架构师提供的文本描述。位于湖边的餐厅位于一个倾斜的场地上，东南方向是新建的嘉定图书馆。在场内的其他建筑中，餐厅规模很小，但拥有一片黄金地段，因为它是湖岸上唯一的建筑，可以让水、我们的建筑和后面更大的建筑之间进行有趣的设计对话。

Text description provided by the architects. The Restaurant by the Lake is located on a sloped site, south east if the newly built Jiading Library. Among the other built structures within the site, the restaurant is small but holds a prime lot as it is the only building along the bank of the lake, allowing for an interesting design dialogue between the water, our building and the larger buildings further behind.

我们的概念是从一个内向的角度开始的，设计的目的是研究水岸和开放水域之间的关系，这将先于我们的设计方向。这个概念与水岸结构的规范不同，后者的目标是向用户提供全景视图-我们认为，这样的概念与在没有架构干预的情况下从岸上观看湖面没有什么不同。

Our concept found its beginnings from an inward point of view, and the design intent was to study the relationship between the water bank and the open water, that would then precede our design direction. This concept was unlike the norm of water bank structures that had a goal of providing a panoramic view to it's users - we felt that such a concept was no different from one viewing the lake from the bank without an architecture intervention.

我们的建筑由5块矩形混凝土砌块组成，每个体积都有不同的角度，因此必须有一个踏板地板。我们所放置的洞口如下：4个主要地块向东有开口，其中2个向天空倾斜，2个向下向湖倾斜。最后一个街区朝南有一个向下倾斜的开口，指向一片沼泽地。这5卷书作为一个整体连接在一起，但它们仍然保留着各自的空间体验，这是不同的组合(瓷砖的角度、体积尺度和关键的视觉焦点-湖泊、河岸和天空)的结果。

The massing of our building comprises of 5 rectangular concrete blocks, each of these volumes are angled off the ground differently, and it was therefore necessary to have a stepped flooring. The fenestrations that we placed are as follows : 4 main blocks have openings towards the east, 2 of which are tilted towards the sky, and two of which are tilted downwards towards the lake. The last block has a downward tilted opening facing the south, and points towards a swale. These 5 volumes are connected as a whole, but each still retain their individual spatial experience that is a result of the different compositions (angle of tile, volumetric scale and the key visual focus - the lake, the bank and the sky).­­

虽然我们的大楼是经过仔细计算的。开放让用户首先体验一个广阔的湖景，然后是银行的焦点，对岸，最后是遥远的地平线。阶梯地板，倾斜的墙壁和屋顶，不同尺度的通道创造了一种类似于穿越酒馆的空间体验。这些街区的坚固性隐藏了建筑中心的一个庭院，这是第一次来访者意想不到的发现。

The journey though our building has been carefully calculated. The openings allow users to first experience a vast view of the lake, followed by a focus of the bank, the opposite bank, and lastly the far horizon. The stepped floors, tilted walls and roofs, passages of different scales create a spatial experience akin to that of traversing through a tavern. The solidity of the blocks hide a courtyard in the center of the building, an unexpected discovery to the first time visitor.

卫生服务和工作人员厕所位于离主建筑较小的一个单独的街区内，而厨房和公共厕所则位于大楼的地下室。有两个公共入口进入大楼，主入口有一个门廊，通向一个小大厅，然后是庭院，二级入口将从庭院本身。

The sanitation services and staff restrooms are located in a separate, smaller block away from the main structure, while the kitchen, and public restrooms are in the basement of the building. There are 2 public entrances into the building, the main one has a porch that leads to a small hall, and then the courtyard, the secondary entrance would be from the courtyard itself.
