阿默斯特学院学生中心与公共餐厅，美国 / Herzog & de Meuron
阿默斯特学院长期致力于卓越的学术教育和学生的全面发展。新建的学生中心与公共餐厅通过培育社群归属感，并尽可能创造增进身心健康的机会，提升学生的校园体验。建筑位于地势较高的历史校园方院与下方新绿道的交汇处，将成为阿默斯特学院的核心：学生既可在往返课堂的途中短暂停留，也可在此相聚，建立对个人成长至关重要的社会联系。建筑内的全部空间由一处“交汇点”串联起来。这一纵横交织的共享空间网络连接着上方的方院与下方的绿道、学生中心与餐饮空间，以及校园的新与旧。
Amherst College has long been recognized for its commitment to academic excellence and the holistic development of its students. The new Student Center & Dining Commons is designed to enhance the student experience by fostering a sense of community and maximizing opportunities to improve well-being. Strategically located at the intersection of the elevated historic quad and lower new greenway, the building will become the heart of Amherst – a place where students can take a short break while commuting between classes, as well as a destination for gathering and developing the social bonds crucial for an individual’s development. All spaces in the new building are connected by a crossroads, a vertical and horizontal network of shared spaces linking the upper quad to the lower greenway, student center to dining, and old to new.

可持续的设计路径
A Sustainable Approach
学生中心与公共餐厅体现了阿默斯特学院对可持续发展的承诺，也是学院实现2030年气候中和目标的重要一步。项目纳入了原梅里尔科学中心的既有混凝土结构；通过重新利用下部两层的混凝土结构，设计有效减少了材料浪费，并保留了既有材料中已投入的隐含碳。
▼既有混凝土与新增木结构分析，Existing concrete and new timber structure
Reflecting Amherst’s dedication to sustainability, the Student Center & Dining Commons is an important step towards the College’s goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2030. The project incorporates the existing concrete structure of the former Merrill Science Center; by repurposing the concrete structure of the lower two levels, the project effectively reduces material waste while preserving embodied carbon.
▼保留的混凝土结构与楼梯，Retained concrete structure and staircase
既有结构之上新增的两层采用工程木材建造，具体选用了产自加拿大、以低碳足迹著称的黑云杉。新增木结构逐层退台，在最上层形成尺度较小、如同亭阁的建筑体量，回应既有校园的尺度。宽大的挑檐提供充足遮阴，减少能源消耗；屋顶太阳能板则在场地内生产可再生能源。
On top of the existing structure, two new floors are constructed using mass-timber, specifically black spruce sourced from Canada which is known for its low carbon footprint. The new timber structure steps back to offer smaller scale, pavilion-like buildings on the top level in response to the scale of the existing campus. Large overhangs provide ample shade to reduce energy consumption while solar panels on the roof generate renewable energy on site.

学生的空间体验
The Student Experience
学生可从绿道进入建筑首层，也可从方院进入三层。一条内部通道连接两个入口和所有楼层。从方院走近建筑，迎接访客的是一个开放而亲切的室内大厅，配有大窗和露台。主休息厅结合宽阔的楼梯，提供非正式坐席与社交互动的机会。
Students enter the building on the ground floor from the greenway and the third floor from the quad. An internal passage links the two entries and all levels together. Approaching from the Quad, visitors are welcomed by an open and inviting interior hall, featuring large windows and a terrace. The main lounge incorporates a large stair, providing informal seating and opportunities for social interaction.

建筑的每一层都服务于学生体验的不同方面。首层设有校友酒吧、广播站和音乐练习室，以及向室外露台开放的灵活活动与宴会空间。二层是餐饮活动的核心，宽敞的开放式就餐区俯瞰绿道，多个供餐区提供丰富而健康的饮食选择，另设有供活动与学生聚会使用的多功能室。
Each level of the building is designed to support different aspects of the student experience. The ground floor houses the Alumni Pub, radio station, and music practice rooms, alongside flexible event and banquet spaces that open to outdoor terraces. The second floor serves as the heart of dining with an expansive open seating area overlooking the greenway, multiple serveries to provide varied and healthy food options, and a multipurpose room for events and student gatherings.

三层引入了更亲密、更具互动性的空间，包括咖啡厅、游戏区、文化资源中心，以及将绿意带入建筑核心的冬季花园。建筑顶部的四层为创造、思考与身心健康提供空间，包括剧场、跨宗教聚会空间，以及适合安静独处或小组交流的休息室。
The third floor introduces more intimate and interactive spaces, including a café, game area, cultural resource centers, and a winter garden, which brings greenery into the building’s core. At the top of the building, the fourth floor offers spaces for creativity, reflection, and well-being, including a theater, interfaith gathering spaces, and lounges designed for quiet retreat or small group interactions.

与户外环境相融
Integration of the Outdoors
贯穿建筑的自然光、经过框定的景观视野，以及天然材料的运用，强化了室内与景观的联系，同时改善空间体验和使用者的身心感受。分布于多个楼层的室外露台延伸了社交空间，也为放松与冥想提供场所，并可远眺附近的霍利奥克山脉。通过整合这些要素，设计营造出连贯的体验，使学生中心与公共餐厅成为阿默斯特学院日常生活不可或缺的一部分。
Throughout the building, natural light, framed views, and the use of natural materials reinforce a connection to the landscape, enhancing both the experience of the space and the well-being of its occupants. Outdoor terraces, positioned at multiple levels, extend social spaces while providing areas for relaxation and meditation and offer views over the nearby Holyoke range. By integrating these elements, the design supports a cohesive experience, making the Student Center & Dining Commons an essential part of daily life at Amherst College.
