架构师提供的文本描述。由LMN建筑师设计的声音传输的华盛顿大学车站，不仅是一个轻轨车站，还为蒙特拉克大道和太平洋街交汇处的城市结构增添了多个侧面。

Text description provided by the architects. More than a light rail station, Sound Transit’s University of Washington Station, designed by LMN Architects, adds multiple facets to the urban fabric at the intersection of Montlake Boulevard and Pacific Street.

从自行车到公共汽车到行人到火车的交通方式结合在一起，156，000平方英尺的车站的多学科设计在西雅图最繁忙的一个有问题的街道交叉口创造了一个统一的移动解决方案，并提供了一个独特的通道，通过它的上述和低级的经验到UW校园。

Knitting together transportation modalities from bike to bus to pedestrians to trains, the multi-disciplinary design of the 156,000-square-foot station creates a unified mobility solution at a problematic street intersection, one of the busiest in Seattle, and provides a unique gateway to the UW campus through its above and below-grade experiences

该项目包括一个100英尺地下的火车站台，通过两层玻璃入口的自动扶梯和电梯进入。在此过程中，用户穿过一个高耸的垂直循环室，里面有利奥·索尔·伯克的艺术装置“Subterraneum”，他与LMN合作，将建筑和雕塑融为一体，表达车站墙壁周围的地质层土壤。

The project includes a train platform 100 feet underground, accessed by escalators and elevators from a two-level glass entrance structure at grade. Along the way, users pass through a tall, vertical circulation chamber featuring “Subterraneum,” an art installation by Leo Saul Berk, who worked with LMN to blend architecture and sculpture in expressing the geological layers of soil surrounding the station walls.

车站的新自行车和人行天桥-楼梯、自动扶梯和坡道连接了入口结构的两层-在蒙特拉克大道(Montlake Boulevard)横跨大学校园时，蜿蜒曲折。

The station’s new bicycle and pedestrian bridge — with stairs, escalators and ramps connecting both levels of the entrance structure — curves gently as it spans over Montlake Boulevard to land on the university campus.

该项目的每一个要素都被仔细考虑为一个更大的整体的组成部分，它建立在一个复杂的应用网络中，包括校园、周边社区和重要的大学目的地，如Husky体育场、阿拉斯加航空竞技场和UW医疗中心。

Each element of the project is carefully considered as a component of a larger whole, set within a complex web of uses that encompasses the campus, the surrounding neighborhoods, and important university destinations such as Husky Stadium, Alaska Airlines Arena and the UW Medical Center.

“LMN在华盛顿大学车站(UniversityofWashington Station)的工作非常出色，而且复杂得令人难以置信，”华盛顿大学(University Of Washington)负责校园和资本规划的大学建筑师兼副教务长丽贝卡·巴恩斯(Rebecca Barnes)说。他说：“这是一项伟大的建筑和城市设计成就，这些成就来自于许多富有想象力和洞察力的公民领导。”

“LMN’s work at the University of Washington Station beautifully and intricately navigates an almost unbelievably complex urban node,” says Rebecca Barnes, university architect and associate vice provost for campus and capital planning at the University of Washington. “The outcome is a great architectural and urban design achievement borne of many acts of imaginative and insightful civic leadership.”

地下公共空间

Public space underground

在100英尺以下的地面和火车站台之间，循环路径遵循精心安排的时刻序列，不断引导用户了解车站的整体体积、结构和内部流量。

Between the surface and the train platform 100 feet below, circulation paths follow an orchestrated sequence of moments, constantly orienting users to the station’s overall volume, structure and internal flow.

各个层次之间的视觉联系创造了一种强烈的位置感。玻璃入口结构框架周围环境的看法，包括华盛顿湖和喀斯喀德山。透明度也可以作为一个光井，使日光下到阁楼的水平。

Visual connections between levels create a strong sense of place. The glass entrance structure frames views of the surrounding context, including Lake Washington and the Cascade Mountains. The transparency also serves as a light well, allowing daylight to reach down to the mezzanine level.

彩色陶瓷墙砖充满活力的绿色运动线的阁楼和售票机区域。一种绿色的架空服务电枢-集成了灯具和公共扬声器-在地面和平台之间的循环路径中提供了清晰的路径。

Colored ceramic wall tiles animate the mezzanine and ticket machine areas with energetic green motion lines. A green overhead service armature — integrating light fixtures and public-address speakers — provides clear wayfinding throughout the circulation path between surface and platform.

每一件作品一起工作，建立在中央循环室的“地下”的高潮经验。在这些公共空间中，机械基础设施在很大程度上是看不见的。

Each piece works together and builds up the climactic experience of “Subterraneum” in the central circulation chamber. Mechanical infrastructure is largely invisible from these public spaces.

隐藏在幕后，一个紧急烟雾通风系统，轨道交叉区域和相关的维修空间是几乎一样大的流通区域，在车站的低级足迹。

Concealed behind the scenes, an emergency smoke ventilation system, track crossover area and associated maintenance spaces are nearly as large by volume as the circulation areas in the station’s below-grade footprint.

两个椭圆形通风塔出现在上面，锚定结构的每一端，并通过战略使用穿孔屏幕淡出视线。这些塔为整个隧道的紧急烟雾通风系统服务，在紧急情况下，每一个站的风扇一起工作，在发生紧急情况时将空气和烟雾一起移动。

Two elliptical-shaped ventilation towers emerge above-grade, anchoring each end of the structure, and fade from view through the strategic use of perforated screens. The towers serve the emergency smoke ventilation system for the entire tunnel, along with fans at every station on the line that work in tandem to move air and smoke in the event of an emergency.

在车站体验的中心，自动扶梯和玻璃电梯穿过55英尺高的中央大厅，这是这个城市最高的室内空间之一。

At the heart of the station experience, the escalators and glass elevator pass through a 55-foot-high central chamber, one of the tallest interior volumes in the city.

与艺术家利奥索尔伯克，一个北威尔士大学毕业生，以探索地下主题的混合媒体雕塑和装置，“次特兰尼姆”混合雕塑和建筑探索机会的地下条件。背光的，穿孔的金属面板覆盖在房间的墙壁上，显示出代表地质层的发光图案，同时充满周围的光线。房间墙壁的垂直角度沿长轴变化，创造了一个扭曲的体积，从不同的角度提供不同的艺术作品的观点，整个站。

Working with artist Leo Saul Berk, a UW graduate known for exploring subterranean themes in mixed-media sculpture and installations, “Subterraneum” blends sculpture and architecture in exploring the opportunities of the underground condition. Backlit, perforated metal panels clad the chamber walls, displaying luminous patterns representing geological layers, while suffusing the space with ambient light. The vertical angle of the chamber walls changes along the long axis, creating a twisting volume that offers varying views of the artwork from different vantage points throughout the station.

四个自动扶梯和两个玻璃电梯柱在这个高耸的空间中溢出，提供了一个动态的体验艺术时，骑上或下。在阁楼和舱底的各种有利位置提供了一个机会，在观察人们进进出出的火车站台。

Four escalators and two glass elevator columns spill through this soaring space, providing a dynamic experience of the art while riding up or down. Various vantage points at the mezzanine and at the bottom of the chamber offer a chance to take in the views, while observing people coming and going to the train platform.
