架构师提供的文本描述。夏洛特和唐纳德测试馆是一个3700平方英尺的多功能空间，位于达拉斯植物园和植物学协会的“一个有品位的地方”。该设施俯瞰一个3.5英亩的花园，里面装满了水果、蔬菜、草药和鲜花。展馆内设有示范厨房，为成人和儿童提供烹饪课、示范、教育方案和特别活动的场所。

Text description provided by the architects. The Charlotte and Donald Test Pavilion is a 3,700 square foot multi-function space located at “A Tasteful Place” in the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Society. The facility overlooks a 3.5-acre garden filled with fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers. A demonstration kitchen in the pavilion serves as a site for cooking classes, demonstrations, educational programs and special events for adults and children.

测试馆位于遗址的南缘，与北方四个菜园的方向一致。这座建筑由一个简单的石灰石盒子组成，嵌在玻璃外壳里。一个分面的木天花板向外延伸，从石盒的顶部向外延伸到外面。低铁玻璃使自然光从北方的动画空间和提供清晰的景观花园。所有的石材包层和外部木料都是本地采购和制造的。

The Test Pavilion is situated at the southern edge of the site and aligns with the orientation of four potager gardens to the north. The building is composed of a simple limestone box inserted into a glass enclosure. A faceted wood ceiling extends diagonally outward from the top of the stone box to the exterior soffit. Low iron glazing allows natural light from the north to animate the space and provide clear views toward the gardens. All of the stone cladding and exterior wood soffit are locally sourced and fabricated.

在计划中，展馆内有一个开放的集合空间，一个厨师设计的示范厨房，一个视听室，一个储藏室/服务室和洗手间。后置区是为满足餐饮需求而设计的，如有必要，可包括在内.大型木卷帘门在示范厨房提供各种功能选项，视活动情况而定。门可以完全打开，用于烹饪示范，也可以为婚礼招待会关闭，以解决程序要求。

In the plan, the pavilion houses an open assembly space, a chef-designed demonstration kitchen, an audio/visual room, a storage/service room and restrooms. The back-of-house area is designed to accommodate catering needs and can be covered if necessary. Large wood rolling doors provide a variety of functional options at the demonstration kitchen depending on the event. The doors can be fully opened for a cooking demonstration or closed for a wedding reception, solving a programmatic requirement.

展馆还包括一个可供广播的视听制作能力，可以直接传送到世界各地的电视网络。这使植物园能够与世界各地的机构分享教育方案。夏洛特和唐纳德测试馆旨在补充花园的活动，为全年的教育和娱乐活动提供更多的机会。

The pavilion also contains a broadcast-ready audiovisual production capability which allows a direct feed to television networks around the world. This allows the Arboretum to share educational programming with institutions worldwide. The Charlotte and Donald Test Pavilion is intended to complement the activities in the garden by providing additional opportunities for educational and recreational events year round.
