架构师提供的文本描述。该项目的建筑雄心是创造一座建筑，尊重附近列出的建筑和周边保护区，同时也为布里斯托尔增添了一份充满自信的当代设计。

Text description provided by the architects. The architectural ambition of the project is to create a building that respects the neighbouring listed buildings and surrounding conservation area whilst also adding a confident piece of contemporary design to Bristol.

为达到这一目的，该建筑物分为两个平行的两翼，其东面单元容纳办公场所，并响应相邻列出的建筑物的比例和聚集情况。西面机翼在外形上明显不同，它被设计成一个起伏的铝质墙，标志着位于大楼那部分的尖端实验室空间。建筑的两个要素是由一个完整的高度中庭空间连接起来的，这构成了建筑的社会核心。

To achieve this, the building is arranged in two parallel wings, with the east-facing element housing the office accommodation and responding to the proportion and massing of the adjacent listed buildings. Distinctly different in form, the west-facing wing is designed as an undulating aluminium wall, signifying the cutting-edge laboratory space housed in that part of the building. The two elements of the building are linked by a full height atrium space, which forms the social heart of the building.

 Ground Floor Plan

东侧的生命科学大楼的房屋非实验室空间，如办公室和研讨会室。这些区域所需的楼层间空间比实验室区域要小，因此圣迈克尔山对面的东部高地可以降低高度，以适应邻近保护区的规模。该建筑的东面被划分为垂直海湾，完成之间的浴缸石和渲染，以反映该地区的国内建筑。这个街区的聚集是为了隐藏建筑物的轮廓，当从下面的城市看到时。

The east wing of the Life Sciences Building houses non-laboratory spaces, such as offices and seminar rooms. These areas require less floor-to-floor space than the laboratory areas so the eastern elevation facing St Michael’s Hill can be reduced in height, responding to the scale of the neighbouring conservation area. The east façade of the building is divided into vertical bays, with the finish alternating between Bath stone and render to reflect the domestic architecture of the area. The massing of this block is stepped in order to conceal the profile of the building when viewed from the city below.

西面机翼包裹在一堵天然阳极铝墙中，与更传统的面向东方的外墙形成对立面。外墙的形状取决于室内实验室的设计，覆盖着从屋顶水平的植物外壳掉落到西面的管道，为每个实验室提供空气。

The west-facing wing is wrapped in a wall of natural anodised aluminium which acts as a counterpoint to the more traditional east-facing façade.  The shape of the façade is determined by the design of the laboratories inside, covering the ducts that drop from roof-level plant enclosures down the West façade to supply air to each laboratory.

该项目的关键驱动因素之一是增加研究人员、工作人员、学生和访客之间的互动机会。慷慨的中庭空间解决了这一问题，创建了一个具有会议和流通空间的建筑的社会中心。中庭还包括展示橱柜，展示布里斯托尔大学广泛收集的标本和工艺品。

One of the key drivers for the project is to increase the opportunities for interaction between researchers, staff, students and visitors. The generous atrium spaces addressed this by creating a social hub for the building with meeting and circulation spaces. The atrium also contains display cabinets to showcase Bristol University’s extensive collection of specimens and artefacts.
