架构师提供的文本描述。费舍尔和合作伙伴被选中来设计新的科学教育

Text description provided by the architects. Frederick Fisher and Partners was selected to design the new Science Education & Research Facility for the Crossroads School for Arts & Sciences in Santa Monica. As the first new building to be constructed at the school’s main campus in nearly 20 years, the Science Education & Research Facility is 25,000 sf and serves the school’s Upper and Middle School students as their primary science facility. Its location and relationship to the urban campus and freeway create opportunities as both a promotional beacon and destination.

FFP领导了这项设计工作，这是一项社区工作，涉及十字路口的校友、学生、教员、工作人员和行政人员。FFP还与Morley Builders公司密切合作管理这一项目，以便在学校暑假期间施工，以尽量减少对正常学校功能的干扰。该设施包括七间高中科学教室、五间中学科学教室、三间教员预备室、一间学生学习区、一间通风室和一个项目馆，其中包括两个项目教室和一个室外生活实验室。室外走廊和带有板岩黑板的公共露台扩大了教室外的学习环境。在大楼的北面，一个新的广场是一个全校聚会的地方，供人们参加各种活动和娱乐活动。广场的特色是由景观设计师帕梅拉·伯顿(PamelaBurton)设计的一个太阳能钟和一个蝴蝶花园。展馆顶上放着一尊环境艺术家奈德·卡恩(Ned Kahn)的双曲线抛物面雕塑，他创作这件作品是为了在视觉上提醒人们注意风与重力之间隐藏的相互作用。除了满足十字路口严格的可持续性准则外，该设施还配备了内置在玻璃幕墙中的太阳能光伏电池板、可回收的牛仔绝缘材料、LED灯具和充足的自然光。雨水过滤系统，节能管道和屋顶花园。

FFP led the design effort, which was a community effort that involved Crossroads alumni, students, faculty, staff and administrators every step of the way. FFP also worked closely with Morley Builders to manage this project so that construction schedule coincided with the school’s summer break to minimize disturbance of the regular school functions.  The facility includes seven Upper School science classrooms, five Middle School science classrooms, three faculty prep rooms, one student study area, a fume hood room and a Projects Pavilion that features two project classrooms and one outdoor living laboratory. Exterior hallways and public terraces featuring slate blackboards extend the learning environment outside the classrooms. To the north of the building, a new plaza serves as an all-school gathering place for events and recreation. The plaza features a solar clock and a butterfly garden by Landscape Architect Pamela Burton. Atop the Pavilion rests a hyperbolic paraboloid sculpture by esteemed environmental artist Ned Kahn, who created the piece as a visual reminder of the hidden interplay between wind and gravity.  In addition to meeting Crossroads’ strict sustainability guidelines, the facility also features energy-generating photovoltaic panels embedded into the glass curtain wall, recycled denim insulation throughout, LED light fixtures and ample natural light, a storm-water filtration system and energy-efficient plumbing and a roof garden.
