波莫纳学院的核心任务是为毕业生创造一个平衡、全面的教育。这座35，000平方英尺的工作室艺术厅认为，在这个框架内接触艺术是至关重要的，它把艺术创作、艺术欣赏和艺术互动放在一个屋檐下，将学校作为一所领先的文科学院的许多重要形象结合在一起。

At the heart of Pomona College’s mission is to create a balanced, well-rounded education for its graduates. Believing that an exposure to the studio arts is critical within this framework, the 35,000 square foot Studio Art Hall brings art making, art appreciation, and art interaction together under one roof, synergizing many important faces of the school’s esteemed identity as a leading liberal arts college.

为什么他的团队很早就与艺术系、教师和学生们合作，重新设想这个项目和网站，以支持艺术在校园中心的定位。编程会议揭示了一种在艺术创作过程中混合和暴露不同学科的愿望。其思想是，在形成性思维探索新思想、新材料和新媒介的同时，应鼓励不同思想和影响之间的碰撞。

wHY’s team worked with the Art Department faculty and students early on to reimagine the program and site in support of positioning art in the center of campus. Programming sessions uncovered a desire for mixing and exposing different disciplines during the art-making process. The idea being that as formative minds explore new ideas, materials and media, collisions between different thoughts and influences should be encouraged.

这种像村庄一样的开放、多孔的建筑鼓励艺术专业和非艺术专业之间的合作，项目元素被安排在一个中央庭院周围，这个庭院本身就是贯穿校园的突出对角线路径的一部分。通过半公共的，协作的“灰色空间”来完成，当学生，教师和工作人员通过工作室和公共区域移动时，这座建筑使学生、教师和工作人员之间的交集最大化。

The village-like open, porous nature of the architecture encourages collaboration among art majors as well as non-art majors with program elements arranged around a central courtyard that itself is part of a prominent diagonal path through campus. Accomplished through semi-public, collaborative ‘Grey Spaces,’ the building maximizes the intersection between students, faculty and staff as they move through the studios and public areas.

一个战略性的，无等级的聚集的演播室空间(媒体)推动了一种开放和不受限制的艺术方法。玻璃的广泛使用为学生提供了透明的整体-洞察他们的同龄人和教师在多个学科的创造性过程。

A strategic, non-hierarchical gathering stacking of studio spaces (mediums) fuels an openness and unrestricted approach to art. The expansive use of glass provides students with transparency to the whole — insights into the creative processes of their peers and faculty members in multiple disciplines.

这里覆盖着一个拱形的钢和木屋顶，它呼应着附近山脉的起伏，与历史悠久的弓弦桁架仓库相提并论。如今，洛杉矶各地的艺术画廊和工作室都住在这些仓库里。为了庆祝它在校园和南加州的鼓舞人心的位置，许多工作室的从地板到天花板的窗户构成了广阔的圣加布里埃尔山脉，起伏的乡土景观和一片历史悠久的橡树林。还鼓励将工作环境扩大到露天或自然环境的能力。

Covering and bringing it all together is an arching steel and wood roof that echoes the rise and fall of the nearby mountain range and draws parallels to the historic bowstring trussed warehouses that now house art galleries and studios throughout Los Angeles. In a nod to its inspiring placement on campus and within Southern California, floor-to-ceiling windows in many studios frame the expansive San Gabriel Mountains, rolling native landscape and an historic oak grove. The capacity to expand the working environment into the open air or natural surroundings is also encouraged.

为了最大限度地提高效率，该网站，建筑和室内设计整合可持续的组成部分，不间断的艺术制作。这是一个绿色，凉爽，透明的艺术氛围和思想的交叉授粉在波莫纳学院。

To maximize efficiency, the site, building and interior design integrate sustainable components for uninterrupted art making. It is a green, cool and transparent atmosphere for the arts and the cross-pollination of ideas at Pomona College.
