架构师提供的文本描述。在拥有数百万人口的中国南方城市东莞，建筑师冯·格坎(von Gerkan，Marg and Partners，GMP)已经完成了一座篮球场的设计。从远处可以看到这座建筑，它是一个地标，为辽布新区的人们提供了身份和方向。

Text description provided by the architects. In the southern Chinese city of Dongguan – a city of several million – a basketball stadium has been completed to plans by architects von Gerkan, Marg and Partners (gmp). The building can be seen from afar and is a landmark that provides identity and orientation to the people in the new district of Liaobu.

该体育场可容纳近1.5万名游客，可用于体育和其他活动；它是中国最成功的篮球队之一-东莞Leopards的新的主要比赛场地。篮球越来越受到中国人的欢迎，尤其是自从姚明以民族英雄的身份进入美国篮球联盟-NBA之后。

The stadium has space for nearly 15,000 visitors and can be used for sports and other events; it is the new main competition venue for one of the most successful Chinese basketball teams, the Dongguan Leopards. Basketball is increasingly popular with the Chinese, particularly so since Yao Ming, who is celebrated as a national hero, made his entry into the US basketball league – the NBA.

体育场的设计以多种方式改变了篮球运动的元素：圆形环位于一个凸起的平台上，使人联想到篮球篮子的箍，它的正面就像网附在篮筐上一样。

The design of the stadium transforms the elements of the sport of basketball in various ways: situated on a raised platform, the circular ring is reminiscent of the hoop of a basketball basket to which the facade is attached like the net to the hoop.

球体的典型橙色出现在网面后面，表现为竞技场的外部结构，室内设计也有特色。体育场的钢屋面结构直径为157米。它由一个外部的垂直起伏的压力环组成。由此悬挂的28条丝带，其上的格子框架结构被放置在支撑上。

The typical orange colour of the ball appears behind the net-like facade in the form of the external structure of the arena, and also features in the interior design. The steel roof structure of the stadium has a diameter of 157 meters. It consists of an external, vertically undulating pressure ring. From this are suspended 28 ribbons, on which lattice frame structures are placed for bracing.

屋顶区域支撑在锯齿形支柱上。世界范围内一个独特的特点是屋顶和地板之间的电缆网络立面，它由带有绝缘玻璃的三角形面板组成。

The roof area is supported on zig-zag shaped struts. A unique feature worldwide is the cable network facade between roof and floor, which consists of triangular panels with insulating glazing.

体育场周围是一片广阔的公园，作为建筑物和周围相对嘈杂的道路之间的缓冲地带。景观的设计从体育场的形状中得到启示。宽阔的绿地和沿着水景弯曲的小径环绕着体育场，作为运动和休闲区。

The stadium is surrounded by extensive parkland which acts as a buffer zone between the building and the relatively noisy surrounding roads. The design of the landscape takes its cue from the shape of the stadium. Extensive green areas and curved pathways along water features surround the stadium and serve as sport and leisure areas.
