这是AG Leventis基金会的一个带有餐厅和公寓的新的美术馆。AG Leventis是一个支持促进希腊文化的教育，文化和慈善事业的私人基金。腐蚀的建筑形式是受到对塞浦路斯气候挑战的特别回应的影响，在虚与实之间创造出一种有趣的稀薄感受，同时产生一些列的公共或私人的庭院和花园空间，通过它们连接到接到以及北部Pentadaktylos山脉的壮美景观，并且对Nicosia的古代和现代都产生共鸣。

A new art gallery with restaurant and apartments for the AG Leventis Foundation, a private foundation supporting educational, cultural and philanthropic causes which promotes Hellenic culture. The eroded building form is inspired by the vernacular response to Cyprus’s climatic challenges, creating a tenuous play between solid and void and generating a series of courtyards and gardens, both public and private, which connect to the street and the spectacular views to the Pentadaktylos Mountains to the north and resonate with both ancient and contemporary quarters of Nicosia.

为这个展现该家庭私人藏品创造一个新的文化中心，同时又能帮助Nicosia城市重生，这是一个相当有趣的挑战。仔细设计的开口方向为艺术馆提供了城市景观，让艺术和文物连接到一个更广阔的文化环境当中。美术馆里充满了经过特殊设计以去除有害紫外线的天窗照进来的自然光线。美术馆的上两层是通过光线连接起来的。

Creating a new cultural centre that embodies the personality of the family collection and also contributes to the regeneration of Nicosia has proved an interesting challenge. Carefully orientated openings provide views to the city, connecting the collection of art and artefacts to a broader cultural context. Daylighting from rooflights designed to exclude harmful UV, floods the galleries, the upper two stories of which are connected by light shafts.

每个公寓都占据塔楼的整层露面，并且在南面，西面，以及朝着海湾以及远处山脉的北面都带有阳台。宽敞的客厅／厨房朝者南面，冬面和北面，有着鸟瞰Nicosia中心城区的壮观视野。而服务空间由深色橡木的中脊包裹着。

Each apartment occupies an entire floor of the tower with balconies facing south, west and, interspersed with bays, north to the mountains. A generous living room/kitchen facing south, east and north provides a spectacular eyrie overlooking central Nicosia and a central spine of dark oak embraces service spaces.

Leventis的设计受到由当地石头建成的塞浦路斯建筑启发，这种传统建筑具有带有百叶的小门，能够在夏天阻挡热浪，而在冬天打开以获得阳光的照射。我们挑战性地使用节点开放式石材防水立面，以便能够与使用带有精致细节以及砂浆节点的传统石材建筑所获得地同质性相呼应。

Leventis is inspired by traditional Cypriot architecture of local stone with small, shuttered openings which exclude the fierce heat in summer but open to allow the winter sun to penetrate.We challenged the prevailing use of thin, open-jointed stone rain screens and set out to echo the homogeneity of the traditional stone buildings with their fine detail and tight mortared joints.

当地的规划政策很大程度上规定了建筑占地和户外空间的面积。这也导致了现有的，由三层美术馆包围着并向街道打开的庭院布局的产生。

Leventis美术馆坐落在Nicosias里十五世纪的Venetian城墙外的，一个在十九世纪的第一波城市化进程时由Kitchener大帝指导建设的区域。与基地相连的城区建成于各不相同的年代——从十九世纪的两层高别墅到二十一世纪的商业塔楼。我们的建筑对两个极端起到了调和作用，并且从材质上愈合了城市，特别是愈合了Leonidou大街的外观和风格上的断裂。

Local planning policies largely dictated the building footprint and the requirement for external space led to the creation of a courtyard embraced by the three storey gallery and open to the street.

The Leventis Gallery is located in a part of Nicosia originally developed under the guidance of Lord Kitchener in the late 19th century in the first wave of urbanisation outside the fifteenth century Venetian city walls. The site is adjoined by neighbours of different generations – from the two storey villas of the nineteenth century to commercial towers of the 21stcentury. Our building mediates between these extremes and heals the disjunction in the grain of the city and in Leonidou Street in particular.

由于为Nicosia历史建筑供应石材的采石场在被占领区域内，因此我们使用了能够容易适应环境巴基斯坦石灰石作为材料。

为了呼应传统的板条式木百叶，开口和阳台都用穿孔金属板进行了遮挡，金属板的定制图案灵感来自William Morris的橄榄叶设计。镀铜铝板（也可用于幕墙和玻璃）在强烈的阳光下几乎和石材具有相同的颜色。当百叶移动以接收或者遮挡阳光时，建筑表面的坚固性便发生改变。

The quarries which supplied the stone for historic Nicosia lie within the occupied territory so we have used Palestinian limestone which sits easily in its context.

Echoing the traditional use of slatted timber shutters, openings and balconies are screened with perforate metal panels, the bespoke patterning of which was inspired by William Morris’s olive leaf design. The bronze anodisedaluminium (also used for curtain walling and glazing)is rendered almost the same colour as the stone in bright light, and as shutters are moved to admit or exclude sun the apparent solidity is transformed.

Leventis美术馆和公寓的设计通过避免多余的日照辐射，改善隔热和气密性，并且尽可能使用自然光线来使建筑能耗最小化。这个带有仔细遮挡开口设计的重量级建筑对能源消耗系统的依赖比许多轻质的，高度使用玻璃的建筑要低得多，但在夏季仍然需要人工降温。建筑是通过浇筑式线圈来利用地热能源的，这样室内就能够依靠线圈提供的背景加热或是制冷保持20摄氏度的恒温。

The Leventis Gallery and apartments are designed to minimise energy use by avoiding potentially harmful solar gains, enhanced insulation and airtightness and use of daylighting wherever feasible. A heavyweight structure with carefully shaded openings will be less reliant on energy hungry systems than many of its lightweight, highly glazed neighbours, but will still require cooling through the summer months. Geothermal energy is harnessed via cast-in coils to provide background heating and cooling with a constant temperature of 20 degrees celsius.
