國方汽車電子項目致力于汽車零部件的開發、生產和銷售，對加快汽車零部件產業在該區域聚集和打造先進裝備制造產業集群具有重要意義。如何體現該區域的合作、融合性質與該企業的入駐激起的浪花是設計整體思想的關鍵�；�于總體背景，設計師選擇著重從外立面、空間構成、幾何元素、深層意義、城市關系等角度表達想法。

The Guofang Automotive Electronics project is dedicated to developing, producing and selling automotive components, which is of great significance in accelerating the gathering of the automotive components industry in the region and creating an advanced equipment manufacturing industry cluster. The key to the overall idea of the design is how to reflect the cooperative, integrated nature of the area and the waves stirred up by the presence of this enterprise Based on the general context, the designer focused on expressing ideas regarding façade, spatial composition, geometric elements, more profound meaning, urban relationships, etc.

建筑所處區域多為低矮廠房及單一色彩外立面樓宇，缺乏現代化產業氣息。為突顯國方電子的高科技企業形象，借助玻璃幕墻、幾何元素將辦公研發大樓打造為具有立體感、畫面感的區域獨特風尚。研發辦公大樓的空間分布巧妙而不擁擠，與周圍建筑產生美感的摩擦碰撞的同時，又與廠房形成一種統一的韻味。設計師致力于打造和諧而富有獨特美感的城市區域空間。

Low-rise factories and single-coloured facades mainly characterize the area where the building is located, lacking a modern industrial atmosphere. In order to highlight the high-tech corporate image of Suzhou National Square Automotive Electronics Co., Ltd., the office and R&D building have been created with the help of glass curtain walls and geometric elements to create a unique regional style with a three-dimensional and graphic sense. The spatial distribution of the office and R&D building is clever and uncrowded, creating aesthetic friction and collision with the surrounding buildings while forming a unified flavour with the factory. The designers are committed to creating a harmonious and distinctive urban space with a unique aesthetic.

為彰顯企業文化與突出個性標識，外在的視覺表現與內在的韻味表達都顯得尤為重要。簡單的幾何特性和深厚的文化屬性被視作簡潔傳神的設計方案的首選。因此，“方”與“圓”成為此次“破題”最為關鍵的設計元素。方形的棱角分明展現的是積極進取的態度和充滿活力的攻堅決心。圓形的自然和諧囊括的是溝通交流、通達協調的理念。簡單的情緒表達并不是設計的最終目的，將企業文化、管理智慧、總部職能匯聚于設計當中才能將建筑的情緒得以升華，將簡單的幾何元素賦予內涵。

In order to highlight the corporate culture and individual identity, both the external visual expression and the internal rhythm are of particular importance. Simple geometric features and deep cultural attributes are the first choices for a simple and evocative design solution. Therefore, the most crucial design factors are 'square' and 'circle'. The square shape's angularity indicates an aggressive attitude and a vibrant determination to attack. The natural harmony of the circle encapsulates the concept of communication and coordination. The simple expression of emotion is not the ultimate goal of the design. Still, the convergence of corporate culture, management wisdom and headquarters functions in the design is what sublimates the emotion of the building and gives substance to the simple geometric elements.

為將不同特點的“方”與“圓”結合，達到“淺深各有值，方圓隨所蓄”的意境，“圓”與“方”的大小、布局、銜接都是精心布置的。通過幾何元素的巧妙搭配，用簡潔通俗的手法傳達中華傳統哲學思想在企業管理中巧妙運用的智慧。通過幾何元素的精準構建，運用巧妙的空間布局突顯設計方案對空間融合、功能區分、建筑可持續性的關注。這種思想和設計都旨在表達總部所承載的研發、協調、領導、權衡、文化、生態的特質。設計方案不拘泥于建筑本體的內涵發掘與形象表達，還聚焦于區域內“陰陽”調和的一體化目標。

In order to combine the different characteristics of the 'square' and 'circle' and to achieve the mood of 'the depth and shape of the spring can be created freely', the 'circle' and 'square' are carefully arranged in terms of size, layout and articulation. Through the clever combination of geometric elements, the wisdom of traditional Chinese philosophical thinking in corporate management is conveyed simply and popularly. Through the precise construction of geometric elements, the clever spatial layout highlights the design solution's focus on spatial integration, functional differentiation and architectural sustainability. The idea and the design are intended to express the qualities of research and development, coordination, leadership, balance, culture and a comfortable work environment carried by the headquarters. The design is not limited to the exploration and expression of the building itself but also focuses on the integration of the area.

設計方案試圖在廠區與城市界面的內外關系上進行突破，同時刻畫建筑不同于廠房的體量感與外立面。

The design scheme attempts to make a breakthrough in the internal and external relationship between the factory campus and the urban interface while portraying the sense of volume and facade of the building as distinct from the factory.

從幾何類型上，利用方形塑造出嚴謹、剛性、易讀的屬性；而圓是柔和、過渡、自然的。作為一個廠區配套辦公建筑，方形位于地塊拐角邊界使建筑更易于增強城市地塊界面感，圓形則作為休閑區域更偏向地塊內向的自然和流動。從功能上，方形體量旨在容納辦公研發人員并進行企業文化展示，打造區別于車間的辦公環境，圓形體量則是廠區內的人文、休閑的配套功能。

整體方案渴望打造出具有“效率”、“幸福感”、“滿意度”的辦公建筑。

In terms of geometric typology, the square shape the attributes of preciseness, rigidity and legibility, while the circle is soft, transitional and natural. As a factory support office building, the square is located at the corner boundary of the site making the building more likely to enhance the sense of the urban plot interface. At the same time, the circle is more natural and flows as a leisure area inward towards the plot. In terms of function, the square volume is intended to accommodate office workers and R&D staff and display corporate culture, creating an office environment distinct from the workshop. In contrast, the circular volume is a supporting function for humanities and leisure within the factory.
The overall concept aspires to create an office building with "efficiency", "happiness", and "satisfaction".

