架构师提供的文本描述。为了向新泽西州纽瓦克市服务不足的公民提供至关重要的教育、娱乐和培训服务，纽瓦克住房管理局渴望设计一个可以成为社会收藏家的设施；一个邻居可以聚集、锻炼和接受培训的地方，以提高他们在快速转变的数字经济中获得有报酬就业的机会。TREC(培训、娱乐、教育中心)是一个社区中心，位于工业区和居民区之间，为社区提供重要的服务，而社区的机构很少。

Text description provided by the architects. Motivated to provide vital education, recreation and training services to the underserved citizenry of Newark, New Jersey, the Newark Housing Authority aspired to design a facility that would be a social collector; a place where neighbors could gather, exercise, and receive training to improve their chances for gainful employment in a rapidly transforming digital-based economy. TREC (training, recreation, education center) is a community center set between an industrial and residential zone that houses vital services for a community that has few too institutions in its neighborhood.

这座建筑的三角形是由移动的城市网格产生的，在那里，它与位于纽瓦克南边的一座由奥姆斯特德设计的景观韦奎西公园(WeequaheicPark)相遇。受城市网格变化的启发，建筑物的表现形式是两种平行放置的滑动三角形形式。一个三角形是坚实的，包含娱乐、健身和冥想空间。一个三角形是透明的，包含教育和社区会议空间。它的透明度传达了社会上一种受欢迎和开放的感觉。发光的容器是希望的灯塔，也是聚会、学习和玩耍的好地方。它的定制化设计和全高窗户，主要设置在一个缺乏窗户的公共住房社区内，让过路人目睹生活在其中的活力和丰富的活动，并知道他们已经对自己的未来进行了大量投资。这种适度的城市建筑干预改造了邻里关系，重振了市民的活力，并最终改变了他们的未来，为他们提供了获得成功所需的项目和工具，从而产生了生产力、连通性和积极的变革。

The building’s triangular form results from the shifted urban grid where it meets Weequahic Park, an Olmsted-designed landscape set within the south ward of Newark. Inspired by the shift in the urban grid, the building’s expression is two slipping triangular forms set side by side. One triangle is solid and contains recreation, fitness and meditation spaces. One triangle is transparent and contains education and community meeting spaces. Its transparency conveys a sense of welcome and openness in the community. The luminous container is a beacon of hope and a pleasant place to gather, learn and play. Its bespoke design and full height windows, set largely within a window- starved community of public housing, allow passersby to witness the energy and rich roster of activities housed within and know that a substantive investment has been made in their future. This modest architectural urban intervention reinvents its neighborhood, reinvigorates its citizenry, and ultimately changes their future by providing them access to the programs and tools they need to succeed in a building that engenders productivity, connectedness and positive change.
