Built of pre-cast concrete, Renzo Piano’s spherical, 1,000-seat movie theatre will be connected to the museum’s adjacent Saban Building with glass walkways

Architectural styles and approaches often mix freely on Los Angeles’ sun-drenched boulevards, which are lined both with icons such as Frank Gehry’s Walt Disney Concert Hall, and curiosities including the Chinese Theatre and Chateau Marmont. A case in point is Museum Row on Wilshire Boulevard: just past La Brea Tar Pits’ life-sized models of mammoths come the psychedelic wavy steel ribbons of KPF’s Petersen Automotive Museum, and the slanted skylights of Renzo Piano’s Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA).

洛杉矶阳光普照的林荫大道上，建筑风格和风格经常自由地融合在一起，林立着弗兰克·盖里(Frank Gehry)的沃尔特·迪斯尼音乐厅(Walt Disney Concert Hall)等标志性建筑，还有包括中国剧院和马蒙特庄园在内的奇观。一个很好的例子是威尔郡林荫大道上的博物馆街：就在拉布雷亚焦油坑真人大小的猛犸模型旁边，KPF的彼得森汽车博物馆(Petersen Automotive Museum)的迷幻的波浪形钢带，以及伦佐·皮亚诺(Renzo Piano)洛杉矶县艺术博物馆(LACMA)倾斜的天窗。

The latest addition to this urban hodgepodge is a gigantic concrete sphere, also by Renzo Piano Building Workshop, now taking shape next to LACMA – a structure in progess that has scooped the Wallpaper* Design Award for Best Building Site. Set to open in late 2019, under the directorship of Kerry Brougher, the impressive volume – a state-of-the-art movie theatre – is part of the new Academy Museum of Motion Pictures.

这座城市建筑的最新补充是一个巨大的混凝土球体，也是由Renzo Piano建筑工作室(Renzo Piano Building)建造的，它现在正在LACMA旁边形成-一种正在进行中的结构，已经获得了墙纸*最佳建筑工地设计奖。这部令人印象深刻的电影集将于2019年末在克里·布劳尔的领导下开幕-一家最先进的电影院-是新的电影学院博物馆的一部分。

Here, you can sit with 999 other people to share the pleasure of the film

在这里，你可以和999人坐在一起分享这部电影的乐趣。

Piano and his team, with executive architect Gensler, are also renovating an adjacent streamline Moderne building, formerly a May Company department store. Highlights of the Saban Building, as it will be known, include temporary galleries, set to open with a retrospective of Japanese animator Hayao Miyazaki; the Rolex Gallery, charting the evolution of filmmaking post second World War; and the Hurd Gallery, a 34ft-high project space that will initially host an interactive installation by TeamLab.

钢琴和他的团队，与执行建筑师詹斯勒，也正在翻新附近的流线型现代建筑，以前是一家五月公司百货公司。萨班大厦(Saban Building)的亮点将包括临时画廊，由日本动画师宫崎骏(Hayao Miyazaki)回顾展开始；劳力士画廊(Rolex)，描绘二战后电影制作的演变；赫德画廊(Hurd Gallery)，这是一个34英尺高的项目空间，最初将由TeamLab主办一个互动设施。

‘The two buildings of the museum flirt,’ says Piano. Glass bridges will connect the renovated historical structure to the new sphere, inside which a 1,000-seat theatre will show nitrate, 16mm, 35mm and 70mm films and laser projections. The total 300,000 sq ft complex, which will also feature a more intimate 288-seat theatre, a restaurant, a boutique and an education studio, is destined to be a hub for all manner of film-related activities.

“博物馆的两个建筑物调情，”钢琴说道。玻璃桥将将翻新的历史结构连接到新的球体，在该新的球体内部，1,000座剧院将显示硝酸盐、16mm、35mm和70mm的薄膜和激光投影。300,000平方英尺（约合30平方米）的综合体，也将有一个更紧密的288座剧院，一个餐厅，一个精品店和一个教育工作室，注定要成为一切与电影有关的活动的中心。

Large glass panels will embrace the sphere’s upper portion, and Piano’s idea to light this ‘lens’ at night will conjure a giant eyeball looking skywards. The reason for the form, he says, is the film-going audience: ‘In here, you sit with 999 other people, sharing the pleasure of the film and each other’s presence. The enormous screen in front is slightly curved. If you simply extend that, you end up with an orb.’

巨大的玻璃面板将拥抱球体的上部，而钢琴在夜间点燃这个“镜头”的想法将使人联想到一个巨大的眼球向天空看去。他说，这种形式的原因是电影观众：“在这里，你和999个人坐在一起，分享电影的乐趣和彼此的存在。”前面的巨大屏幕有点弯曲。如果你只是简单地扩展它，你就会得到一个轨道。

Strategic slices into the orb create one of Piano’s signature piazzas and, above, an open terrace that allows views of the Hollywood Hills. it’s just the place to reflect on movie magic and this new pleasure dome’s resonance within the LA landscape. §

对球体的战略切片创造了钢琴的标志性广场之一，上面，一个开放的平台，可以看到好莱坞山。它只是一个反思电影魔术的地方，也是洛杉矶风景中这个新的娱乐穹顶的共鸣的地方。§
