West Hall 音乐厅丨英国伦敦丨SPPARC

West Hall是SPPARC在奥林匹亚主持设计的第一座完成的新建筑，它的开放将成为西伦敦斥资13亿英镑的娱乐和展览目的地再开发工程的主要里程碑。

West Hall, the first new building at Olympia designed by lead project architects, SPPARC, will reopen this week in a major milestone for the £1.3 billion redevelopment of West London’s iconic entertainment and exhibition destination.

“伦敦是世界上最多变的城市之一，拥有出色的文化、学习、生活、工作、休闲和旅行资源。奥林匹亚项目的核心是增加新的艺术和社区体验，保证奥林匹亚作为一个全年无休的目的地，展现英国最好的创意社区。”——SPPARC主创建筑师Trevor Morriss

“London is one of the world’s most dynamic cities, with outstanding cultural, study, live, work, leisure and travel opportunities. Central to the Olympia brief is the addition of new experiences that are arts and community-led, ensuring that Olympia is a year-round destination that will showcase the best of Britain’s creative communities.” ——Trevor Morriss, Principal, SPPARC

新的West Hall由SPPARC为YOO Capital和DFI设计建造，包含两个宽敞的新楼层和灵活的展览空间，立面由通高玻璃幕墙覆盖。这是奥林匹亚再开发工程开始以来第一个完成更新、重新开放运营的项目。

Designed and delivered by SPPARC for YOO Capital and Deutsche Finance International (DFI), the revived West Hall features two new floors of large scale format, flexible exhibition space, with a new full height glazed facade. West Hall is the first newly renovated space at Olympia to reopen to operations since the development began.

由国际现场演出娱乐公司AEG Present管理的可容纳4400人的音乐场馆目前正在施工，空间的25%由超级钢结构支撑。新的音乐厅将额外获得5600平米的大尺度多功能音乐空间，计划于2024年和更大范围的奥林匹亚项目同步开放。

An adjoining 4,400 person-capacity music venue, to be managed by global live entertainment company AEG Presents, is currently under construction on site with 25 percent of the steel superstructure erected. The new music venue adds over 5600 square metres of large scale format, flexible music space to West Hall, and is set to open in 2024 in line with the wider Olympia programme.

设计让展览空间和音乐厅可以分开独立运营，仅有一座货梯为二者共用。两个空间均采用隔音设计，使得音乐厅可以随时举办音乐演出，不会对相邻场馆的展览活动造成影响。

The exhibition space and music venue have been designed to function independently of each other, sharing only the use of a service lift. The two spaces are designed with acoustic insulation to allow the music auditorium freedom from the constraints of neighbouring exhibition timelines.

“这座新的多功能设施将奥林匹亚作为世界知名表演和活动场所的旗舰地位，并为其增加属于自己的特色。SPPARC很荣幸能够负责这样一个城市塑造项目的设计和施工。” ——SPPARC主创建筑师Trevor Morriss

“This new multi-functionality will ensure that Olympia retains the flagship programme of world-famous shows and events it is known for, while becoming a destination in its own right. We at SPPARC are proud to be leading the design and delivery of such a city-shaping project.” ——Trevor Morriss, Principal, SPPARC

AEG音乐厅覆盖两个宽敞的开放楼层，人们可以通过West Hall二层架空的公共空间进入。平面设计上，SPPARC将核心筒缩减到最小，创造了长长的连续立面，为新的声学材料留下空间。

The AEG music venue is arranged over two large format open plan levels accessed from the new elevated public realm zone on the second level of West Hall. SPPARC have designed the layout to minimise the overall core, creating long uninterrupted and continuous facades to allow space for innovating acoustic materials.

West Hall建造于1890年，最早被用作马厩，现被列为二级保护的国家大厅。建筑的外立面被特意设计为由两种截然不同的元素组成。砖制基座在视觉上与原本的马厩建筑建立联系，上层采用更轻的材料。石墙上方曾经的轻质玻璃幕墙系统被新的三角图案铜色雨幕替代，呼应了大厅西侧的开窗。

West Hall, built in 1890 next and attached to the Grade-II listed Grand and National Halls, was originally used as a stable. The exterior has been purposefully designed to have two distinct elements – a brick base to create a visual relationship with the original stable building, matched with lighter weight upper levels. Above the retained masonry wall of the original stable building, the existing lightweight glazing system will be replaced with a new bronze colored rainscreen in an angled pattern influenced by the west window of the Grand Hall.

“奥林匹亚不仅是一个展览和活动的目的地，它还将成为伦敦的新地标，连接历史建筑、创新空间和独特的体验，提供精品酒店、共享办公、饮食区和餐厅、电影院、现场表演场馆、开放绿地等设施，同时保留并强化场所知名的充满灵感的活动。” ——SPPARC主创建筑师Trevor Morriss

“More than an exhibition and events destination, Olympia will be a London landmark combining heritage, innovation, bespoke experiences, offering boutique hotels, co-working space, food halls and restaurants, cinemas, live entertainment, open green space, whilst maintaining and enhancing a renowned programme of inspirational events. ” ——Trevor Morriss, Principal, SPPARC

奥林匹亚是SPPARC的代表项目之一，公司负责了项目的总体规划，并完成了部分建筑的设计和建造。它们是伦敦最令人激动的再开发项目，包含MARK的Borough Yards，位于历史悠久的Borough市场边；以及Southworks，最近刚刚获得了英国首个智慧建筑白金认证。

Olympia is one in a line of prominent projects for SPPARC who are leading the masterplanning, architectural design and delivery of some of London’s most exciting redevelopments including MARK’s Borough Yards next to the historic Borough Market, and Southworks, which was recently awarded the UK’s first Platinum rating by the Smart Building Certification.
