Text description provided by the architects. History and context

赫比耶斯市社区成立于1995年。它使Vendée地区的8个市镇能够分享经济发展、城市规划、环境和生活水平等领域的资源和能力。和其他的Vendée人一样，Pays des Herbiers是一个具有强烈身份感的农村地区。它在经济上也非常强大，有许多在国家一级活跃的公司。

The Community of Municipalities of the Pays des Herbiers was created in 1995. It enables eight municipalities in the region of Vendée to share resources and competencies in the fields of economic development, town planning, environment, and standard of living. Like the rest of the Vendée, the Pays des Herbiers is a rural area with a strong sense of identity. It is also economically very robust and home to numerous companies active at the national level.

新的赫特尔公社(市镇社区办事处)是19世纪中叶赫比耶斯市政厅的延伸，坐落在一个公共公园里。新建筑的当代建筑为其公民提供了一种自定义的、高性能的工具，它将景观、建筑遗产和现代化融为一体。它体现了该区域的领土影响和高级别的地方合作。

The new Hôtel des Communes (Community of Municipalities offices) was built as an extension of the Herbiers City Hall, a mid-19th century mension situated in a public park. The contemporary architecture of the new building provides its citizens with a custom, high-performing tool that reconciles landscape, architectural heritage, and modernity. It is an expression of the region’s territorial influence and of the high level local cooperation.

景观雕塑

Landscape Sculpture

一种接近陆地艺术的建筑

A Building that approaches Land Art

赫特尔公社代表着一种接近土地艺术的雕塑式建筑。这是一座聪明而壮观的建筑，它充分利用了它的景点-公共公园、树木和市政厅-的优势，轻轻地将自己插入景观之中。

The Hôtel des Communes represents a sculptural kind of architecture that approaches Land Art. It is a smart and spectacular building that capitalizes on the strengths of its site – the public park, the trees, and the current city hall – to insert itself gently into the landscape.

柔软和运动，它缠绕在现有的树木周围，围绕着它们来保护它们。它向上推到天空，向外延伸到公园，找到了它的位置，却没有扰乱这个地方的和谐。它轻轻地、优雅地倾斜，它的皮肤利用太阳的路径来达到它的最大利益。

Supple and athletic, it coils around the existing trees, surrounding them to preserve them. It pushes up into the sky and outward into the park, finding its place without upsetting the harmoniousness of the place. It slaloms lightly and gracefully, and its skin uses the path of the sun to its best advantage.

尽管它很大，但它只揭示了它整体的一部分。与周围建筑物成比例的可见边与城市景观融为一体，而它的曲线和纹理则使建筑在城镇中成为一种独特的事件。作为一种装置，它隐藏在周围景观的反射下，就像变色龙一样。

Despite its size, it only reveals part of its whole. The visible sides, which are proportionate to the surrounding buildings, blend into the urban landscape, while its curves and texture make the building a singular event in the town. As an installation, it hides from view under the reflection of the surrounding landscape on its skin, as if it were a chameleon.

在树间工作

Working among the trees

建筑形式的智能在于它增加了立面的尺寸，从而增加了工作空间，同时将技术领域缩小到了必要的最低限度。H tel des Community的办事处被归类为紧凑、有效的群组，以产生更大的工作协同增效作用。底层设有提供公共服务的办公室(民事登记员、婚姻大厅等)。上层的空间是根据单元办公室的原则设计的，是有效和灵活的。弯曲和反弯曲循环连接一个空间和另一个空间。他们允许人们通过建筑物或进入现有的市政厅流畅，以一种连续性的感觉，始终沉浸在周围的公园的绿色植物。

The intelligence of the building’s form resides in the way it increases the size of the façade and thus the workspaces while reducing the technical areas to their necessary minimum. Offices in the Hôtel des Communes are grouped into compact, effective clusters to create greater work synergies. The ground floor hosts the offices that provide public services (civil registrar, marriage hall, etc.). The spaces on the upper floors were designed to be effective and flexible, on the basis of the principle of modular offices. The curving and counter-curving circulations connect one space to another. They allow people to walk through the building or enter the existing town hall fluidly, with a sense of continuity, all the while remaining immersed in the surrounding park’s greenery.
