架构师提供的文本描述。茶馆，位于阿基联盟J办公室的后院，是从原来仓库倒塌的屋顶上打捞出来的部分建筑而成的。该网站非常狭窄的墙壁在三面，只有一面面向一个非开放的空间，其中包含一个游泳池。这一空间被一棵成熟的树进一步限制，设计试图通过把封闭与开放、愉悦的空间与逻辑的建构以及其他复杂的关系结合起来体现和谐。

Text description provided by the architects. The Tea House, located in the backyard of Archi-Union’s J-office, is constructed from the salvaged parts of the original warehouse’s collapsed roof. The site was extremely constricted with walls on three sides, and with only one side facing towards a nopen space that contains a pool. The space was further restricted by a mature tree.The design tries to embody harmony by integrating enclosure and openness, delightful space and logical construction and other complicated relations.

这座建筑与场地的环境相通；平面布局在逻辑上是一个模糊的四边形，因此最大限度地增加了空间。全文共分三部分。一个有盖的公共区域与游泳池的开放空间形成，地面有一个封闭的茶馆，一楼有一个图书馆，在那里有一个小的三角形阳台围绕着现有的树。还有其他更多的私人空间，如休息室、阅览室和服务室，这些空间都布置在建筑物的后面；创造了一个令人愉快的过渡空间，将公共空间和私人空间连接起来。

This building reactsto the site’s environment; the plan layout is a logically obscure quadrilateral, thus maximizing the amount of space. It is divided into three parts. A covered public area is formed towards the open space with the pool, with an enclosed tea house at ground level and library on the first floor where a small triangular balcony extends around the existing tree. Other more private spaces exist such as a lounge, reading room and service room whichare arranged towards the rear of the building; a delightful transitional space was created to connect the public space and the private spaces.

过渡空间是围绕一个连接功能空间的扭曲的非线性六面体楼梯设计的。楼梯解决了茶馆和图书馆的垂直运输问题，并在阅览室附近提供了一个内部庭院，供观赏现存的树木。这个空间是为了给普通的功能空间带来新的体验而设计的。线性空间突然转变成一种表现力的形式，从茶馆涌出，变成楼上图书馆的宁静空间，使阅览室成为一个特殊的地方。

The transitional space was designed around a twisted nonlinear hexahedron staircase, which connects the functional spaces. The stair resolves the vertical transportation issue fromthe tea house and the library and provides an inner courtyard near the reading room for viewing the existing tree. The space was designed to bring a new experience to an ordinary functional space. Linear space suddenly changes into an expressive form, surging from the tea house then transforming into a tranquilspace for the library on the floor above, making the reading room a special place to sit.

体积是一个三维不规则的形状，是不可能通过计划来理解的。扭曲形状是通过脚本设计的蚱蜢，算法插件的犀牛。然而，这种形状很难转化为可量化的信息来指导建设。由于人工施工的限制，迫切需要在施工时发明解决方案，以当地的低技术施工技术实现先进的数字化设计。首先提取结构骨架，然后用数字软件进行扫描。

The volume is a three-dimensional irregular shape which is impossible to be understood through plans. The twisting shape was designed by scripting in Grasshopper an algorithmic plug-in for Rhino. However such a shape is difficult to translate into quantifiableinformation for guiding construction. The constraints of manual construction obligedus to invent solutions at the time of construction to realize the advanced digital design with local low-tech construction techniques. Firstly we abstracted the structural skeleton which was subsequently scanned with digital software.

然后通过交错的直线重新计算这个弯曲的形状，然后这些线形成规则的表面，填补了空隙。间距被设定到木材的尺寸，因此数字‘布局’可以很容易地转换成一个手动可构造的形状。一个1：1的木材框架是通过遵循与数字模型相同的逻辑产生的；一个细分的木材模板覆盖了这个框架，以创建一个弯曲的形状工作。根据施工顺序，通过一系列上下层进行模板施工。该浇铸与普通混凝土浇筑几乎相同，钢筋沿直纹面的直线进行加固。

This curved shape was then recalculated through interlacing straight lines; these lines were then formed into ruled surfacesfilling the void. The spacing wassetto the dimension of timber, thus the digital ‘setting out’ could be easily translated into a manually constructible shape. A 1:1 timber framework was produced by following the same logic as the digital model; a subdivided timber shuttering covered this framework to create a curved form work. The form work was built through a series of upper and lower layers according to the construction sequence. The casting was almost the same as ordinary concrete casting, reinforced with re-bars following the straight lines of the ruled surface.

采用人工完成钢筋混凝土浇筑，取得了最终的物理效果。木材模板的痕迹在施工后仍印在浇筑的混凝土上，但由于手工施工造成的缺陷，如气泡、粘着失效和钢筋暴露等质量缺陷，却被独特的弯曲形状所掩盖。虽然在模板设计中存在误差，但规划和手工浇铸结合了数字化设计和低技术手工构造，为研究数字化建筑的可能性提供了很好的机会。

Concrete casting after the reinforced bar was completed by manual labor and the final physical effect was achieved. The traces of the timber formwork remained imprinted on the poured concrete after construction, with quality defects such as bubbles, adhesive failures and re-bar exposure present due to the manual construction – defects, however, that are obscured by the unique curved shape. Although there are errorsofin the formwork, planning and manual casting the combination of digital design and low-tech manual construction provided a great opportunity to study the possibilities of digital architecture.
