架构师提供的文本描述。维多利亚大学新的运动、科学和体育学区和学习共享项目为北部的足球公园校园创造了新的存在。这座新建筑划定了一条与中世纪有围墙的山城相似的边缘。这个定义为校园提供了强烈的形象和地址。对社区以外的人来说，这座新建筑是一个门户，提供了进入校园的视觉和物理连接。

Text description provided by the architects. The new Exercise Science and Sport Precinct and Learning Commons Project for Victoria University creates a new presence for the Footscray Park Campus to the north. The new building defines an edge similar to that of a medieval walled hill town. This definition provides a strong image and address to the campus. Gesturing to the community beyond, the new building is a portal providing both visual and physical connectivity into the campus.

该项目还为校园建立了一个新的中心。一座大庭院坐落在大楼的南面，周围环绕着一个巨大的折叠玻璃外墙。内部是一个充满活力和多样化的学习重点环境，支持非正式和正式的学习与一系列的空间。这座新建筑包含了一些高度专业化的实验室空间，供人类运动、娱乐和表演学院使用。

The project also creates a new centre to the campus.  A large courtyard sits to the south of the building, around which is wrapped a giant folded glass façade. Inside is a vibrant and diverse learning focused environment that supports both informal and formal learning with a series of spaces. The new building incorporates a number of highly specialised laboratory spaces for the School of Human Movement Recreation and Performance.

深入了解每个实验室空间的严格要求，并与客户反复测试这些空间定义。这座建筑本身可能被认为是一种巨大的科学实验设备，包括一个高11米的生物力学实验室，配有一个可操作的综合箱式桁架和摄像头，以及设计成模拟耗尽氧、高湿度和极端温度环境的气候控制室。

An intimate understanding of the exacting requirements of each laboratory space was gathered and the spatial definition of these repeatedly tested with the Client.  The building itself might be considered a sort of giant apparatus for a scientific experimentation, including a lofty 11 metre high Biomechanics laboratory with an integrated operable box truss and camera, and climate controlled chambers engineered to simulate depleted oxygen, high humidity and extreme temperature environments.

这个耗资6000万美元的项目包含了一系列环境上可持续的举措，并获得了五星绿色之星认证。热迷宫和烟囱支持混合模式的通风系统，为学术人员提供一个新的开放式工作环境。北部的外墙是由折叠式锌板和铝板构成，并参照景观背景着色。

This $60M development incorporates a range of environmentally sustainable initiatives and has achieved a 5 Star Greenstar Certification.  A thermal labyrinth and chimneys support a mixed mode ventilation system that services a new open plan workplace environment for academic staff.  The façade to the north is constructed from folded zinc and aluminium panels coloured with reference to the landscape setting.

这座建筑坐落在古老的马里比龙河(MaribyrnongRiver)峭壁上，刚好高于现代洪水水位。一个曾经被降级为方便垃圾场的网站，不经意间变成了一个重新想象大学校园的机会。北面，校园的宽度和一个高耸的方面跨越操场和不断改善马里比隆河，现场招手完成。广泛的横向形式为维多利亚大学宣告了一个新的前景。(鼓掌)

The building sits on the old Maribyrnong River escarpment and just above the modern flood levels.  A site that was once relegated as a convenient rubbish tip inadvertently became an opportunity to re-imagine the university campus.  North facing, the breadth of the Campus and with an elevated aspect across playing fields and ever improving Maribyrnong River, the site beckoned completion.  A sweeping horizontal form pronounces a new outlook for Victoria University.
