架构师提供的文本描述。露台景观咖啡厅有一个特殊的位置在圣路易斯市中心，密苏里州的最新城市公园，城市花园。演播室杜伦建筑师被邀请参与城市花园项目，在现场设计一座咖啡馆和一座维修大楼。达勒姆咖啡厅看起来和雕塑公园里的艺术品一样显赫和成功，但却是艺术中的一座建筑。

Text description provided by the architects. Terrace View Café has a special location within downtown St. Louis, Missouri’s newest urban park, Citygarden. Studio | Durham Architects was invited into the Citygarden project to design a café building and a maintenance building on the site. The café by Studio | Durham appears equally as notable and successful as the pieces of art within the sculpture park, but distinguishes itself as a building among art.

露台景观咖啡厅是在纳尔逊·伯德·沃尔茨(Nelson Byrd Woltz)的景观建筑师完成景观设计之后设计的，公园内的雕塑位置已经建立起来。达勒姆工作室有机会称赞现有的设计，并为网站建造自己的建筑。

The Terrace View Café was designed after landscape architecture designs had been completed by Nelson Byrd Woltz Landscape Architects, and the sculptures’ placements within the park were already established. Studio | Durham was given the opportunity to compliment the existing designs, and make their own building for the site.

 Overall Site Plan

整体地盘计划

网关基金会要求工作室杜伦创造一个咖啡厅空间，容纳100名顾客，纳入莱格的一个大型青铜浮雕，并在内部空间的雕塑，必须保护不受元素。经过几次设计迭代之后，达勒姆工作室在一块石座上建造了一个米西亚玻璃和钢结构。

The Gateway Foundation asked Studio | Durham to create a café space to seat 100 customers, to incorporate a large bronze relief by Leger, and include space in the interior for a sculpture that must be protected from the elements. After a few design iterations, Studio Durham settled on a Miesian glass and steel structure on a stone pedestal.

咖啡厅有一个坚实的基础，但很容易与公园的语言在开放的上层。石座隐藏在较低层次的咖啡厅厨房，同时也是莱格青铜浮雕的坐骑。上面是一个玻璃和钢盒子，里面有一个大的露天餐厅，里面有保护的雕塑。简单的，极简的内部延伸，通过玻璃延伸到一个大的露台，在那里的屋顶悬臂出不对称，以保护户外座位免受严酷的阳光。

The café building has a strong solid base, but blends easily with the language of the park on the open upper level. The stone pedestal hides the café kitchens on a lower level, and also serves as the mount for the Leger bronze relief. Above, a glass and steel box holds a large open dining space with the protected sculpture. The simple, minimalist interior extends out through the glass onto a large terrace where the roof cantilevers out asymmetrically to protect outdoor seating from the harsh sun.

咖啡厅位于城市花园的东北角，可从公园内或圣路易斯市的街道前往。玻璃结构让游客可以轻松地看到花园的设计和整个公园的雕塑。露台观景咖啡厅是一个欣赏艺术和城市生活的地方，也是一个值得自己欣赏的建筑。

The café is located on the north-eastern corner of Citygarden, approachable from within the park or from the streets of St. Louis city. The glass structure allows visitors relaxing views of the garden design and the sculptures placed throughout the park. The Terrace View Café is a place to appreciate the art and the urban city life, but also a building to be appreciated on its own.
