苏州科技馆丨中国苏州丨Perkins&Will

作为狮山广场文化集群压轴启幕的收官之作，这座公众期待已久的科技馆，彰显了苏州文脉昌炽和匠心制造的城市底蕴。建筑与景观在此和谐共生，生动诠释自然与科技的共生之境。万众瞩目之下，苏州又添一处重磅文化地标——由全球知名建筑事务所Perkins&Will打造的苏州科技馆，作为高新区的文化新引擎，致力于弘扬探索精神与创新力量。

SUZHOU, China—One of China’s most anticipated cultural destinations has opened its doors to the public. The Suzhou Science and Technology Museum, designed by global firm Perkins&Will, is a new civic landmark in the city’s High-Tech District that celebrates discovery and innovation. The third and final component of a new cultural district, the museum reflects Suzhou’s status as a hub of intellectual inquiry and manufacturing. Architecture and landscape come together in a harmonious design that highlights the relationship between nature and technology.

苏州素有园林之城与丝绸之乡的美誉，自古便是文化、匠心与山水的交融之地。苏州科技馆通过其富于想象力的设计致敬这一历史文脉——建筑宛若一条流动的丝带，自滨水绿意中自然生长绵延。

Suzhou, known internationally for its UNESCO-listed classical gardens and centuries-old silk tradition, has long intertwined culture, craft, and landscape. The museum honors this legacy through its evocative design, which conjures a flowing silk ribbon emerging organically from its verdant waterfront landscape.

“在这里，科学与自然不再彼此分隔，而是在同一空间语境中被共同感知与体验，”Perkins&Will设计总监Ralph Johnson 表示，他主持该项目的最初构思并领衔跨学科团队。“这座博物馆以‘共生’为核心命题——历史与未来，自然与科技，城市与景观，在此共生。”

“Science and nature are not separate here; they are meant to be experienced together,” says Perkins&Will design director Ralph Johnson, who conceived the original design concept and led the project’s multidisciplinary team. “The museum is about harmony: between past and future, nature and technology, and the city and its landscape.”

承载苏州城市与文化精神的超级平台

A civic and cultural super platform for Suzhou

苏州科技馆坐落于狮子山脚下，是苏州市旧游乐园改造为多元文化景观区的重要举措之一。该馆与苏州博物馆西馆、苏州狮山大剧院同期统筹规划，共同构成更广泛的狮山片区文化格局。通过连续的公共空间与步行网络，科技馆与周边文化设施共享山水资源。

Located at the base of Shishan, or Lion Mountain, the museum supports a city-led redevelopment of a former amusement park into a multi-venue cultural landscape. Planned alongside the Suzhou Museum West and the Suzhou Lion Mountain Grand Theatre, and part of the broader Shishan district, the Suzhou Science and Technology Museum shares public space, pedestrian connections, and access to the mountain and water with its neighboring cultural destinations.

“苏州科技馆以‘玉如意’为灵感的建筑形态，将苏州传统文化的温润雅致与科技馆的未来感完美融合，”苏州科技馆运营管理有限公司总经理（苏州科技馆副馆长）朱小银表示，“既体现了对本土文化的深刻理解，也展现了国际顶尖设计的前瞻视野。”

“The architectural form of the Suzhou Science and Technology Museum, inspired by the ‘jade ruyi’, seamlessly blends the refined elegance of Suzhou’s traditional culture with the futuristic vibe of a science museum,” says Zhu Xiaoyin, General Manager of Suzhou Science and Technology Museum Operation Management Co., Ltd. (Deputy Director of Suzhou Science and Technology Museum). “It reflects a profound understanding of local heritage while showcasing the forward-looking vision of internationally leading design.”

