这个植物馆的灵感来自于大自然中的森林。
四个主要的钢结构体系像树木一般,坚固的“树干”之上伸展出宽广的“树冠”。
“树冠”聚合,覆盖上玻璃,形成植物馆的屋顶。
形式与内容统一协调。
The greenhouse was accomplished two month ago. It is used
as a representative
showroom for subtropical plantation.
The new pavilion at the botanical garden at Grueningen
relates strongly to its
context. The design was inspired by the surrounding forest, not the
built
environment. Both the formal vocabulary and the structural concept
derive from
nature. The pavilion is conceived to harmonize with and expand the
forest. The
form was developed using Voronoi tessellation, also known as
natural neighbor
interpolation. Analogous to cell division in nature, the geometry
of the roof
as surrounding membrane was determined by the position of the old
and new
trunks. The forest was augmented by four steel trees that form the
primary
structural system of the pavilion. At about five meters, the trunks
branch
toward the treetop, which forms the natural roof. A secondary
glass
construction, suspended from the steel branches, encloses the inner
space of
the greenhouse.
