瓦阿建成了一座新的当代艺术博物馆，位于黄河畔的一座中国城市，受当地地形的启发，赋予了博物馆特色。

waa complete an new museum of contemporary art in a Chinese city next to Yellow River, inspired by the local topography to give the museum its identity.

银川市位于茂密的湿地与干旱的沙漠之间，被黄河隔开。在一个没有明显基础的地区发展当代艺术文化。它被选择接受这个网站的复杂性和丰富的生态历史。在我们的现场叙述中，地质活动的重要性使我们形成了一个特定地点的概念和身份。过去几千年来，通过卫星图像可以观察到经常发生的洪水，这意味着河流的位置在不断变化和变化。离开目前浩瀚的湿地，成为这段旅程中唯一的遗迹，激发了博物馆与遗址的对话。

MOCA Yinchuan is located at the border between lush wetlands and arid desert divided by the Yellow river. In an area with no apparent grounding for contemporary art culture to grow. It was chosen to embrace this site complexity and rich ecological history. Placing the importance of geological activity in our site narration enabled the formation of a site specific concept and identity.Frequent flooding over the last millennia can be observed through satellite imagery which alludes to the rivers ever changing, shifting location. Leaving the current vast wetlands, as the only remnants of this journey and inspiring the museums dialogue with the site.

制作的博物馆的聚集反应地质力量(上传/沉积物侵蚀)，可见于沉积褶皱丰富的外观。可视化的折痕和纹理需要在设计过程中的某些时刻使用参数化技术进行探索。

The crafted m­useum’s massing responds to geological forces (uploading/Sediment erosion) visible in the sedimentary creases abundant on the facade. Visualising the creases and texture require explorations using parametric techniques at certain moments during the design process. 

这些有助于植入理想的身份，一个记录时间痕迹的“化石”。

These help implant the desired identity, a “fossil “documenting the traces of Time.

一个记录时间痕迹的“化石”。

a “fossil “documenting the traces of Time.

如果正面褶皱是通过物质沉淀记录下来的时间的话。模仿这些自然地貌过程释放了一种与“地点”有着内在联系的语言，同时也暗示着这个“地方”是过去的一个时期。

If the facade creases speak of documented time through material sedimentation. Emulating these natural landform processes frees a language intrinsically linked with ‘Place’while hinting of this ‘place’ as a Time in the past. 

GRC是开发双曲面的重要组成部分。这座建筑由1600多块独特的面板组成，面积从40平方米到8平方米不等。在自动化时代，重新唤醒了工艺精湛的精神。

GRC was an integral to developing a double curved surface. This building is comprised of over 1600 unique panels ranging from 40sqm to 8sqm. Re- awakening of the spirit of craftsmanship redundant in the age of automation.

内部的程序安排决定了信封的外观；我们希望通过教育休闲项目，让当地游客有一种开放的参与感觉，缩短艺术欣赏的飞跃。因此，让社区参与进来，并挑战他们在开放和乐观的环境中观察。通过画廊空间的直线路线有助于引导游客的目光与攀爬的感觉。地下室的画廊代表着更深、更粗糙的材料，提升体验变得更白、更亮、更合成。

Internal programmatic arrangement dictated the envelopes appearance; we hoped to engage in an open feel of participation for local visitors shortening the leap to art appreciation through educational leisure programs. Thus engaging the community and challenging them to observe in an open and optimistic environment. The linear route through gallery spaces helps direct the visitors gaze with a perception of climbing. Basement galleries are represented in darker and rougher materials, ascending the experience become whiter, brighter and more synthetic. 

博物馆赋予人一种追求衰老、黑暗到光明/粗糙到平滑/起起落落的雄心壮志。这些简单的节奏和节拍希望能让来访者集中精力，以更大的觉知来体验时间的痕迹。

The museum imparts an ambition to age, dark to light / rough to smooth / rising and falling. These simple rhythms and tempos hope to focus the visitor to experience traces of Time with greater awareness.

Waa由英国注册建筑师Di Zhang(Bartlett/UCL)创建，合作伙伴包括创始成员Jack Young(2010)(Bartlett/UCL)和Ruben Bergambagt(2012)(Delft)。这一做法是根据在伦敦的国际设计公司福斯特和合作伙伴公司工作多年的经验建立的，这些合作伙伴在许多大型项目上积累了经验，其中最显著的是马斯达发展和马斯达研究所(阿联酋)、希思罗机场航站楼扩建和彭博欧洲总部(伦敦)。

waa is founded by British Registered Architects Di Zhang (Bartlett/UCL), Partners include founding member Jack Young (2010) (Bartlett/UCL) and Ruben Bergambagt (2012) (Delft). The practice was set up following many years of experiences of the three partners working at international design firm Foster and Partners in London, gaining experience on many large scale projects most notably Masdar Development and Masdar Institute (UAE), Heathrow Airport Terminal Expansion and the Bloomberg European HQ (London).
