架构师提供的文本描述。除了有关能源和生产技术的专题外，使用现有建筑结构也是可持续建筑中最重要的主题之一。对现有的和理论上的“现代化”的新解释，是我们对涉及历史背景和最近建筑结构的建筑项目的思考的重点。在巴德·拉德克斯堡历史悠久且受到很大保护的旧城中心实施一个活动中心，就是这些考虑的典范。

Text description provided by the architects. In addition to topics regarding energy and production technology, the use of existing building structures is one of the most essential topics in sustainable architecture. New interpretation of the existing and a thematical ‘modernisation’ are at the focus of our reflections in building projects that involve both a historical background and more recent building structures. The implementation of an event centre in the historical and largely protected old city centre of Bad Radkersburg serves as the built example of these considerations.

坏拉德克斯堡的商业潜力很大程度上归功于20世纪70年代发现的温泉，导致该镇郊区出现了大量的温泉和酒店，尽管未能将商业带入这个历史悠久的中心。当时的想法是，通过旧城新文化中心的推动，克服一切困难，抵制城镇郊区水疗区的明显位置，决定将该中心安置在主广场的三座列有清单的建筑物中。

Bad Radkersburg largely owes its business potential to a thermal spring, which was discovered in the 1970s and led to an abundance of spas and hotels in the town’s suburbs, albeit failing to bring business into the historic centre. The idea was to change this through the impetus of the new cultural centre in the old town and against all odds and resisting the obvious position at the spa area in the town’s suburbs, the decision was made to place this centre in three listed buildings on the main square.

这一决定带来了空间方案的挑战：不仅有一个大型的多功能厅，而是几个大小不同、气氛不同的房间，提供了不同的使用可能性，并在现有的结构中进行了改造和安置。根据需要，这些房间现在可以单独使用，也可以合并使用，甚至可以作为整个文化中心使用。

With this decision came the challenge of the spatial programme: not one single large, multifunctional hall but rather several rooms of different sizes, different atmospheres, offering different possibilities of use, were adapted and placed in the existing structures. Depending on requirements, these rooms can now be used individually or combined or even as the entire cultural centre.

里面的庭院，有一个玻璃屋顶，带有纺织品的檐篷，被改造成一个门厅。从这里开始，所有的房间和大厅都可以进入。

一种高度绝缘的“黑匣子”，可从底层进入，可容纳约250人，主要用于电子音乐、电影或戏剧活动。上面的音乐厅，为400人，其木材覆层在不同色调的白色，是特别适合室内乐和选择性的开放提供特殊的意见。它的高度发展一方面考虑到声学和照明方面的考虑，另一方面又指邻近建筑物的小型屋顶结构。这一中心设计措施是通过决定用Corten钢包覆多层区分的建筑主体来完成的。通过老化的过程，它将发展出类似于附近瓦片屋顶的外观；因此，这种材料提供了通信，而不回避提供当代建筑的义务。

A highly insulated ‘blackbox’, accessible via the ground floor with space for approximately 250 people, is used mainly for electronic music, film or theatre events. The concert hall above, for 400 people, with its timber cladding painted in different shades of white, is particularly apt for chamber music and selective openings offer particular views. Its height development follows acoustic and lighting considerations on the one hand whilst, on the other hand, it refers to the small-scale roof structure of neighbouring buildings. This central design measure is completed by the decision to clad the multifariously differentiated building body with Corten steel. Through the process of aging it will develop an appearance similar to the tiled roofs nearby; thus this material offers correspondence without shying from the obligation to deliver contemporary architecture.

建筑内部光线柔和，表面有天鹅绒般的一面。除了设计成白色和黑色对比的大型会议厅外，许多小型活动厅的气氛也明显不同。公共通道和聚集区反映了旧市中心的灰色和赤褐色。博哈奇视觉传播公司开发的栏杆图案，是指河堤对该镇历史的重要性。

Inside the building the light is soft, lending a velvety aspect to surfaces. In addition to the large halls which were designed in contrasting white and black, a large number of smaller event rooms clearly differ in their atmospheres. Public access and gathering zones reflect grey and terracotta shades from the old town centre. The banister motifs developed by Bohatsch Visual Communication refer to the importance of the river Mur for the town’s history.

有意识地决定不在中心内安装餐饮服务。东边的主广场和弗劳恩普拉兹广场都被设想为一个延伸的门厅，并提供相应的基础设施，这将再次有助于促进老城市巴德·拉德克斯堡的商业发展。

There was a conscious decision not to install catering services in the centre itself. Both the main square and Frauenplatz square to the east are conceived as an extended foyer and offer the corresponding infrastructure, this again will help to promote businesses in the old city of Bad Radkersburg.
