丝带是美国加州旧金山联合国广场50号总务管理局艺术和建筑项目的景观雕塑。庭院设计改变了1932年阿瑟布朗建筑的古典对称性，在建筑面积2万平方英尺的建筑中插入了一个由铺路、座椅、喷泉和种植组成的雕塑矩阵。英国“金融时报”。院子。

Ribbons is a landscape sculpture for the Art and Architecture Program of the General Services Administration, at 50 United Nations Plaza, San Francisco, CA. The courtyard design transforms the classical symmetry of the 1932 Arthur Brown building, by inserting a sculptural matrix of paving, seating, fountains and planting into the building’s 20,000 sq. ft. courtyard.

加滕重新设想两个古典喷泉在阿瑟布朗的最初的1932年计划(从来没有建造)作为当代花岗岩形式。这些形式是一个更大的水平词汇的一部分，一个拉长的古典主题的混凝土铺路丝带设置在一个更大的透水表面的分解花岗岩。优雅的浇铸混凝土长凳从，扭曲和回落到这些铺路丝带，给整个庭院有节奏地断断续续的循环系统。

Garten re-envisioned the two classical fountains in Arthur Brown’s original 1932 plan (which were never built) as contemporary granite forms. These forms are part of a larger horizontal vocabulary of an elongated classical motif of concrete paving ribbons set into a larger pervious surface of decomposed granite. Elegant cast concrete benches rise from, twist and fall back into these paving ribbons giving a rhythmically punctuated circulation system throughout the courtyard.

这些由再生和浇铸混凝土制成的雕塑给人的印象是，水平表面已经被提升，形成了三维交织的形式，并在庭院循环系统中创造了休息点。庭院的绿色特征是基于简单的可持续技术，在32棵白桦树的树丛下种植低水、耐荫的植物，在活跃的地面平面和建筑的白色砖墙之间创造出垂直的尺度。丝带在保护历史建筑和GSA对联邦建筑的适应性再利用和其在GSA设计卓越计划下积极的可持续性倡议之间划出了一条敏感的线。

These sculptures made of recycled and cast concrete give the impression that the horizontal surface has been lifted to create a three dimensional interwoven form and create points of rest in the courtyards circulation system. The green character of the courtyard is based on simple sustainable technologies, with low water, shade tolerant planting beneath a grove of 32 white birch trees that create vertical dimension between the active ground plane and the buildings white brick walls. Ribbons cuts a sensitive line between the preservation of the historical architecture and the adaptive reuse of the Federal Building by the GSA and its aggressive Sustainability initiative for the project under GSA’s Design Excellence Program.
