美国马里兰州巴尔的摩市
In support of Drexel’s vision for its Market Street address, the Daskalakis Athletics Center was conceived as a crossroads between academic and residential precincts, helping reaffirm Drexel’s identity along one of Philadelphia’s major urban corridors
德雷克塞尔大学体育馆 (DRC)是一个综合性体育设施,沿费城市场街形成独特的大学与社区活动中心。新添部分在现有运动设施基础上增加了大量休闲空间,利用现代的设计语汇展示出德雷克塞尔大学在技术与工程教育领域的领先位置。
休闲中心通过数个公共入口以及透明的立面与街道互动,使人们可以看到建筑内部运动的景象。DRC成为了校园组团与学生俱乐部的活动中心,同时也是多个社区机构的主要场所,例如ROTC和费城西部公立学校。德雷克塞尔对健身活动的投入远远超过规划预期。超过2000人的非学生会员使得这座建筑成为校园社区真正的中心。
The building is an addition to the existing athletic center, located at one of the busiest corridors in West Philadelphia

设计总体目标是提升DRC西向、南向与东向立面的吸引力,将日光引入室内并通过德雷克塞尔特征设计语汇对外展示内部丰富的场景。主要设计策略是将大型健身房作为从主干道和周边活动空间可以看到的中心方块,并通过两层楼动感的器械与运动场面激活市场街。同时健身者也能欣赏到外面流动的街景。另一个重要决策是将从草坪上原DRC入口开始沿墙体贯穿建筑一直向下通到市场街的公共主干道纳入设计。这个大型的下降步行道形成新旧建筑间必需的防火隔离,提供穿过街区的捷径并且提供通向新健身房的视野。建筑背街一侧的户外广场面对校园中为数不多的绿色空间。广场本身是一个五彩斑斓并可以渗透的橡胶地面,是健身房在户外的延伸,可作为健身课、舞蹈、瑜伽、甚至毕业典礼的空间。
Key functions are placed at the corners of the facility to activate the floor plate and are articulated on the exterior through major windows and clerestories
The south-facing window wall of clear and colored laminated glazing, metal, and wood panels, forms a series of undulating bays that evoke Drexel’s insignia colors and define individual user spaces within the larger communal environment of the fitness, weights, and cardio areas
The outdoor exercise plaza on the north side of the building is a colorful rubber carpet of the university’s colors
The interior palette is mostly neutral, picking up tones form the natural materials of zinc, wood, concrete, and aluminum
On the second floor, the fitness area overlooks Market Street
The main gym serves as a central activity space
A jogging track on a mezzanine level encircles the basketball court volume
Clerestory windows filter in diffuse light in the exercise suites

Daylighting studies of the facade treatment were done to test its performance
The building responds to solar orientations, maximizing daylight while shielding users from direct solar radiation
The folding facade opens up views to the activity on the street
The unique glass facade portrays a high-tech, contemporary image while showcasing the activities within the facilty

最终的设计既是新增建筑也是对基地问题的解决方案。从城市设计角度看,设计任务是通过对新获得的分隔DRC与人行道的18英尺土地的利用以及将新立面延伸穿过整个街区一直到33街,在市场街为德雷克塞尔大学创建全新且引人注目的展示。基地在市场街的两个转角成为室外咖啡馆,使沿街的大型公共大厅成为多功能空间并适应多样的天气。
