架构师提供的文本描述。纽卡斯尔博物馆由一系列振兴的“世纪之交”工业砖混铁路车间建筑组成-铁匠和车轮店(1880年)、机车锅炉店(1887年)和位于金银花城市滨水区再生区的新立起商店(1920年)。所面临的挑战是提供一种联系要素，不仅为遗产结构创造新的认同感，并为这三座建筑提供一个视觉上和物理上都能进入的入口，而且还对其进行升级，以容纳一个国家标准博物馆和相关的支助要求，同时又不削弱现有结构的完整性。

Text description provided by the architects. Newcastle Museum consists of a series of revitalised “turn of the Century” industrial brick railway workshop buildings - Blacksmith’s and Wheel Shop (1880), Locomotive Boiler Shop (1887), and New Erecting Shop (1920) located within the urban waterfront regeneration precinct of Honeysuckle. The challenge was to provide a linkage element to not only create a new sense of identity for the heritage structures and to provide an visually and physically accessible entrance to the three buildings, but to also upgrade them to accommodate a national standard museum and associated support requirements, without diminishing the integrity of the existing fabric.

新的建筑元素被设想成一系列浮云状的屋顶形式，在现有厂房的重型砖石之间徘徊。这些像白云一样的造型吸引了自然光线、阴影，保护了游客和展品，同时也为博物馆的流通创造了一种新的入口感和中心定位。

The new building elements are conceived as a series of floating cloud like roof forms that hover in-between the heavy masonry of the existing workshops. These white cloud-like forms draw in natural light, shade and protect visitors and exhibits, while also creating a new sense of entry and central orientation for the Museum circulation.

浮动屋顶下面是钢和玻璃的“链接”结构，可容纳门厅、临时展览和流通领域。链接结构通过金属管状的形式连接到相邻的车间建筑，从而产生扩展的阈值过渡到不同的展览卷。

Below the floating roof forms is the ‘Link’ structure in steel and glass that accommodates the foyer, temporary exhibition and circulation areas. The Link structure is joined to the adjacent Workshop buildings via metal tube-like forms that create extended threshold transitions into differing exhibition volumes.
