架构师提供的文本描述。重新定义本机

Text description provided by the architects. REDEFINING THE NATIVE

这家酒店住在古尔冈市，通常被称为“新印度的面孔”。作为一个落后的农村社区，古尔冈在十年前被忽视，现在已经迅速发展成为一个信息技术中心和许多跨国公司的所在地，部分原因在于它与新德里的毗邻和连通性。

The hotel resides in the city of Gurgaon, often dubbed the ‘Face of New India’. Overlooked as a backward, rural community just a decade ago, Gurgaon has rapidly developed into an IT hub and home to many multinational companies, partly due to its proximity and connectivity to the national capital of New Delhi.

然而，在整个城市环境中，这一快速发展既不一致，也不协调。事实上，对于在发达国家工作的建筑师来说，这种说法是耳熟能详的：快速的经济增长和随之而来的城市化创造了一个激进并置的世界，在这个世界里，闪闪发光的当代建筑与贫困、不存在的基础设施和恶劣的自然环境并存。

However, this rapid development has not been consistent nor coordinated throughout the urban environment. Indeed, this narrative is a familiar one for architects working in the developed world:the rapid economic growth and the accompanying urbanization has created a world of radical juxtapositions, where glistening contemporary architecture coexists with the poverty, non-existent infrastructure, and inhospitable physical environment.

 Ground Floor Plan

尽管中国的发展是由一个强大的公共部门推动的，但印度实际上缺乏连贯的政府规划和投资，这创造了一种“人人共享”的自由环境，在这种环境中，新纪元的口袋被缝进了现代印度典型的杂乱无章的城市结构中。

Whereas the development in China is driven by a strong public sector, the virtual absence of coherent government planning and investment in India has created a free for-all environment where pockets of the New is stitched into the messy and chaotic urban fabric that is typical of modern India.

因此，我们面临的挑战是找到一种方法，一种是与经典的印度空间体验产生共鸣，二是能够突破周围环境的噪音和混乱。构造语言必须能够抵抗视觉上的杂乱，笼罩在这一地区的厚厚的一层灰尘，以及不断提醒我们古尔冈实际上是一个巨大的建筑工地。

Our challenge, then, was to find an approach that, one, resonates with the classic Indian spatial experience and, two, can cut through the noise and chaos of the surrounding environment. The tectonic language must be able to stand up to the visual clutter, the thick layer of dust that envelopes this area, and the constant reminder that Gurgaon is essentially one giant construction site.

立面战略

FACADE STRATEGY

虽然空间组织的目的是使客人远离外部世界的混乱，但立面设计很大程度上是与凌乱的环境有关和谈判。这两块地块的主要质量都是用花岗岩覆盖的，这使得这座建筑成为从古尔冈的黄色泥土中冒出来的一块岩石。穿透石质的玻璃和金属层延伸到古尔冈的玻璃摩天大楼的新兴世界。

While the spatial organization is meant to insulate the guests from the chaos of the outside world, the façade design is very much about relating to and negotiating with the messy context. The main mass of the two blocks is clad in granite which renders the building as a piece of rock emerging from the yellow dirt of Gurgaon. The layers of glass and metal that penetrates through the stone mass reaches out to the emerging world of glass skyscrapers in Gurgaon.

正面的整体体验是一种干净、简约和精致的东西，但石头、玻璃和金属的拼贴，与装饰现代印度景观的黄色泥土、混凝土、砖块和绿色点点的拼贴，有着怎样的感觉。

The overall experience of the facade is that of something clean, minimal and refined, but the collage of the stone, glass and metal some how feels one with the assemblage of yellow dirt, concrete, brick and spots of green that adorn the modern Indian landscape.

空间分层

SPATIAL LAYERING

根据定义，酒店需要为疲惫的旅行者提供安全、舒适和放松的空间。维万塔通过一系列相互连接的庭院和层次分明的公共空间来实现这一点，这些空间借鉴了印度传统的宫殿建筑。一系列的园林庭院被主要的公共室内空间所包围。这些空间是分开的，但通过几层玻璃墙在视觉上连接起来。从正面开始的几层屏风的展开，逐渐揭开了内部空间的面纱。剥皮的建筑物揭示了游泳池，餐厅街区和其他公共空间后面。

A hotel, by very definition, needs to provide a space of safety, comfort, and relaxation for the weary traveller. The Vivanta achieves this through a series of interconnected courtyards and layered public spaces that draw on the traditional palace architecture of India. A series of landscaped courtyards are surrounded by the main public interior spaces. These spaces are separate, yet visually connected through layers of glass walls.The unpeeling of the layers of screens, starting from the façade, gradually unveils the internal spaces. Skinning the building reveals the swimming pool, restaurant blocks and other public spaces behind.

空间体验既是私人的，又是联系的，内部的，也是与外部景观相延续的。主大厅的宏伟程度增加了室外庭院的层层和与其他公共空间的透明连接，如主餐厅和宴会设施。

The spatial experience is simultaneously private but connected, interior but also continuous with the exterior landscape. The grandness of the main lobby is multiplied by the layers of outdoor courtyards and transparent connections to other public spaces like the main dining room and banquet facilities..
