架构师提供的文本描述。IT

Text description provided by the architects. The IT&C business incubator will be part of a territorial network of similar equipments and will serve as an urban landmark within a wider project that aims to change the use of  an old industrial site.

INCUBOXX是一座议会大楼，面向想要在IT领域创业的年轻毕业生。

INCUBOXX is a council building meant for young graduates who want to start a business within the IT&C sector. For this reason, the building is equipped to serve firms in two business stages: the incubation stage (3 years) and the consolidation-development stage (2 years). Exhibition spaces, conference rooms, a cafeteria, a gym, a climbing wall and a terrace are all at any young business man’s disposal at INCUBOXX. As a result, the colour and material selection for the design is inspired by two main concepts: youth and sustainability.

该建筑位于一个有问题的地方，介于火车轨道的斜坡和繁忙的林荫大道之间，穿过废弃的工业区，其目的是在视觉和功能上改善它所处的土地，同时将其活动控制在中等体积(21070立方米)内。

Located on a problematic site, between the slope of a train track and a busy boulevard crossing a derelict industrial area, the building’s purpose is to improve the land it sits on both visually and functionally while containing its activity within a medium-sized volume (21070 cubic meters).

该设计遵循景观美化原则：人工折叠的土地整合了铁路轨道的坡度，并上升到底层。主办公楼的西面面对林荫大道，为城市活动提供了丰富多彩的背景。蓝色半透明的皮肤，白天会改变颜色，晚上会发光，是由聚碳酸酯制成的。提醒电路板，它被安装在水平结构网格上，通过窗口的水平性来表达自己。从里面看，这些窗框可以看到城市的全景。

The design follows landscaping principles: the artificially folded land integrates the slope of the train track and rises the ground floor. The main office building’s west facade faces the boulevard, offering a colourful background for urban activity. The blue translucent skin, which changes its colour during the day and glows during the night is made from polycarbonate. Reminding of a circuit board, it is mounted on the horizontal structural grid which expresses itself through the horizontality of the windows. From the inside, these windows frame views of the city at eye level.

要进入INCUBOXX，必须逐步向低透明体积倾斜，其中包含自助餐厅和健身房等辅助功能。从这个层次上看，停车位和服务室通过下面土地的裂缝和褶皱清晰可见。

To enter INCUBOXX one must go up a gradual slope towards a lower transparent volume which contains auxiliary functions such as the cafeteria and the gym. From this level the parking spaces and service rooms become visible through the cracks and folds of the land below.

整个建筑都在继续上升。从非正式的入口，一个是迎接多层中庭，带来新鲜的空气和光明的内部。你真的可以爬上爬墙上的明渠，到达楼顶，那里是露台，也是城市景观展现的地方。

The ascent continues throughout the building. From the informal entrance one is greeted by the multi-storey atrium which brings fresh air and light inside. One can literally climb up the light shaft on the climbing wall and arrive on the top of the building where the terrace is and where the cityscape unfolds.

环境战略

Environmental strategy

建筑的主要特征之一是它是通过被动冷却和自然照明自我维持的。内中庭是为建筑核心提供光线和通风的元素。对于可出租的办公空间，窗户提供最佳的空气交换和自然照明，而半透明聚碳酸酯正面过滤器和优化的光线水平。在地面层面，景观内部的垂直系统化使得停车场可以隐藏在视野之外，被陆地覆盖，并自然通风。此外，折叠景观和密集种植创造了一种控制空气流动的小气候，以便在夏季保持建筑物周围的稳定温度，同时也保护室内空间不受交通噪音的影响。

One of the main features of the building is the fact that it is self sustained through passive cooling and natural lighting. The interior atrium is the element that supplies light and ventilation to the core of the building. For the rentable office space, the windows provide both the optimum air exchange and natural lighting, while the translucent polycarbonate facade filters and optimizes the light levels. At ground level, the vertical systematisation within the landscape allows for the car park to be hidden from view, covered by the land and also naturally ventilated. Additionally, the folded landscape and intensive planting creates a microclimate in which the air movement is controlled in order to keep a stable temperature around the building during the summer while also protecting the interior space from traffic noise.

经济战略

Economical strategy

INCUBOXX是一座具有成本效益的建筑，因为它有两个主要方面：建造成本更低，运行成本也比Timisoara的其他办公楼低。通过用一种更高效、更经济的材料取代典型的玻璃幕墙，满足了建筑预算的要求：多层重绝缘聚碳酸酯。此外，由于新毕业租户的运营成本需要尽可能低，所以设计以可再生能源原则为中心。中庭是设计的被动冷却策略的一个很好的例子。利用叠加效应，它自然通风建筑物的中心区域，同时也引入自然光，消除了夏季的机械通风和白天的人工照明的需要。另一个很好的例子是办公空间，那里的窗户不需要人工通风，而半透明的聚碳酸酯提供过滤的自然光。

INCUBOXX is a cost-effective building due to two main aspects: it was cheaper to build and it has lower running costs than other office buildings in Timisoara. The construction budget was met through substituting the typical glass facade with a more efficient and cost-effective material: the multilayered heavily insulated polycarbonate. Moreover, because the running costs needed to be as low as possible for the newly graduate tenants, the design revolves around renewable energy principles. The atrium is a good example for the design’s passive cooling strategy. Using the stack effect, it naturally ventilates the central area of the building while also bringing natural light in, eliminating the need for mechanical ventilation during the summer and artificial lighting during the day. Another good example is the office space, where the windows exclude the need for artificial ventilation, while the translucent polycarbonate provides filtered natural light.

总之，空间内的光线、中庭、餐厅占据了进入顺序、健身房、所用材料和设备水平，为新的IT公司确定了一个独特的工作空间，并为开发Timisoara年轻毕业生的创造力和技能提供了所需的环境支持。

To summarise, the light within the space, the atrium, the cafeteria dominating the entry sequence, the gym, the materials used and the level of the equipment define a unique work space for the new IT firms and supply the environmental support needed to develop the creativity and skills of young graduates from Timisoara.
