Text description provided by the architects. This project acts as a strong, fort-like home for abused children.

汤斯维尔詹姆斯库克大学的儿童法案项目着眼于建筑师詹姆斯·比瑞尔20世纪60年代末在校园里发现的地基建筑的背景。其中一些以非模板混凝土和灰色面板混凝土砌块，具有简单的几何形状和塑料形式。

The Act for Kids project at James Cook University in Townsville looked to the context of architect James Birrell’s late 1960s foundation buildings found on the campus. Some of these in off-form concrete and grey face concrete blockwork, with simple geometries and plasticised forms.

在公共领域，这些都是很好的品质-坚定和压倒一切的喜悦感。这些被认为是合适的新建筑，容纳管理，日托，最重要的是，一套治疗空间。

In the public realm, these are fine qualities – firmness with an overriding sense of delight. These were thought to be suitable qualities for the new building accommodating administration, day care and most importantly, a suite of therapy spaces.

这个设计被认为是一个混凝土街区的周界，里面的圣殿里有治疗室，围绕着两棵树雕刻，以回应景观给治疗带来的良好记录的好处。

The design is conceived as a concrete block perimeter, with therapy rooms in the inner sanctum, sculpted around two stands of trees, in response to the well documented benefit that landscape brings to therapy.

这个新项目使比瑞尔的方法朝着一个新的方向发展。他的建筑具有规模和庄重，适合它们作为主要公共建筑的作用。新项目询问儿童的公共领域议程可能是什么样的-不仅仅是任何儿童，还有那些处于这种环境中的儿童，以便需要这种设施。

The new project takes Birrell’s approach in a new direction. His buildings are of a scale and gravitas suited to their role as major public buildings. The new project asks what a public realm agenda for children might be like – and not just any children, but those who are in the kind of circumstances so as to require this facility.

采用牛鼻混凝土砌块作为标准单元.这是为了实现两种模式-双担架堆叠键，和双担架-担架键。前者使用在前面的立面，在那里单位的建筑可以感觉到。后者用在侧壁上，在山坡上追逐轮廓线。这两道菜在场地的急转弯处很特殊。

A bull-nosed concrete block was used as the standard unit. This was laid to achieve two patterns – a double stretcher stack bond, and a double stretcher-stretcher bond. The former is used on the front façade where the unit by unit construction of the building can be felt. The latter is used on the side walls, chasing the contours up the hill. The two courses meet idiosyncratically at the acute corner of the site.

其他材料、形式和空间混合了孩子们的世界和“高级建筑”。

Other materials, forms and spaces hybridise the world of kids and ‘high architecture’.

作为对其功能的回应，该建筑采用了Birrell建立的基础方法，并通过进一步简化的几何学和手段，解决了一座建筑的坚固和愉悦的平衡。

In response to its function, the building has taken the foundational approach established by Birrell and with further simplified geometries and means, resolved a building with a balance of firmness and delight.
