架构师提供的文本描述。作为安特卫普码头大规模重建的一部分,西开河沿岸有六座住宅塔。这两座离城市最近的塔楼是在2009年由巴塞尔实践公司迪纳和迪纳完成的。他们的玻璃正面不规则的开窗和微妙的颜色差异提供了城市设计所要求的巨大质量,但它们也与更大范围内较小规模的码头建筑的颜色和窗口图案有着意想不到的相似之处。大卫·齐波菲尔建筑师(David Chipperfield Architect)在位于巴塞尔诺华(Novartis)校区的建筑中,设计了两座安静、风格独立的高楼,与其建筑的白色预制混凝土结构相同。我们的贡献是一对非常简单的砖块形式,在5号塔楼的水平重点,它面对新的Limaplein购物广场和垂直的6号塔,它面对着港口对面,并完成了合奏。佛兰德砖的多样性和范围允许微妙的颜色之间的差异。5号塔是黄色的,6号塔是红色的,这是砖块的经典颜色,但选择的色调使它们的颜色非常模糊。垂直和水平的重点是非常简单和明显的突出砖块。街角是开放的,6号塔的顶部向天空延伸,给人一种建筑延伸到空间的感觉。我们的目的是使这些塔看起来既物质又不真实。第六塔加冕一个点燃的金属网屏幕。景观由米歇尔·德斯维涅设计。
Text description provided by the architects. As part of the extensive redevelopment of the Antwerp Docks six residential towers are ranged along the waterfront of the Westkaai. The two towers closest to the city were completed by Basel practice Diener and Diener in 2009. The irregular fenestration and subtle colour differences of their glass facades provide the monumental quality required by the urban design, but they also have unexpected similarities to the colour and window patterns of the smaller scale dockland buildings in the wider vicinity. For the centre of the range David Chipperfield Architects have designed a pair of calm and stylistically self-contained towers in the same fine white pre-cast concrete of their building in the Novartis campus in Basel. Our contribution is a pair of monumentally simple forms in brick, with horizontal emphasis in tower 5, which faces the new Limaplein shopping square and vertical in tower 6 that faces out across the harbour and finishes the ensemble. The diversity and range of Flemish bricks allow a subtle colour difference between the pair. Tower 5 is yellow and tower 6 red, the classic colours of brickwork, but chosen in tones that make their colour highly ambiguous. Vertical and horizontal emphases are created very simply and obviously by projecting bricks. Corners are left open and the top of tower 6 extends up against the sky to give a sense of the building extending into space. Our intention is to make the towers seem both material and unreal. Tower 6 is crowned with a lit metal mesh screen. The landscape is designed by Michel Desvigne.
