架构师提供的文本描述。这个胶合板展馆是为在早稻田大学举办的2015年科学和工程节而设计和建造的。由于它是建在校园的中央庭院和展示给公众，这是必须的设计，不妨碍行人的流动。对现有预算和人力的严格限制使得设计必须有效地使用材料并允许快速装配。此外，设计还体现了艺术节的年度主题：“展开！科学与工程之环”。我们到达的设计设法满足了这些要求，以一个网格的胶合板的形状，以立方体的形状，四面球形空心。

Text description provided by the architects. This plywood pavilion was designed and built for the 2015 Science and Engineering Festival at Waseda University. As it was to be built in the campus' central courtyard and displayed to the public, it was imperative that the design not impede the flow of pedestrians. Tight limits to the available budget and manpower necessitated that the design make efficient use of materials and allow for quick assembly. Furthermore, the design was to embody the festival's annual theme: "Spread Out! The Ring of Science and Engineering". The design we arrived upon managed to meet these requirements, in the form of a grid of plywood panels in the shape of a cubic volume with the four sides spherically hollowed out.

设计过程充分利用了三维CAD。这使我们能够将设计归结为细节，模拟组装过程，并快速反映与团队其他成员共享的任何设计改进。另一方面，实际的制作是以老式的方式进行的：手工使用纸模板和拼图锯。

The design process made full use of 3D CAD. This enabled us to work out the design down to the fine details, simulate the process of assembly, and quickly reflect any design improvements to be shared with the rest of the team. On the other hand, the actual fabrication was done the old-fashioned way: by hand using paper stencils and jigsaws.

虽然完成的展馆只向公众展示了两天，但它得到了压倒性的积极反应。游客们会兴高采烈地漫步在建筑中，从不同的角度拍摄照片。他们还很好地利用了设计类似的桌子和凳子。当阳光穿过网格时，点缀的阴影让人想起透过树叶过滤的光线，而连续的年轮的节奏感给游客带来了一种奇特的振奋感。总之，这个项目是一个巨大的成功，并成为一个伟大的经验，每一个参与者。

While the completed pavilion was on display to the public for a mere two days, it received an overwhelmingly possitive response. Visitors would gleefully wander in and about the structure, snapping photos from various angles. They also made good use of the similarly designed tables and stools strewn about. The dappled shadows cast as sunlight fell through the grid brings to mind light filtering through tree leaves, while the rhythmic pattern of consecutive rings gave visitors a peculiar uplifting feeling. All in all, the project was a tremendous success, and became a great experience for everybody involved.
