架构师提供的文本描述。格兰斯沃克是马斯河上中世纪城市的一部分，将成为文洛未来的创作和文化中心。特别是，作为新建筑发展的载体，AWG的城市规划建议了典型的旧城建筑布局。

Text description provided by the architects. Grenswerk, part of the medieval city on the Maas river, is to become the future creative and cultural heart of Venlo.

按照分区规定，建筑围护结构的面积很大，这使这一地区的住宅成为人们关注的焦点。因此，为了使自己与众不同，我们选择了一种敏感而有力的方法来处理卷，这与仓库类型学相对应。

Following zoning regulations, the building envelope has a mass which lends to the residential focus in this area. In order to distinguishing itself therefore, we chose for a sensitive yet strong approach to the volume, which corresponds with a warehouse typology.

我们强烈地感受到，以这种方式的体积能够优雅地融入密集的城市环境。新的流行庙宇，按照城市规划，以市中心的历史屋顶规划，进一步具体化其强大的身份。屋面结构进一步被设计成建筑的主要特征之一，一种建筑形式的陈述。屋面结构从入口处显露出来，延续到正厅，增强了其独特的体验。FAÇADE以抽象和装饰的方式引用历史仓库。大窗口穿透̧ADE，使建筑物的程序易于从外部读取。

We feel strongly, the volume in this way was able to blend elegantly into the dense urban environment. The new pop temple is capped, in accordance the urban plan, with the historical roof plan of the town centre, further concreting its strong identity. The roof structure was further worked out to become one of the main characteristics of the building, an architectural statement. From the entrance the roof structure is exposed, continuing into the main hall, enhancing its unique experience. The façade refers back to the historic warehouse in an abstract and decorative way. Large windows puncture the façade to make the program of the building easily read from the outside.

该地块相对于地面相对有限。在大厅的最终设计和位置上，这是一个决定性的因素。通过拆除大厅并让它在现场占据中心位置，就可以把所有的公共功能都围绕在它周围：入口、流行咖啡馆́、彩排室和街道上的装货。大厅和公共设施之间的空间然后容纳紧急楼梯和厕所，提供额外的噪音缓冲。然后，每个公共功能之间的空间可以作为空隙开放，在视觉上连接门厅和大厅、艺术家、办公室工作人员和访客。该方案的目的是创造一种开放、透明的气氛，在地面一级创造一个吸引人的平台和与城市结构的联系。波普寺的整体外观是互动和欢乐，是可见活动的表现。练习室对此至关重要，有通往入口的窗户和流行咖啡厅́，让每个人都能看到音乐。

The plot is in relation to the floor surface relatively limited. This was a determining factor in the final design and position of the hall. By lifting the hall and giving it a central position on the site, it was possible to wrap all public functions around it; the entrance, the pop café, rehearsal rooms and loading at street level. The space between the hall and public functions then accommodate the emergency stairs and toilets, providing an extra noise buffer. Spaces between each public function can then be left open as voids, which visually connect the foyer and halls, artists, office workers and visitors. The programme is positioned to create an open, transparent atmosphere that on the ground level creates an inviting plinth and connection to the urban fabric. The overall appearance of the pop temple is that of interaction and conviviality, of the visible activities. The practice studios are vital to this, having windows to the entrance and pop café, allowing the music to be visible to everyone that visits.
