架构师提供的文本描述。结果减少了2头非洲象的二氧化碳排放量(每年10，635公斤)，并节省了每年6，100平方米的家庭消耗的能源(55，974千瓦时/年)。这些数据总结了汉堡银行大型造船厂货物堆场中的170名铁路工人的新建筑住宅办公室、更衣室和厕所的生态平衡。

Text description provided by the architects. The result decreases CO2 emissions by the weight of 2 African elephants (10,635 kg/year) and saves as much energy as 6 100 square metre homes consume in a year (55,974 kWh/year). These are the figures summing up the ecological balance of the new building housing offices, locker rooms and toilets for about 170 railway workers in the goods yard on the bank of Hamburg’s Spree dockyard.

所有这些都是在一座3层的大型建筑中建造的，建筑面积是老建筑占地面积的一半，为170名工人提供了公共空间、更衣室、厕所以及办公空间。

All this in a massive 3 level construction built on half the amount of land as was occupied by the old building, offering room for about 170 workers with common areas, locker rooms and toilets as well as office space.

这座建筑位于铁轨之间，它的白色陶瓷墙在这种异质的环境中形成了一个真正的地标。使用陶瓷也有实际的好处，提供坚固，易于清洁的建筑物表面使用这么多人。

The building is located among the railway tracks, and its white ceramic walls form a true landmark in this heterogeneous context. Use of ceramic has practical benefits too, providing robust, easy to clean surfaces in a building used by so many people.

“太阳帆”的概念包含在建筑物的立方体中，防止影子区的形成，同时改善其外观，它提供了淋浴用水所需的约四分之一的能量。

The concept of the “solar sail”, incorporated in the cube of the building and preventing creation of shadow zones while improving its appearance, provides about a quarter of the energy required to heat water for the showers.

这些数字说得很清楚，因为汉堡建筑工作室blauraum专注于项目中的可持续设计，因为人们倾向于只关注大规模的绿色项目，而像这样的小型建筑才是真正的不同之处。

The figures speak clearly, as the Hamburg architectural studio Blauraum focused on sustainable design in the project, because people tend to pay attention only to large-scale green projects, when it is smaller buildings like this one that actually make all the difference.
