这座建筑的概念叙述是基于三种有目的设计操作，以回应现场提供的机会/限制。从城市设计的角度来看，这座建筑的聚集是由先前存在于现场的弹药仓库和木屋的先例轮廓决定的。

The conceptual narrative for this building is based on three scales of purposeful design operations in response to opportunities/limitations offered by the site. From the urban design perspective, the massing of this building is determined by the precedent outlines of a munitions warehouse and a wooden shed, previously present on the site.

新建筑的形式将这些体积的微小几何图形统一为一种有凝聚力的建筑形式，同时改善了建筑物周围的行人循环路径以及与街区上其他建筑物的空间关系。

The form of the new building unites motley geometries of these volumes into a cohesive building form, while improving pedestrian circulation paths around the building and spatial relationships with other buildings on the block.

“萨姆罗德”的物质调色板也是建立在历史先例的基础上的。然而，传统的建筑技术却是按照当今设计美学的标准重新诠释的，并对建筑的当代特征做出了明确的贡献。

The material palette of “Samrode” is also based in the historic precedent. Traditional construction techniques, nevertheless, are re-interpreted according to standards of present-day design aesthetic and contribute to the unmistakably contemporary character of the building.

尤其要注意的是，沿着主门面堆砌的砖块，因为它可以将与不透明砖仓库先例的视觉特征非常相似的东西与必须具备的光线要求和现代办公建筑类型的景观结合起来。

See-through stacking of bricks along the main façade should be noted in particular, as it allows combining close resemblance to the visual character of the opaque brick warehouse precedent with the must-have requirement for light and views of a modern-day office building typology.

从一个空间到另一个空间，以及从建筑内部到外部的城市环境，都建立了强有力的视觉联系。无论是透过比例均匀的窗户，还是透过透明或隐蔽的幕墙表面，所产生的视觉效果都是分层的空间组合和深度。

Strong visual connections are established from one space to another, as well as from interior of the building to the urban environment outside. Whether one is looking through generously proportioned windows or surfaces of transparent/veiled curtain walls, the resulting visual effect is that of layered spatial composition and depth.
