架构师提供的文本描述。Leeuwarden的Wilhelminaplein，也被称为Het Zaailand，经历了彻底的变革。这个巨大的广场由于在东侧增加了新的弗里斯博物馆，在北侧增加了住房和商店的街道前而被大大减少了。现有的扎伊兰购物中心已得到整容。这种商业和文化功能的结合创造了一种活跃的城市氛围。

Text description provided by the architects. The Wilhelminaplein in Leeuwarden, also known as het Zaailand, has undergone a radical transformation. The enormous square has been reduced considerably by the addition of the new Fries Museum on the east side and a street front of housing and shops on the north side. The existing Zaailand shopping centre has been given a facelift. This combination of commercial and cultural functions creates a lively, urban atmosphere.

由于建筑师亚伯·邦内马的遗产，新的弗里斯博物馆应运而生。2001年去世时，他留下了1800万欧元用于建造一个新的弗里斯博物馆，条件是它将建在弗里斯兰省首府莱尤沃顿中心的一个广场赫特·扎伊兰(Het Zaailand)上。该建筑由休伯特-简·亨基特设计，结构精化由波内马建筑按照意愿进行。

The new Fries Museum came into being thanks to a legacy from the architect Abe Bonnema. On his death in 2001 he bequeathed 18 million Euros for the construction of a new Fries Museum on condition that it was to be built on het Zaailand, a square in the centre of the provincial capital of Friesland, Leeuwarden. The building was designed by Hubert-Jan Henket and the structural elaboration was carried out by Bonnema architecten in accordance with the will.

很长一段时间里，扎伊兰是一个很大的空间。当莱恩典狱长还是一座有围墙、设防的城市时，它还是一个菜园。后来，这里成了阅兵场，最后成为市场、节日和停车场的大广场。广场的大面积和周围的发展缺乏密度，使许多人认为它是一个令人不愉快的地方，缺乏规模。扎伊兰遗址博物馆的发展使广场的规模得以缩小，并增加了在那里举行的活动。Soeters Van Eldonk Archten设计了一条街道正面，北侧有商店和住房，Bierman Henket建筑公司负责在东侧建造新的Fries博物馆。

For a long time het Zaailand was one large, empty space. When Leeuwarden was still a walled-in, fortified city, it was a vegetable garden. It later became a military parade ground before finally becoming a large square for markets, festivals and parking. The square’s large size and the lack of density in the surrounding development led many people to consider it an unpleasant place, lacking in scale. The development of the museum on the Zaailand site made it possible to reduce the scale of the square and increase the activities held there. Soeters Van Eldonk architecten designed a street frontage with shops and housing on the northern side and Bierman Henket architecten was responsible for the realisation of the new Fries Museum on the eastern side.

弗里斯博物馆的重点是弗里斯兰的历史，它的艺术和文化。北方弗里斯兰省的历史是由它与水的关系决定的。开放的景观、明亮的日光、弗里里西亚语和弗里西亚人的非胡说八道的独特特征在新博物馆中得到了体现。为博物馆选择扎伊兰遗址需要一个新的博物馆概念，在这个概念中，弗里西亚的身份可以被置于当代全球化社会的中心。

The Fries Museum focuses on Friesland’s history, its art and its culture. The history of the northern province of Friesland has for centuries been determined by its relationship with water. The specific characteristics of the open landscape, the bright daylight, the Friesian language and the no-nonsense mentality of the Friesian people find expression in the new museum. Choosing the Zaailand site for the museum called for a new museological concept in which this Friesian identity could be placed at the very centre of the contemporary, globalised society.

新的弗里斯博物馆位于扎伊兰购物中心之间，建于八十年代，广场上有每周市场、集市和节日等活动。一条公共步行路线直通大楼，将这两种功能连接起来。广场上现有地下停车场的正门也设在大楼内。为了给日常生活注入更多的活力，城市节目中还增加了一些商店，包括博物馆商店、一家有三个礼堂的艺术电影院、一家地区公共广播公司Omroep Friesland的工作室，以及一座布拉斯塞里。

The new Fries Museum is situated between the Zaailand shopping centre, built in the eighties, and the square with its activities such as the weekly market, fairs and festivals. A public pedestrian route runs straight through the building connecting both functions. The main entrance to the existing underground car park on the square is also housed in the building. In order to inject more life into the everyday, urban programme a number of shops, including the museum shop, an art film cinema with three auditoriums, a studio for Omroep Friesland – the regional public broadcasting company, and a brasserie were also added to the building.

底层和阁楼连接各种公共线路和功能。中央大厅是建筑物的高度，可以俯瞰广场，可以看到博物馆在上面的景色。一个邀请楼梯和画廊的系统旨在吸引路过的人参观博物馆。

The ground floor and a mezzanine connect the various public routes and functions. A central hall that is the height of the building overlooks the square, providing a view of the museum situated above. A system of inviting stairways and galleries are designed to tempt passers-by to visit the museum.

该建筑的公共平台是完全透明的，使它成为公共领域的一个空间组成部分。上面的体积很大程度上是封闭的，并且有石头覆盖层。它有大约30个博物馆大厅(3200平方米)，为地区艺术，历史和文化，分布在三层楼。大厅有经典的尺寸，在每一层都相互连接，形成一条贯穿整个博物馆的连续路线，这是一个为交替展示而设计的中央展览。

The building’s public plinth is entirely transparent, making it a spatial component of the public domain. The volume above is largely closed and has stone cladding.  It houses some thirty museum halls (3,200 m2) for regional art, history and culture, spread over three floors. The halls have classical dimensions and are interconnected on each floor to form a continuous route through the museum round a central exhibition designed for alternating displays.

博物馆上方有一个巨大而突出的屋顶，上面有细长的柱子。屋顶将博物馆与邻近的建筑物连接起来，对城市表示欢迎。细长的柱子指的是19世纪新古典的正方形对面的新古典主义王宫。广场上有一块巨大的玻璃门面，穿过了博物馆大厅的密闭空间，中央大厅被白昼淹没。一段巨大的楼梯通向各层楼。在这里，游客可以看到翻修后的广场，博物馆就像一个城市展示柜一样，向城市展示艺术。

A large, projecting roof above the museum is carried on slender columns. The roof links the museum with the adjacent buildings with a welcoming gesture towards the city. The slender columns refer to the 19th century neo-classical Palace of Justice on the opposite side of the square. On the square itself an enormous glass front breaks though the closed volume housing the museum halls, flooding the central hall with daylight. A monumental flight of stairs leads up to the various floors. Here visitors have a view of the refurbished square and the museum, like an urban display case, displays the art to the city.