設計在建筑外表面采用了大量的玻璃幕墻，主樓部分公共區域與研發區域在外立面通過不同的材質加以區分，而副樓則全部采用玻璃幕墻使得公共景觀區域更加開闊，提升了建筑的自然屬性，其既詮釋了“方圓調和”，又使得整個建筑顯得輕盈而現代。這是一種新型的辦公建筑——既簡單、高效，又具有標志性。

大量的玻璃幕墻與周遭用房之間形成的統一和對立，彰顯建筑在群體中的主體地位。

The design uses a large number of glass curtain walls on the external surfaces of the building, with the public areas of the main building and the research and development areas distinguished by different materials on the facade, while the secondary building uses all-glass curtain walls to open up the public landscape areas and enhance the natural attributes of the building. It not only interprets the "harmony between square and circle" but also makes the whole building appears light and modern. This is a new office building -- simple, efficient and iconic.
The unity and contrast between the extensively glazed façade and the surrounding buildings underline the building's dominant position within the group.

而建筑內部空間的營造，建筑師在立方體中間由小至大挖去一個圓臺，不僅提高了建筑內部的自然光采光，產生了一個有趣的中庭，提供了一個高品質辦公環境；而且在靈活的框架內，創建了一系列的社交空間，以鼓勵非正式會議、合作和終極創新。

As for the creation of the building's internal spaces, the architects have excavated a circular platform in the middle of the cube from small to large to not only enhance the natural light intake inside the building and produce an interesting atrium that provides a high quality office environment, but also to create a series of social spaces within a flexible framework to encourage informal meetings, collaboration and ultimate innovation.




▲ 中庭，atrium©徐英達

不同于傳統方方正正的中庭樣式，建筑的中庭空間由數個不規則圓形盤旋錯落而成。中庭將自然光引入每一樓層的圓環中，帶給人一種自然舒適的感覺。這種舒適感引導人們在中庭聚集，讓人們在開敞空間中交流互動。中庭打破了樓層間的間隔，使整個建筑是交互的、流動的。設計師大膽的將獨特的幾何元素運用于中庭，使其顯得時尚而自然，更是“方”“圓”組合的內化。設計師希望中庭的“圓”與該建筑整體的方形形成鮮明對比，以延續“方”“圓”調和的理念。在建筑物中以仰視視角觀察中庭，天圓地方的陰陽調和觀念更是讓人深有其感。

In contrast to the traditional square atrium, the building's atrium space is made up of several irregular circles in a staggered pattern. The atrium brings natural light into the circles on each floor, providing a sense of natural comfort. The sense of comfort leads people to gather in the atrium, allowing them to interact with each other in an open space. The atrium breaks down the spacing between floors, making the whole building interactive and fluid. The designer boldly used unique geometric elements in the atrium to make it look stylish and natural but also to internalize the combination of "square" and "circle". The designer wanted the 'circle' of the atrium to contrast with the square shape of the building as a whole to continue reconciling the 'square' and the 'circle'. Looking up at the atrium from within the building, the harmonization of "yin" and "yang" is a compelling concept.

“方圓調和”的理念不僅表現在外觀的美感表達上，更深化于縱向可持續維度中。方、圓、順滑的曲線等幾何元素帶來的是夏季隔熱通風，冬季保溫節能，自然光層層下滲的功效。

The concept of "harmony between square and circle" is not only expressed in the aesthetic expression of the exterior but is also deepened in the vertical sustainability dimension. Geometric elements such as squares, circles and smooth curves provide thermal insulation and ventilation in summer, heat preservation and energy saving in winter and natural light entering different floors.

這個項目是工作室在4年前初創時期有幸接觸的最大體量的項目，雖然我們只是承擔了方案設計，但不同于工作室其他小尺度的城市更新、鄉村文旅、零售商業的設計，這個項目也拓寬了我們的實踐邊界�；仡櫿麄�項目歷程，雖然項目由于工期、造價以及協作等因素在許多方面（立面幕墻控制、平面布局、機電整合等）存在各種不完美，但也一定程度上實現了初始概念方案的想法，并讓我們在更宏觀的城市層級、更大體量的建筑設計（與EPC和設計院合作）、更大尺度的景觀界面上積累了不可或缺的經驗。作為一個成長中的工作室，感謝這樣一個項目幫助我們學習如何更加全面協調進度計劃，組織控制擴初設計、施工圖設計及施工配合等工作，在此也非常感謝業主與總包方的信任與配合。

The project is the largest volume project that the studio was fortunate enough to be exposed to when it was first established four years ago. Although we only undertook the schematic design, unlike the studio's other small-scale urban renewal, rural cultural tourism and retail, commercial designs, the project also broadened our practice boundaries. Looking back on the whole project, although there are various imperfections in many aspects (facade curtain wall control, plan layout, MEP integration, etc.) due to the project duration, cost and collaboration, we have to a certain extent, realized the idea of the initial concept design and accumulated our necessary experience in the urban macro level, larger volume architectural design (in cooperation with EPC and design institute), and larger scale landscape interface. As a growing studio, we are grateful for such a project to help us learn how to coordinate the schedule more comprehensively, organize and control the expansion design, construction drawing design and construction cooperation and so on. We are also grateful for the trust and cooperation of the owner and the general contractor.
