架构师提供的文本描述。该卫生实验室是为爱荷华州大学设计的，由OPN建筑师设计，并于2010年作为一个协作和跨学科的实验室设施完成。除了封闭和开放的实验室空间外，它还具有传统的学术功能，如办公空间、工作空间和小组会议空间。更多的图片和建筑师描述后，休息。

Text description provided by the architects. Designed for the University of Iowa, the Hygienic Laboratory was designed by OPN Architects and was completed in 2010 as a collaborative and interdisciplinary laboratory facility.  In addition to both closed and open laboratory space, the complex features traditional academic functions such as office space, workspaces, and group meeting space.  More images and architect description after the break.

大学卫生实验室为国家卫生机构提供了现代化和灵活的检测和管理设施，同时向公众展示了可见性和透明度的形象。该建筑的形式和布局是由一个单一的，开放的实验室空间，运行的长度。作为一个坚实的砖石杆挂在第一层之上，它定义了一个强大的东西轴。沿着北面和南面的窗户丝带打破了长长的高地，让实验室里有充足的自然光。

The University Hygienic Laboratory provides a modern and flexible testing and administration facility for the state hygienic agency, while projecting an image of visibility and transparency to the public. The building’s form and layout was driven by a singular, open lab space that runs the length of the building. Articulated as a solid masonry bar floating above the first floor, it defines a strong east-west axis. Ribbons of windows along the north and south facades break up the long elevations and allow an abundance of natural light in the labs.

外部装饰包括各种材料，给建筑一个分层的组成，阐明了活动的内部。轻色调的砖和石灰石覆盖了二楼实验室的“酒吧”，给它一个安全，但有吸引力的美学。全高度玻璃广泛应用于第一层和较低层，以满足办公空间的采光需求，并提供透明和视图。灰色金属包裹垂直循环和服务核心，以及第三层机械阁楼，给建筑一个独特的轮廓和额外的高度。这两个宣布的入口特征是突出当代，白色铝复合板。

The exterior finishes include a variety of materials, giving the building a layered composition that articulates the activities within. Light-toned brick and limestone clad the second floor lab “bar,” giving it a secure, but appealing aesthetic. Full height glass is used extensively on the first and lower levels to fulfill daylighting needs in office space and provide transparency and views. Gray metal wraps vertical circulation and service cores, as well as a third story mechanical penthouse that gives the building a distinctive profile and additional height. The two announced entry features are accentuated by a contemporary, white aluminum composite panel.

在北面和南面公布的公共和雇员入口通过建筑物组织一个垂直的横轴，并在这些高地上创建标志性的焦点。北边的公共入口有一个两层高的中庭，有一个巨大的玻璃幕墙，为游客创造了戏剧性的第一印象，并为公众游览提供了舞台。玻璃墙对面是另一面玻璃墙，可以直接看到二楼开放的实验室区域。南面的员工入口延伸到主要建筑形式之外，顶部是一堵较窄的结构玻璃窗墙，垂直比例与北部的公共入口相当。

Announced public and employee entrances on the north and south facades organize a perpendicular cross-axis through the building and create signature focal points on those elevations. The public entrance along the North features a two-story high atrium with a large structural glass window wall that creates a dramatic first impression for visitors and provides staging for public tours. Opposite the window wall is another glass wall with views directly into the open lab area on the second floor. The employee entrance to the south extends beyond the main building form and is capped by a narrower structural glass window wall, with similar vertical proportions to the public entrance on the north.

实验室空间旨在最大限度地提高效率和灵活性，同时鼓励不同部门和项目之间的协作和互动。一排排多功能的实验室站与干燥的实验室工作空间配对，使工作人员能够根据需要轻松地扩展和收缩各种实验室活动。致力于生物或化学的实验室站的数量也可能会波动，确保新的设施将适应该机构今天和未来的需求。

The lab space is designed to maximize efficiency and flexibility, while encouraging collaboration and interaction between different departments and projects. Rows of versatile lab stations are paired with dry lab workspaces, allowing staff to easily expand and contract various lab activities as needed. The number of lab stations devoted to biology or chemistry can also fluctuate, ensuring the new facility will accommodate the demands of the agency today and well into the future.

流通系统的设计是为了保持安全和公共区域之间的隔离，为公众和雇员提供专门的入口，以适应这些不同的需求和准入要求。其结果是访问控制和视觉开放性的层次结构。一个半公共走廊的长度为二楼，让游客可以清楚地看到测试工作通过大窗户进入开放的实验室，使它有可能提供深度旅游，而不损害安全或干扰实验室活动。作为一个公共机构，展示卫生实验室对公众健康和环境保护的重要性，对客户来说是非常重要的。半公共走廊沿线由联合国指定的开放式工作站为科学家和实验室工作人员提供了举行会议和完成其他非实验室工作的空间，进一步增强了公众的开放性。

The circulation system is designed to maintain separation between secure and public areas with the specific entrances for the public and employees tailored to those different needs and access requirements. The result is a hierarchy of access control and visual openness. A semi-public corridor running the length of the second floor allows visitors a clear view of testing work through large windows into the open lab, making it possible to provide in-depth tours without compromising security or disturbing lab activities. As a public agency, it is very important to the client to demonstrate the importance of the hygienic lab to public health and environmental protection. Un-assigned open work stations along the semi-public corridor provide space for scientists and lab staff to hold meetings and complete other non-lab work, further enhancing public openness.