如丝般流动的建筑 Architecture that moves like silk

建筑设计灵感源自苏州悠久的丝绸生产历史。科技馆优雅地顺应湖岸曲线，从场地中缓缓升起并回旋成型，宛若一条丝带在空中舒展飘动。建筑由超大尺度的“蘑菇柱”支撑，主体仿佛漂浮于林荫覆盖的公共空间之上，使人们能够在水岸、花园与步道之间恣意穿行。建筑围合出一方下沉庭院，多个生态绿岛与倒影池交融其间。悬臂以如虹之势探向狮山，在视觉上将建筑与自然紧密相连。▼草图，sketches© Perkins&Will

The design is inspired by Suzhou’s history of silk production. The museum gracefully traces the lake’s edge, rises from the landscape, and folds back on itself like a silk sash. Supported by oversized mushroom columns, the building hovers above shaded public space, allowing visitors to move freely between water, gardens, and pathways, and surrounds a sunken courtyard of additional gardens and reflective pools. It then extends outward in a dramatic cantilever toward Lion Mountain, visually linking the building to its natural setting.

“丝绸兼具传统与创新的双重属性——它源于自然，经由技术锤炼，最终富于表现力。”Perkins&Will亚洲区域总监James Lu表示，“Ralph及其团队在立面设计中延续了这一手法，通过精密的编织幕墙，既在城市尺度上展现建筑宏大的公共形象，又在近人尺度上表达丝绸的精致和细节。”

“Silk is both ancient and advanced: It’s natural, engineered, and expressive,” says James Lu, Perkins&Will’s regional director for Asia. “Ralph and the team treated the facade the same way, designing an intricate woven system that performs at a civic scale while still feeling refined at a human scale.”

立面系统采用定制化编织铝板，以纵横交错的肌理排列，层叠流转，如丝线经纬交织。高性能喷涂赋予铝板柔和的光泽，夜幕降临，嵌于幕墙中的LED灯为建筑披上一层若隐若现的光晕。

A custom cladding system of convex aluminum panels repeats in a crisscross pattern, appearing to flow beneath one another, lending it a visual quality similar to woven fabric. A high-performance coating produces a soft, shimmering finish, and LEDs embedded within the cladding give the building a subtle glow after dark.

“这座科技馆体现了苏州在国家层面的科技领先地位，并显化为开放、包容且面向未来的公共空间形态。”Perkins&Will全球公共文化建筑业务负责人Zena Howard说道，“它生动展现了一座城市应如何通过文化机构来彰显自身的价值取向与发展雄心。”

“This museum reflects Suzhou’s national leadership in science and technology, translated into an open, inclusive, and forward-looking civic setting,” says Zena Howard, Perkins&Will’s firmwide cultural and civic practice leader. “It’s a must-see example of how a city can express its values and ambitions through its cultural institutions.”

亦馆亦园

A museum that’s also a landscape

狮山蜿蜒而下的步道，与科技馆绿意盎然的屋顶花园自然衔接，屋顶曲折绵延的路径呼应着公园的柔美曲线。随着屋面的缓慢抬升，景观悄然从植被过渡至光伏板阵列，呈现从自然生态向技术创新的空间转换。▼分析图，analysis diagram© Perkins&Will

Visitors descending from Lion Mountain can step directly onto the museum’s fully planted roof, where curving paths mirror the park below. As the roof rises, the landscape gradually shifts from planting beds to photovoltaic panels, expressing a transition from natural systems to technological innovation.

在地面层，雨水花园在场地径流汇入湖泊前进行收集与过滤；树木与植被构建起与周边道路及交通枢纽间的生态缓冲带。科技馆内部采用连续的环形流线组织展陈，借助自然光与向外延展的通透视野，引领访客徜徉于展厅之中。大量功能空间被置于地下景观之中，借助土壤的热稳定性优化建筑的环境性能，同时保持整体形象的开放与通透。

At ground level, rain gardens capture and filter stormwater before it reaches the lake, while trees and plantings buffer the site from surrounding roads and transit connections. Inside, the museum is organized as a continuous loop that guides visitors through exhibitions using daylight and long views outward. Much of the program is set within the landscape itself, using the earth’s thermal stability to support environmental performance while keeping the building visually open.

访客的科技之旅，最终定格在一览狮山胜景的观景平台。在此，科技馆、狮山广场与苏州城之间的空间脉络都将尽收眼底。“在这里，科学不再高墙深锁。它如丝绸般飘逸，流转于苏州这座千年古城。” Ralph总结道。

The visitor journey concludes at an observation platform overlooking Lion Mountain, where the relationship between the museum, the park, and the city comes fully into view. “Here, science doesn’t sit behind walls. It flows—like silk—through the city,” Johnson says.
