架构师提供的文本描述。麦格理大学(MacquarieUniversity)已经将他们以前的图书馆改造成了一系列的社会学习环境，能够适应学生工作的多种方式。Bennett和Trimble是麦格理大学(Macquarie University)聘请的三名建筑师之一，他们在前图书馆大楼的三个不同空间内为这个项目提供了一系列解决方案。该项目的设计期限为三年，此后将对该建筑进行重新开发。

Text description provided by the architects. Macquarie University has redeveloped their former library building as a series of social learning environments that can accommodate multiple ways of student working. Bennett and Trimble were one of three architects engaged by Macquarie University to produce a range of solutions to this project brief within three different spaces of the former library building. The project is designed for a three year lifespan following which the building will be redeveloped.

当代学习环境与传统图书馆有许多不同之处。一种单一的书桌类型已被广泛的家具所取代，以支持各种不同的个人和团体学习做法。这些包括长凳，汽车，会议桌，吊舱，房间，固定空间和非正式的放松区域。

Contemporary learning environments differ from traditional libraries in many ways. A single desk type has been replaced with a wide range of furniture to support a diverse range of individual and group learning practices. These include benches, carrels, meeting tables, pods, rooms, pin-up spaces and informal relaxation areas.

我们的项目将这些不同的元素结合在一起，形成一个大的连续工作表面，以适应各种不同的学习模式。我们希望课桌不仅支持这些个人和团体活动，还将鼓励更广泛的学生互动，并带来更丰富的校园体验和环境。

Our project joined these various elements together to form a large continuous work surface to accommodate the diverse range of learning modes. We hope that the desk will not only support these individual and group activities but will also encourage broader student interaction and lead to a richer campus experience and environment.

然后，桌子被弯曲和折叠，在前一个图书馆内形成一个连续的循环。这个回路嵌入了电力和数据电缆，让学生直接使用电力和互联网。该办公桌还配备了不同形式的视听设备，以补充每个具体的工作环境。

The desk is then bent and folded to form a continuous loop within the former library. This loop has been embedded with electrical and data cabling to allow students direct access to power and the internet. The desk has also be fitted with different forms of audio visual equipment to complement each specific working environment.

我们的战略依靠插入家具和可移动的元素，如窗帘和隔断，而不是固定的墙壁，玻璃和偏移天花板。这种方法提供了一种具有预算意识的解决方案，在重新开发以前的库时，可以很容易地在其他校园空间中删除和重新配置该解决方案。

Our strategy relies on the insertion of furniture and removable elements such as curtains and partitions rather than fixed walls, glazing and offset ceilings. This approach offers a budget conscious solution that can be easily removed and reconfigured in other campus spaces when the former library is redeveloped.
