架构师提供的文本描述。约翰·普蒂克公司已经完成了普雷斯顿汽车站的翻修工程，这是一座著名的二级上市的布鲁塔里式建筑，由发展局设计，1969年完工。为了恢复强大的原始设计，JohnPutticAssociates已经削减了内部和返回的特点，他们原来的材料和调色板。总体上，现有的元素已经被仔细修复，其中许多都处于良好状态，但由于建筑物内的视觉混乱而受到损害。

Text description provided by the architects. John Puttick Associates has completed the refurbishment of Preston Bus Station, a celebrated Grade II listed Brutalist building designed by BDP and completed in 1969. In order to reinstate the powerful original design, John Puttick Associates has pared down the interior and returned features to their original material and colour palette. Overall existing elements have been carefully restored, many of which were in good condition but had been compromised due to visual clutter within the building.

巴士站的入口已予巩固，并设立了一个主要入口大堂，使改善方向和流量的建筑物在空间上协调一致。此外，当局亦已把重点由优先安排车辆通道改为更现代的安排，以利于行人通道。

The entry points to the Bus Station have been consolidated, and a main entrance hall established to give spatial coherence to the building improving sense of orientation and flow. There has also been a change of emphasis from prioritising vehicle access, as was done in the 1960s, to a more contemporary arrangement which favours pedestrian access.

从城市化的角度来看，约翰·普蒂克联合公司(John PutticeAssociates)已经安排了这座大楼，这样它的西侧有一个新的座位和等候区，面向公共广场。2019年完工后，这一广场也将改善与市中心的连接感。东边是公共汽车的大门。大厦的核心是资讯中心、咖啡厅、商店及其他设施，包括巴士公司办事处。

From an urbanistic perspective, John Puttick Associates has arranged the building so that its West side with a new seating and waiting area faces the public square which when completed in 2019 will also improve a sense of connection with the city centre. The East side is devoted to the bus gates. At the core of the building are the information centre, cafe, shops and other facilities including the bus company offices.

约翰·普蒂克公司在可能的情况下，充分利用了原有的材料和配件。建筑师们从遗留下来的公共汽车门隔板中设计了Iroko长凳，作为空间重组的一部分。在问讯台接待处也使用了同样的木材，为经常接触的区域带来了触觉的温暖。原来弯曲的长凳已经恢复了。倍耐力原来的钟表和橡胶地板还在。

John Puttick Associates has made the most of original materials and fittings wherever possible.  The architects have designed Iroko benches from the bus gate dividers left over as part of the reorganisation of the space. The same timber has also been used at the information point reception desk, bringing tactile warmth to areas frequently touched. The original curved benches have been restored. The original clocks and rubber flooring by Pirelli are still in place.

新元素符合1960年代设计的精神。例如，标志设计的橙色和黑色，反映了第一次使用的车站，同时也重新引入英国铁路类型的脸，这是最初使用的。更大的干预措施-例如新的信息和行政领域-以原有建筑的功利主义精神作了详细说明，但显然是目前的情况。

New elements are in keeping with the spirit of the 1960s design. For example, the signage is designed in orange and black colours that reflect the ones first used at the station whilst also reintroducing the British Rail type face which was originally used throughout. Larger interventions - such as the new information and administrative area – have been detailed in the utilitarian spirit of the original building while clearly being of the present.

除了所需的维修工程外，这座建筑物的外部也有了一些变化。这些措施包括通过移除原玻璃及其框架来替换整个大厅水平的玻璃，并以相同轮廓的多层玻璃来取代这些玻璃，以保持原始的美学。一楼正面的木结构门框已被青铜色阳极铝框架门所取代，这些门的色调与以前使用的木材相似，同时允许自动化。

The exterior of the building has had some changes in addition to required maintenance works. These include replacing the concourse level glazing throughout by removing the original glass and its framing and replacing these with mullions of the same profile to maintain the original aesthetic. The timber framed doors on the ground floor facade have been replaced with bronze coloured anodised aluminium framed doors that are similar in tone to the wood that was used previously while allowing for automation.

约翰·普蒂克协会与二十世纪协会密切合作，以确定恢复普雷斯顿公交车站具有历史意义的特征的方法。车站在整个建筑工程中一直在运作。明年，相邻的新建筑2600平方米的青年区大楼也将由约翰·普蒂克联合公司完成。

John Puttick Associates worked closely with The Twentieth Century Society to determine the approach to the restoration of historically significant features of Preston Bus Station. The Station has remained in operation throughout the building works. Next year sees the completion of the adjacent new build 2600 square metre Youth Zone building also by John Puttick Associates.
