架构师提供的文本描述。罗切斯特大学新的数据科学研究所是罗切斯特大学战略计划的标志性焦点，目的是在跨学科研究和创新的新教育模式中突出信息技术。按照LEED银牌标准设计，这个61，000平方英尺的建筑项目包括智能教室和教员办公室、机器人、科学、计算和环境实验室、一个160个座位的礼堂和一个新的信息技术公共资源-戈尔根研究所(Goergen Institute)。

Text description provided by the architects. The new Institute of Data Science at the University of Rochester is the signature focus of the University of Rochester’s Strategic Plan to foreground information technology in a new educational model for cross-disciplinary research and innovation. Designed to LEED Silver standards, the 61,000 square foot building program includes smart classrooms and faculty offices, robotics, science, computation and environmental labs, a 160-seat auditorium and the Goergen Institute, a new public resource for information technology.

协作空间与公共循环图

数据科学研究所(Institute Of Data Science)的聚合是从一个简单的矩形卷中创建的，它是“破碎”的，将两个校园的几何图形结合在一起：它为Genesee河提供了一个新的公众形象，完成了科学。

The massing of Institute of Data Science is created from a simple rectangular volume that is “broken” to unite two campus geometries: it offers a new public face to the Genesee River and completes the Science & Engineering Quadrangle transforming exterior vehicular roadways into a new 2-acre pedestrian and bicycle- oriented campus landscape.

公共流通顺序在外墙上表现出来，大的垂直玻璃窗可以“突破”砖围护层，以反映双高度的协作区域和共享的俯瞰，让自然光进入建筑内部深处。第一层和第二层的双层幕墙与上层挂砖的图形交织在一起，并表达了研究所的使命：创造一种开放和协作的研究文化，利用更新后的科学的绿色空间。

The public circulation sequence is expressed on the exterior facades, with large vertical glazed bays that “breakthrough” the brick envelope to reflect double-height collaboration zones and shared overlooks that admit natural light deep into the building interior. A double height curtain wall on the first and second levels interlocks with the figure of hung brick on the upper floors and expresses the Institute’s mission to create an open and collaborative research culture that engages the green space of the renewed Science & Engineering Quad.

砖块与数据科学为了满足数据科学的研究任务，对砖的设计采取了不同的概念性和建设性的方法。该项目将大学的标准红砖改造成一种设计，将每一块砖视为数字“像素”信息，能够在校园环境中表达其相对于建筑整体几何学的地位。将所教砖皮细分为运行模式和佛兰德键合模式，并利用生成算法在数字三维建模软件中可视化设计，在佛兰芒粘结区突出头砖。这就创建了纹理砖的“数据流”，提供了对河流和校园的大量变化的解读。投影砖块的阴影激活了正面，创造出动态的、纹理的表面，在白天和季节之间传递自然环境数据-这些信息可以在建筑物的砖块表面以多个尺度清晰地识别。窄而宽的穿孔窗口受到二进制0/1的启发，而二进制0/1是编码数据的基础。

Brick and Data Science To meet the Data Sciences research mission, the design takes a different conceptual and constructive approach to brick. This project transforms the University’s standard red brick in a design that treats each brick as a digital “pixel” of information capable of expressing its status in relation to the building’s overall geometry in the campus context. The taught brick skin is subdivided into running and Flemish bond patterns with projecting header bricks in the Flemish bond zones designed using generative algorithms visualized in digital 3D modeling software. This creates “data streams” of textured brickwork which provide a reading of the massing’s inflections to the river and the campus. Shadows from the projecting bricks activate the facades creating dynamic, textural surfaces that communicate natural environmental data across the days and seasons—- information which is made legible at multiple scales across the building’s brick surfaces. Narrow and wide punched windows are inspired by the binary 0 / 1 that is fundamental to encoding data.

在内部的协作空间，社会协作空间被整合成一个庞大的公共循环序列，它遵循建筑的周长，将每一层与双高度的协作区连接起来，可以看到Genesee河和科学。

Collaboration Spaces In the interior, social collaboration spaces are integrated into a generous public circulation sequence, which follows the building perimeter and engages each floor level with double-height collaboration zones with views to the Genesee River and the Science & Engineering Quad. The sequence of collaboration space culminates at a double-height shared lab space with skylights that overlook the Quad and is linked by a new bridge to neighboring Hopeman Hall. Lab spaces are designed adjacent to collaboration spaces, using a modular bay system which supports flexibility and interdisciplinary research projects. All interior lab corridors terminate with window overlooks which 6 admit natural light deep into the building interior.
