架构师提供的文本描述。这座建筑的外观设计似乎体现了相互矛盾的任务：在吸引游客的同时，也没有在独立学校校园的外围营造一座建筑的原始环境。坐落在斜坡景观的底部，一边是树林和湿地，另一边是高尔夫球场，这座建筑呈现出低矮起伏的轮廓。这座16，500平方英尺的建筑被植被覆盖的屋顶所覆盖，这是周围植物群的颜色，帮助它与景观进一步协调-几乎从一些有利的角度消失了。

Text description provided by the architects. The exterior design embodies seemingly contradictory missions: creating an arresting presence to beckon visitors, while simultaneously not upstaging the building’s pristine environs at the periphery of an independent school’s campus. Sited at the bottom of a sloping landscape, between woods and wetlands on one side and a golf course on the other, the building presents a low and undulating profile. The 16,500-square-foot structure is capped by a vegetated roof that is the color of surrounding flora, helping it harmonize further with the landscape – almost disappearing from some vantage points.

从校园的角度看，穿过国道，有节奏的立面可能蕴藏着许多可能的功能，比如博物馆、教室或实验室。事实上，它有着坚实的基础设施：一个燃烧可持续采伐的木屑的生物质设施，用来加热霍奇基斯学校，它有600多名居民和85栋建筑，总面积达120万平方英尺。国际气候变化专门委员会(InternationalPanelonClimateChange)指定了一种碳中性燃料，当地来源的木屑是可持续管理的森林的副产品；它们每年替代约15万加仑进口燃料油，总体上减少了排放，其中二氧化硫的排放量大幅下降了90%以上。垃圾被收集起来用作蔬菜园的肥料，由学生们照料。生物质能设施是学校承诺到2020年成为一个碳中性校园的一个组成部分。

Viewed from the campus, across a state road, the rhythmic façade might harbor any number of likely functions, perhaps a museum, classroom, or laboratory. It houses, in fact, gritty infrastructure: a biomass facility that burns sustainably harvested woodchips to heat the Hotchkiss School with its more than 600 residents and 85 buildings that total 1.2 million square feet. Designated a carbon neutral fuel by the International Panel on Climate Change, the locally sourced wood chips are the byproduct of sustainably managed forests; they replace some 150,000 gallons of imported fuel oil per year, cutting emissions overall, most dramatically sulfur dioxide by more than 90 percent. Waste ash is collected for use as fertilizer for vegetable gardens tended by the students. The biomass facility is an integral part of the school’s commitment to becoming a carbon-neutral campus by 2020.

中央布鲁克建筑师，由合伙人杰斐逊领导。莱利，FAIA，与客户确定，基础设施不需要沉闷，内部或外部。这座炉房的设计是为了作为一个活生生的教室做双重任务。它向学生和社区团体展示生态友好型技术和可持续建筑材料。沿着俯瞰锅炉房并环绕锅炉房的阁楼走廊，一个非正式的展览展示了解释图表和地图，而一系列交互式计算机控制台则跟踪性能指标。

Centerbrook Architects, led by Partner Jefferson. B. Riley, FAIA, determined with the client that infrastructure need not be dreary, inside or out. This furnace dwelling was designed to do double duty as a living classroom. It exposes ecologically friendly technologies and sustainable construction materials to touring students and community groups. Along the mezzanine walkway, which overlooks and circumnavigates the boiler room, an informal exhibit displays explanatory charts and maps, while a series of interactive computer consoles track performance metrics.

展览还重点介绍了各种木材产品，当地丰富的可再生建筑材料，这些材料被用于框架、桁架、栏杆、单板和木复合板。森林管理委员会在可行的情况下使用经认证的木材或土著木材；例如，栏杆是在当地采伐、碾磨、烘干和制造的。这座建筑的桁架是胶合木材，它优化了这种可再生资源的结构价值。与钢筋混凝土或钢相比，胶合胶具有更小的体现能，可用于更长的跨度、更重的载荷和复杂的形状。在室外，游客可以沿着一条自然的道路，可以看到绿色的屋顶，它吸收和过滤雨水径流；他们还可以观察到雨花园、生物湿地和附近的湿地。

The exhibit also highlights various wood products, locally abundant and renewable building materials that were used throughout for framing, trusses, railings, veneer, and wood composite boards. Forest Stewardship Council certified wood or indigenous timber was used whenever feasible; for example, the railings were harvested, milled, kiln-dried, and fabricated locally. The building’s trusses are glue-laminated timber, which optimizes the structural values of this renewable resource. Glulam has less embodied energy than reinforced concrete or steel and can be used for much longer spans, heavier loads, and complex shapes. Outside, visitors can follow a nature path that affords views of the green roof, which absorbs and filters rainwater runoff; they also can observe a rain garden, bioswales, and nearby wetlands.

这座建筑将获得LEED认证的保护功能，其中包括可再生的层压板结构系统；节水管道固定装置；使用具有高再生含量的本地材料；室内充足的日光；以及高效的机械系统、照明和外部皮肤。

The building is slated for LEED certification for conservation features that include a renewable, laminated wood structural system; water-conserving plumbing fixtures; use of local materials with a high recycled content; an abundance of daylight inside; and highly efficient mechanical systems, lighting, and exterior skin.
