架构师提供的文本描述。2008年，不丹是世界上第一个采用国民总收入(国民幸福总值)而不是国内生产总值的国家。为了庆祝这一点，不丹王国和政府决定建立一个幸福中心，每个人都可以通过冥想参观和分享他们关于幸福生活的经验和哲学，并学习如何快乐和独立于物质。

Text description provided by the architects. In 2008, Bhutan has been the first country in the world applying the GNH rate (Gross National Happiness) instead of GDP. To celebrate this, The Bhutan Royal and Government have decided to build a center for happiness, where everyone can visit and share their experiences and philosophy about happiness living through meditation, and learn how to be happy and independent from materials.

在四个主要国民总收入比率中，有两个是环境保护和保护文化和身份。因此，不丹政府要求该中心必须是环境友好型的，并通过设计来代表当地的当代和传统文化特征。

Two in the four main GNH rates are environment protection and preserving culture and identity. Therefore the Bhutan Government has required the GHN center to be environmental friendly and representing local contemporary and traditional cultural identity through design.

计划/科

设计原则是不同的天然材料之间的和谐：土石-木材；室内和室外空间；技术与传统乡土经验之间的和谐。半米长的石墙和土墙确保了寒冷的冬天保持热量。混凝土和木梁结构；太阳能和水通过自然过滤系统，帮助节约能源，增加人与自然的联系。现有的松树被用来建造行政和住宿中心。采用生态敏感的方法，建筑物是自然系统的一部分。

The design principles are the harmonies among different natural materials: soil – stone – wood; between indoor and outdoor spaces; between technology and traditional vernacular experiences. The half meter wall made of stone and soil ensure keeping the heat in cold winter. The concrete and wooden beam structure; solar energy and water through a natural filter system have helped save energy and increase the connection between human and nature. Existing pine trees were used to build the administration and accommodation centers. With the ecologically sensitive approach, the buildings are part of the natural system.

主禅堂的灵感来自大地和天堂的和声和亚洲符号，第一层是圆形，第二层是方形。这样做的目的是为人类创造一种平衡的生活，在这种生活中，人们不是主宰，而是与自然和平共处，相互支持，创造一个可持续的宇宙。

The main meditation hall is inspired from the harmonies and Asian symbols of the earth and heaven with the first storey in round shape and the second in square shape. The idea is to create a balance life for human in which people do not dominate but live peacefully with nature and support each other to create a sustainable universe. 

具有月食形状的会议屋是从佛陀树中灵感而来的，同时在当代语境中使用了典型的白话装饰细节。

The convention house with the eclipse shape is inspired from the Buddha tree together with the use of typical vernacular decoration details in a contemporary context.

整个站点稍微位于美丽的松林内，成为它不可分割的一部分。开幕式于2015年10月举行，不丹公主和皇家出席了开幕式。不丹幸福中心现在运作良好，受到不丹人民和国际游客的欢迎。

The entire site slightly locates within the beautiful pine forest, becoming an integral part of it. The opening ceremony took place in October 2015 with the attendance of the Princess and Royal of Bhutan. The Bhutan Center of Happiness is now well operated and welcome by the people of Bhutan as well as international tourists.
