架构师提供的文本描述。杂技艺术中心大楼的第一项使命是把它作为文化的容器放在城市里，其中公民是其中的重要组成部分。正是在这个关系中，建筑物建成了。

这项建议的基础是两个建筑要素的交流，它们支持发展和解决所提出的问题和意图的活动：第一个要素是寻求将城市外部与现有地形联系起来的平台。这个平台允许市民与里面的建筑物会合。

The proposal is based on the communion of two architectural elements which support activities to develop and allow the solution to problems and intentions raised: A first element is the platform that seeks to tie the city, outside, with the existing topography. This platform allows citizens to conect with the building inside.

然后，在生成的支持上确定特定程序的容器。容器响应用于服务的空间旁边的风景空间的需要。容量表示是由于悬挂的身体摆的姿态所致。这个9米无线电的虚拟周长是艺术家制作展览的最初要求。

Then, on the generated support settles the container of the specific programme. The container responds to the need for sheltering the scenic space next to the spaces destined for services. Volumetric expression is due to the gesture of pendular swing of a suspended body. This virtual circumference of 9 meter radio is the initial requirement of the artist to produces the show.

容器的外壳受到特殊的照顾，它们在密度和重要性上受到调节，力求忠实地反映庇护的活动和所安排的方向。产生适合西方的外墙通风，从北方和南方寻求光线和通风，是对建筑的常识的认可，该建筑位于能源效率的参数范围内。

The skins of that container receives special care, these are modulated in density and materiality, seeking to be faithful reflection of the activities that shelter and the orientation towards which are arranged. Generate facades ventilated with insulation suitable to the West, seek the light and ventilation from the North and South, are recognitions of the common sense of an architecture that is located within the parameters of energy efficiency.

向东，集装箱变得不物化了，这就产生了他更引人注目的操作，在那里，“缺席”需要主角来给建筑的最大表达方式提供内容：空气广场。

Towards the east the container desmaterialized and it generates his more striking operation, where the 'absence' takes protagonism to give content to the maximum expression of the building: the air square.

在这个空间里，集装箱和平台是连接在一起的，建筑和景观之间的关系是相辅相成的。

This space, in which the container and the platform are articulated, is where the relations between building and landscape complement each other.
