建筑联盟学院(AA)、新兴技术与设计(EmTech)的研究生项目和伦敦的 Hassell 事务所一起合作在贝德福德广场建造了一个新的临时装置艺术。建筑联盟学院的 EmTech 研究生课程在设计和建造建筑和装置艺术方面有着悠久的历史。今年的装置艺术名为 Re-Emerge，这是自疫情爆发以来，学生们第一次可以紧密合作，制造和组装一个完整、全尺寸的结构。在这次合作中，Hassell 事务所向学生们提出了挑战，要求他们将项目的碳足迹保持在绝对最低水平，因此该项目将只使用再生木材。

Architectural Association (AA) Emergent Technologies & Design (EmTech) Post-Graduate Programme and Hassell in London collaborated to create a new pavilion in Bedford Square. EmTech Post-Graduate Programme at the Architectural Association has a long history in designing and creating structures and pavilions. This year’s pavilion is titled Re-Emerge and is the first time since the pandemic that the students could closely work together, fabricate and assemble a full-scale structure. For this collaboration, Hassell gave the students the challenge to keep the carbon footprint of the project to an absolute minimum and therefore only use reclaimed timber.

Hassell 事务所的负责人泽维尔·德·凯斯特利耶(Xavier De Kestelier)说：“学生们真的用全盘接受了我们的挑战，并很早就决定用重新回收的木托盘的木材来建造这个装置艺术。”Re-Emerge 这一装置艺术探索了新的设计以及新的施工技术，将已经完成第一个生命周期的材料重新用于创新的结构形式。该项目涉及生成性设计、材料计算、大规模制造和组装技术等主题，强调装置艺术从设计过程早期阶段所产生的的生态影响。Re-Emerge 复兴了在贝德福德广场进行建造的传统，这是 AA 的学术项目之一，与来自实践界的合作伙伴之间合作，以实地检验的想法的可行性并畅想新的可能性。

Xavier De Kestelier, Head of Design at Hassell said: “The students really took on the challenge with both hands and decided early on to build the pavilion out of timber from reclaimed wooden pallets.” The Re-Emerge pavilion explored new design and construction technologies that repurpose materials which have completed their first life cycle towards innovative structural formations. The project addressed themes of generative design, material computation, large-scale fabrication and assembly technologies, emphasising the pavilion’s ecological impact from the early phases of the design process onwards. Re-emerge revived the tradition of building on Bedford Square as a collaboration between an academic programme at the AA and partners from the world of practice, to test ideas at scale and imagine new possibilities.

EmTech 项目主任 Elif Erdine 博士说：“与 Hassell 事务所的合作成功地展示了学术界和实践界如何结合在一起，为复杂的空间构成和材料问题找到新的解决方案。在我们其他赞助商 BuroHappold Engineering 和 One Click LCA 的支持下，EmTech 和 Hassell 探索了重新利用木材的新设计和施工技术。”她补充说：“作为设计师、建筑师和工程师，我们都有责任在设计和建造时保持对环境的关注。我们对建筑垃圾如何成为一种有用资源的共同洞察力，促使我们发起了这项研究，将木材重新用于轻质的户外建筑，同时也强调了该项目在设计过程的早期阶段对生态的影响。”

Dr. Elif Erdine, Director of the EmTech Program said: “This collaboration with Hassell demonstrates a successful illustration of how academia and practice can come together to discover novel solutions to complex spatial and material problems. With the support of our other sponsors, BuroHappold Engineering and One Click LCA, EmTech and Hassell explored new design and construction technologies for repurposing timber.”She added: “As designers, architects, and engineers, we share the responsibility to maintain a mindful approach towards our environment while designing and building. Our mutual insight into how construction waste can be a useful resource has originated this research into repurposing timber for an outdoor structure that is lightweight, emphasising the project’s ecological impact from the early phases of the design process.”

建筑垃圾是可用的。Construction waste is useful.木材天生就是最好的生态友好制造和可降解材料；它是可再生的、可迅速恢复的，并且经久耐用。当一座木制建筑在几十年后被拆除时，它不会产生无用的垃圾，而是会产生回收的木材，拆卸后可以再利用和重新利用，从而成为循环体系的一部分。Re-Emerge 是用重新回收的 A 级木托盘制造的，这是 AEC 行业中最丰富的可再利用木材之一。可回收的木托盘通常最终会被填埋或作为燃料焚烧。取而代之的是，它们的结构和形态能力在 Re-Emerge 项目中被探索和利用。该项目中的回收托盘是从伦敦内外的各种木材回收设施收集的。

Wood is inherently the best bio-fabricated and biodegradable material; it is renewable, resilient, and lasts for a long time. When a timber building is demolished after several decades, it does not produce useless waste, but instead generates reclaimed wood that can be re-used and re-purposed in other applications after disassembly, hence becoming part of the circular economy. Re-Emerge was created with grade A reclaimed wood pallets, one of the most abundant re-used timber elements in the AEC industry. Reclaimed timber pallets generally end up in landfill or burnt as fuel. Instead, their structural and morphological capacities were explored and exploited in Re-Emerge. Reclaimed pallets were collected from various timber recycling facilities in and outside London.
