这座建筑重新介绍了地区法院的价值，这座具有公民意义的地标建筑将代表当地社区，并促进法院作为争端解决中心的作用。

The architecture re-introduces the value of the regional courthouse with a civic, landmark building that will represent the local community and promote the role of the courthouse as a centre for dispute resolution.

新的法院大楼是为取代1970年代末建造的现有单一法院设施而设计和建造的。

The new courthouse was designed and built to replace the existing single court facility, constructed in the late 1970s.

 Ground Floor Plan

现有的设施是一个多管辖法院，已经运作了大约30年。它提供便利，使法院能够在民事和刑事事项上向司法机构提供行政和支助。现有房地空间和业务受到严重限制，无法满足目前的需要，无法再满足该区域对法院服务日益增长的需求。

The existing facility was a multi-jurisdictional court that had been in operation for about 30 years. It provided facilities that enabled court administration and support to the judiciary in both civil and criminal matters. The existing premises were under severe space and operational constraints, did not meet current needs and could no longer accommodate the growing demand for court services in the region.

新设施是在现有场地上建造的，包括两个审判室和一个额外的调解/多功能室。

The new facility has been constructed on the existing site and includes two courtrooms and an additional mediation/multi-function room.

这座建筑在很大程度上利用了库努拉独特的地理特色，从空气中可以看到，尤其是在城市周围移动时的视觉效果。自然地貌的对比，包括有序的种植园和建筑，是特别独特的，与凯利的诺布和隐谷的近在咫尺。这两个自然地标都可以从网站上看到；它们在视觉上和经验上以尊重和成熟的方式将社区和游客连接到Kununurra。

The architecture draws heavily on Kununurra’s geographic uniqueness, visible from the air and particularly visual when moving around the town. The contrast of the natural landform, embracing the ordered plantations and buildings is especially unique, combined with the close proximity of Kelly’s Knob and Hidden Valley. Both natural landmarks are visible from the site; they visually and experientially connect the community and visitors to Kununurra in a manner that is respectful and sophisticated.

建筑的屋顶形式创造了一个即时的对话，同时创造了各种各样的体积，以响应方案要求的内部空间。屋面的高度亦须小心控制，以便与邻近的建筑物有关连。外部和内部材料的使用，反映了分层和破碎的景观性质，并引入了一种物质，这是绝对独特的库努拉。所有材料一般都是预先完成的，以尽可能降低生命周期成本.

The roof form of the building creates an immediate dialogue while creating a variety of volumes that respond to the program requirements for the interior spaces. The height of the roof is also carefully controlled to relate to the immediate adjacent buildings. External and internal materials used, reflect the layered and fractured nature of the landscape and introduce a materiality that is absolutely unique to Kununurra. All materials are generally pre-finished to reduce life-cycle costs wherever possible.

遮阳装置控制建筑物的热负荷，同时改变室内空间的体验。在西北面，屋顶形成褶皱，大板上有库努努拉湖的图像。这提供了防晒霜，限制了阳光直射，并为司法分庭和调解组创造了隐私。在东南面，一个巨大的外部遮阳物(遮阳罩)跟随着屋顶的形式来保护玻璃，同时改变了内部的规模，创造了亲密或公共的空间。

Sunshade devices control the heat load on the building while modifying the experience of the interior space. On the north-western facade the roof form folds down with large panels perforated with an image of Lake Kununurra. This provides a sunscreen that limits the direct sun and creates privacy to the judicial chambers and mediation suite. On the south-eastern façade a large external sunshade (brise-soleil) follows the form of the roof protecting the glass while changing the scale of the interior, creating spaces that are intimate or communal.

建筑边缘包括连续内置的各种形状的木材座椅，使游客能够找到一个首选的地方，坐在一大群或找到一个安静的地方单独。与座位和游客的对话，设计远山景观和当地景观。一个安全的外部等待空间延伸从主门厅和继续起伏内建的座位，由当地的石头建造，使游客能够享受一个阴影的室外空间与过滤的视野对天空。

Building edges include continuous built-in timber seats of various configurations, enabling visitors to find a place of preference, to sit in large groups or find a quiet place alone. The brise-soleil dialogues with the seating and visitors, framing views to distant hills and local landscaping. A secure external waiting space extends from the main foyer and continues the undulating built-in seating, constructed of local stone, enabling visitors to enjoy a shaded outdoor space with filtered views to the sky.

该方案要求建立一个设施，为所有法院用户，特别是当地土著人民提供欢迎和安抚。铺石的公共门厅内衬着天然木材和当地艺术品的水平带状，创造了一个吸引人的、与当地社区相联系的内部环境。

The program called for a facility that was both welcoming and calming for all court users, particularly local Indigenous people. Stone-paved public foyers are lined with horizontal bands of natural timbers and local artwork, creating an engaging and contextual interior, immediately identifiable with the local community.

审判室也采用天然木材衬里，但创造了一种正式的场合感和更统一的颜色选择。审判室总是与自然光线相连，有控制的视野进入私人庭院，远眺天空和树木。这些空间是平静和集中与大量和温暖的材料。

Courtrooms also employ natural timber linings but create a formal sense of occasion with a more uniform colour selection. Courtrooms are always connected to natural light, provided with controlled outlooks into private courtyards, and distant views of the sky and or trees. These spaces are calm and focused with high volumes and warm materials.

门厅和审判室都参照了通过使用精心制作的材料和空间品质在隐藏谷体验到的空间质量。

Both foyers and courtrooms reference the quality of space experienced in Hidden Valley through the use of carefully crafted material and spatial qualities.
