架构师提供的文本描述。该数据中心，也称为AM3，位于阿姆斯特丹科学园，包括一个办公室和一个数据大楼。它拥有不少于150个网络，将成为欧洲领先的网络地点之一。考虑到其周围的环境，即现代化、功能性、高效率、可持续和向访问者和用户开放，数据中心将成为其分支机构的典范。

Text description provided by the architects. The datacenter, also known as AM3, is situated in the Amsterdam Science Park and includes an office and a data building. With no less than 150 networks it will be one of the leading network locations in Europe. By taking its surroundings in consideration, being modern, functional, efficient, sustainable and open to its visitors and users, the datacenter will be exemplary within its branch.

数据中心将是这类建筑中最可持续的建筑之一。数据中心中的机器释放出的大量热量将被非常有效地利用。不久，LEED(能源和环境设计的领导地位)认证的建筑将使用地下蓄热层(ATES)，以尽可能避免机械冷却。多余的热量将用于加热附近的建筑物，并将提供给第三方用于其他用途。一个草刚玉植被屋顶将覆盖数据中心。这个绿色屋顶起到缓冲水和吸收二氧化碳的作用，同时它也是一个额外的隔热层，将阻止建筑物升温。出于安全考虑，所有对建筑物的运作至关重要的数据层和其他组件都位于阿姆斯特丹军械基准之上。因此，数据建筑物被提升到离地面4.2米的高度，所以所有的数据都在洪水的情况下受到保护。中间的空间用于装载、卸载和储存等各种物流功能。

The datacenter will be one of the most sustainable buildings of its kind. The vast amount of heat that the machines in the datacenter emit, will be used very efficiently. The soon LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified building will use Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES) in the ground to avoid mechanical cooling as much as possible. Excess heat shall be used to heat nearby buildings and will be available for other uses by third parties. A grass sedum vegetation roof will cover the datacenter. This green roof acts as a water buffer and absorbs CO2, while it also is an additional insulation layer that will prevent the building from heating up. Driven by safety reasons all data floors and other components that are vital for the functioning of the building, are situated above Amsterdam Ordnance Datum. Therefore the data building is lifted 4.2 meters above ground level, so all data is protected in case of flooding. The space in between is used for various logistic functions such as loading, unloading and storage.

办公大楼由两个镜像和堆叠的L形卷组成.入口处和公共设施位于L-体积较低的地方，向科学园开放.这些办公室位于L-体积较高的地方.在地面水平和上层L之间创建的空间是由一个玻璃前面包围，创造了一个中庭。因此，当从科学园进入办公楼时，办公大楼就会散发出透明和开放的光芒。一条空中走道，提供对周围地区的很好的看法，从客户的照顾室到办公室大楼的数据室。

The office building comprises two mirroring and stacked L-shaped volumes. The entrance and public functions are situated in the lower L-volume, which opens towards Science Park. The offices are situated in the upper L-volume. The space created between ground level and the upper L is surrounded by a glass front creating an atrium. As a result the office building radiates transparency and openness when approached from the Science Park. An aerial walkway, that offers great views on the surrounding area, leads from the customer care rooms to the data rooms in the office building.

使用中性阳极铝墙面的双层皮肤，使数据建立了一种深度感。由于所用的黑色阳极铝，办公大楼的墙面颜色将更深。由于建筑的透明性，通过在室外使用光和暗的百叶窗，这些建筑具有鲜明的个性，符合阿姆斯特丹科学园的发展计划。

The use of a double skin of neutral anodised aluminium wall cladding gives the data building a sense of depth. The wall cladding of the office building will be darker in colour due to the black anodised aluminium used. By using light and dark blinds on the outside, the buildings get a distinctive character and fit in the development plan of the Amsterdam Science Park, because of their transparency.
