架构师提供的文本描述。博云寺位于台中市中心.建筑工地位于东南角倾斜的长方形地段。它可以在北部和南部访问。北面面对着由市政府、市议会大楼和城市公园购物中心组成的中轴线。南边合并成一个低矮的住宅区.该卷由两座塔组成，共用一个基础平台-12层高的北塔，其中包括画廊、教室、会议中心和顶层的观音寺。这座8层高的南塔为僧侣们提供了冥想大厅和生活空间。这座5层高的讲台是一座多功能的现代佛教寺庙，可容纳接待大厅、餐厅和大佛等大的最终空间。

Text description provided by the architects. Bow-Yun Temple is located in the center of Taichung City. The building site is on an elongated rectangular lot which is slanted on the southeast corner. It can be accessed both on the north and the south. The north façade is facing the central axis aligned by City Government, City Council Building, and the City Park Mall. The south side merged into a low-rise residential area. The volume consists of two towers sharing a base podium– The 12-storey-tall north tower contains gallery, classrooms, conference center, and Guan-Yin temple on top floor. The 8-storey-tall south tower holds the meditation hall and living spaces for the monks. The 5-storey-tall podium functions as a multi-functional modern Buddhist temple, which accommodates large eventual spaces such as Reception Lobby, Dinning Hall, and Grand Buddha Hall.

为了释放中间的大跨度最终空间，我们在东侧和西侧放置了两个重结构区，“三明治”了无柱区域。重型结构区设计为双柱空间，中间有短跨度的深梁，因此无柱区的天花板间隙要高得多。所有的辅助服务和流通也都安排在两边，以释放中间的“中心空隙”。

In order to release the long spanned eventual spaces in the middle, we put two heavy-structural zone on the east and west side to “sandwich” the column-free area. The heavy-structural zones are designed as a double column space with short-spanned deep beams in between, so the column-free area can have a much higher ceiling clearance. All the supporting services and circulations are also arranged on the sides, to free up the eventual “central void” in the middle.

北面的设计理念源于中国传统的佛寺形象，我们把大屋檐的语言转换成倾斜的玻璃幕布，玻璃面板连接的方式类似屋顶瓦。在大屋檐下，出现了一个阴暗的凹口，它是最终中央空隙的入口。楼梯和电梯在东侧，仪式循环坡道在西边。

The design concept of the north façade is derived from the traditional image of Chinese Buddhist Temple; we transform the language of the big eaves into an inclined glass curtain, so the way the glass panels connect resembles roof shingles. Underneath the big eave, a shadowy recessed opening appears, it is the entrance of the eventual central void. Stairs and elevators are on the east wing, ritual circulation ramp on the west.
