valley along the I-35 corridor, the design team was initially struck by the transformative quality of the site. The site allows weary travelers the ability to stretch their legs and submerse themselves in a serene wooded river setting. The building, pavilions and site are structured to enhance one’s experience of this place.

直流河北行安全休息区是在其使用寿命结束时对现有设施的完全替换，同时也大大扩大了卡车的停车能力。主要建筑有洗手间、自动售货机和信息，而两个独立的展馆创造了安静的座位区域。耐久性和低维护是客户驱动的需求，因为偏远地区和大量使用这种类型的设施需要忍受。

Straight River Northbound Safety Rest Area is a complete replacement of an existing facility at the end of its useful life, along with a substantial expansion of truck parking capacity. The main building houses restrooms, vending and information, while two free-standing pavilions create quiet seating areas. Durability and low maintenance were client driven requirements due to a remote area and the heavy use facilities of this type need to endure.

主休息区的建筑与大型商业和POV停车场的二重性和对比，与宁静的林地形成鲜明的对比。当一个人从停车场靠近设施时，大型倾斜的不锈钢面板反射停在后台的商业拖车，同时引导游客进入一个入口，直接看到远处树木茂密的河谷。

The main rest area building plays with the duality and contrast of the large commercial and POV parking areas against the serene wooded site. As one approaches the facility from the parking area, large canted stainless-steel panels reflect the commercial trailers parked in the background while directing the visitor to a portal with direct views to the wooded river valley beyond.

在该设施之外，一个巨大的高架露台可以看到河谷的全景。露台被包裹在与入口相同的不锈钢面板中，尽管这一次它们反映了周围的地点，使游客沉浸在树木茂密的河谷中。

Beyond the facility, a large elevated terrace offers panoramic views to the river valley. The terrace is wrapped in the same stainless-steel panels as the entry, though this time they reflect the surrounding site, immersing the visitor within the wooded river valley.

新的景观由本地草甸植物、矮、高草原和低割草休闲区组成。新的步道从停车场连接到现有的小径，这些小径把它们的路吹到树林里更深的地方。除了主建筑和展馆外，该项目还包括一个游乐场、一个宠物运动区和一个维护仓库。

The new landscape is composed of native meadow plantings, short- and tall-grass prairies and low-mow fescue recreational areas. New walking paths connect from the parking lot to existing trails which wind their way deeper into the woods. In addition to the main building and pavilions, the project includes a playground, a pet exercise area and maintenance storage building.
