架构师提供的文本描述。卡尔加里最高塔-拱门正式开幕

Text description provided by the architects. Official opening of The Bow, Calgary’s tallest tower

本周在卡尔加里举行了特别活动，以纪念多伦多城外237米高的总部大楼-这座城市最高的建筑和加拿大最高的塔-的正式开幕。作为天际线上一个大胆的新地标，该项目在城市、社会和环境方面同样具有重要意义：该大厦的公共基础上挤满了商店、餐馆和咖啡馆，并延伸到一个富丽堂皇的景观广场，而办公楼层则有三座六层高的空中花园，这些花园鼓励自然通风，有助于大幅减少能源消耗。

Special events have been held in Calgary this week to mark the official opening of The Bow, a 237- metre-high headquarters tower – the city’s tallest building and Canada’s tallest tower outside Toronto. A bold new landmark on the skyline, the project is equally significant in urban, social and environmental terms: the public base of the tower is filled with shops, restaurants and cafes and extends into a generous landscaped plaza, while the office floors are punctuated by three six-storey sky gardens, which encourage natural ventilation and help to significantly reduce energy use.

弓是中心街东侧的第一个主要开发项目，它是贯穿卡尔加里市中心的一个主要轴线，它为恩卡纳和塞诺夫斯提供了一个共同的总部。这座建筑的形态是通过对气候和组织的分析而形成的。塔朝南，向太阳弯曲，以利用日光和热量，同时最大限度地扩大蜂窝办公室的周长，俯瞰落基山脉。通过将凸面变成主流风，结构的负荷被最小化，从而减少了内在有效的对角系统所需的钢量。结构的每一个三角形部分跨越六层，有助于从视觉上分解建筑物的规模。

The Bow is the first major development on the east side of Centre Street, a major axis through downtown Calgary, and it provides a shared headquarters for Encana and Cenovus. The building’s form was shaped by analysis of the climate and organisations. The tower faces south, curving towards the sun to take advantage of daylight and heat, while maximising the perimeter for cellular offices with views of the Rocky Mountains. By turning the convex facade into the prevailing wind, the structural loading is minimised, thus reducing the amount of steel required for the inherently efficient diagrid system. Each triangulated section of the structure spans six storeys, helping to visually break down the scale of the building.

在建筑物向内弯曲的地方，玻璃幕墙被向前拉，形成一系列的中庭，使塔的高度达到完全的高度。这些空间起到气候缓冲地带的作用，使建筑物绝缘，并有助于大幅度减少能源消耗。由于每个楼板的尺寸都能容纳整个业务单位，因此有必要促进各公司之间的合作，并为办公空间带来社会层面的影响。因此，通往办公室楼层的垂直通道是通过三个壮观的空中花园进行的，这些花园进入24、42和54层的中庭，并包括成熟的树木、座位、会议室、餐饮设施和当地电梯核心。这些中庭的工作人员设施由大楼顶部的一个礼堂补充。

Where the building curves inwards, the glazed facade is pulled forward to create a series of atria that run the full height of the tower. These spaces act as climatic buffer zones, insulating the building and helping to significantly reduce energy consumption. As each floor plate has been sized to accommodate a whole business unit, there was a need to promote collaboration across the companies and bring a social dimension to the office spaces. Vertical access to the office floors is therefore directed through three spectacular sky gardens, which project into the atria at levels 24, 42 and 54 and incorporate mature trees, seating, meeting rooms, catering facilities and local lift cores. Staff facilities in these atria are complemented by an auditorium at the very top of the building.

弓还与周围的建筑物建立横向连接。这座塔与卡尔加里的封闭人行道系统有两处融合在一起，这一系统提供了从城市严冬中撤退的机会。二楼是开放给市民，并整合商店和咖啡馆，并与唯一的公共连接中心街，该计划完成了一个重要的行人连接在市中心的网络。从外部看，这座建筑的弧形构成了一个大型景观美化的公共广场，它的核心是西班牙艺术家乔姆·普兰萨(Jaume Plensa)的一座标志性雕塑。

The Bow also establishes lateral connections with surrounding buildings. The tower is fused at two points to Calgary’s system of enclosed walkways, which offers a retreat from the city’s harsh winters. The second floor is open to the public and integrates shops and cafes, and with the only public connection over Centre Street, the scheme completes a vital pedestrian link in the downtown network. Externally, the building’s arc defines a large landscaped public plaza, at the heart of which is a landmark sculpture by Spanish artist, Jaume Plensa.

Nigel Dancey，福斯特合伙人高级合伙人：

Nigel Dancey, Senior Partner, Foster + Partners:

“塔的形式是由独特的卡尔加里气候-面向南方，建筑曲线定义了一系列壮观的光线填充六层中庭，成熟的天空花园，咖啡馆和会议区域，这给办公室楼层带来了一个重要的社会层面。”这一原则延伸到了塔的底部，它具有很强的渗透性，有15座连接市中心的封闭桥梁，一个商店和咖啡馆的中庭，以及一个奇妙的新广场。每一个方面，从凸起的楼层到对角结构，都是设计成高效的。“弓”是卡尔加里的一个大胆的新标志，也证明了我们团队的实力和良好的当地关系。“

“The tower’s form was shaped by the unique Calgary climate – facing south, the building curves to define a series of spectacular light-filled six-storey atria, with mature sky gardens, cafes and meeting areas, which bring a vital social dimension to the office floors. This principle extends to the base of the tower, which is highly permeable, with a +15 enclosed bridge connection to downtown, an atrium of shops and cafes and a fantastic new plaza. Every aspect, from the raised floors to the diagrid structure, is designed to be highly efficient. The Bow is a bold new symbol for Calgary, and is testament to the strength of our team and excellent local relationships.”
