英國·倫敦皇家歌劇院建築

設計 07-31

在一天中的任何時候，皇家歌劇院的建築都應該是一個可以欣賞幕後戲劇中非凡力量的地方；可以在世界上最美麗的歌劇院之一中放鬆的喝咖啡飲料和吃午餐；一個可以觀看藝術家工作的地方；以及一個展示其卓越、戲劇性和好奇心的指導原則的地方。

At all times of the day, the Royal Opera House building should be a place to glimpse the remarkable forces at play behind the scenes; a place to relax and have a coffee, lunch or a drink in the midst of the one of the world』s most beautiful opera houses; a place to see artists at work; and a place to showcase its guiding principles of excellence, theatricality and curiosity.

該設計代表了皇家歌劇院文化變遷的物理表現。作為一個多方面的文化和社會中心，新的一樓公共區域得到了擴展，提供了咖啡館、新商店和非正式的活動/展覽空間。

此外，還有一個從Covent Garden Piazza改建的入口和Bow Street的一個新玻璃入口亭。低層是新的林伯利劇院和相關的門廳，以及學習空間和新的女士衛生間。圓形劇場層面的新餐廳、酒吧和露台為遊客提供了Covent Garden的壯麗景色。

The design represents a physical manifestation of cultural change at the Royal Opera House. Seen as an inclusive and multifaceted cultural and social hub, the new ground floor public areas are expanded, providing a cafe, new shops, and informal event/ exhibition spaces. In addition, there is a remodeled entrance from the Covent Garden Piazza and a new glazed entrance pavilion on Bow Street. At the lower level is the new Linbury Theatre and associated foyer as well as learning spaces and new female toilets. A new restaurant, bar, and terrace at the amphitheatre level give visitors spectacular views over Covent Garden.

作為一個列入遺產名錄和全面運作的建築，在視覺上打開建築周邊的機會構成了一個重大的挑戰。在歷史悠久的Paul Hamlyn Hall下面，新擴建的玻璃建築拔地而起。由於需要對現有的門廳通風系統進行重大的結構改造和重新配置，地下室的開挖創造了一個兩層樓高的空隙。

As a heritage-listed and fully operational building, the opportunities for visually opening up the perimeter of the building posed a significant challenge. A new glazed extension is erected beneath the historic, glazed Paul Hamlyn Hall. Requiring significant structural alterations and reconfiguration of the existing foyer ventilation system, an excavation of the basement beneath creates a double-storey height void.

街道上的玻璃已經詳細參照上面的歷史鐵藝設計。面板擁有與Paul Hamlyn Hall的框架相似的比例，玻璃之間的連接處明顯帶有突出的蓋面。該擴建結構由拉絲不鏽鋼製成，其清晰簡潔的細節和在北端入口使用深色的鍍黃銅來定義。

The glazing at street level has been detailed with reference to the historic ironwork above. Panels possess a similar proportion to the framing on the Paul Hamlyn Hall, and junctions between the glass are pronounced with projected capping. Fabricated from brushed stainless steel, the extension structure is defined by its crisp detailing and the use of a dark patinated brass for the entrance at the northern end.

西面的Covent Garden入口曾被認為是「後門」，現在有超過50%的顧客通過這個門進入該建築，可用的開放空間受到兩個零售單元的限制，上圖是舞台貨運區。為了克服這個問題，Stanton Williams提出了一種新的曲面玻璃屏幕。

這包括一個新的旋轉門和一個大型數字屏幕後面的玻璃入口。新入口設計為坐落在廣場柱廊內，歡迎每年穿過Covent Garden的眾多遊客。

To the west, at the Covent Garden Piazza entrance – once considered the 『back door』 – where over 50% of patrons now enter the building, the available opening is constrained by two retail units and, above, by the stage trucking area. To overcome this, Stanton Williams proposed the introduction of a new curved glass screen. This contains a new revolving door and a large, floor-to-ceiling digital screen behind the glass entrance. The new entrance is designed to sit within the piazza colonnade, welcoming the many visitors who pass through Covent Garden each year.

新門廳——重新設計的Bow Street和廣場入口由一個擴展的門廳連接，該門廳貫穿一樓，向下延伸到Linbury Thearte新的低層門廳。這些門廳由兩層高的空間連接，可以用於即興活動和表演。Stanton Williams通過在ROH重新分配衣帽間和女士衛生間，並重新思考票房如何運作，大大增加了門廳空間。

New foyers – The redesigned Bow Street and piazza entrances are linked by an expanded foyer that flows through the ground floor and down to a new, lower ground floor foyer for the Linbury Theatre. These foyer levels are connected by a double-height space that can be used for impromptu events and performances. Stanton Williams achieved a significant increase in foyer space by redistributing the cloakroom and women』s toilets within the ROH and rethinking how the box office operates.

改進的門廳設施包括一個更大的商店(由Drinkall Dean設計)和一個新的咖啡館，在儘可能的情況下，通過開放空間的視野可以獲得更清晰的視覺效果。主樓梯的重新布置使上層的公共使用更加方便。

Improved foyer facilities include a larger shop (designed by Drinkall Dean) and a new café, with greater legibility achieved by opening up views through space where possible. Relocation of the main staircase enables greater public use of the upper floors throughout the day.

新的Linbury Thearte——這是對現有工作室劇院的替代，提供了更好的舒適性、個性、可訪問性和技術性能，同時保持了一個400個座位的禮堂的親密感。最先進的設施配備了精心製作的美國黑胡桃木與軟墊座椅，還配有可調座椅和電聲技術。

The new Linbury Theatre – This replacement of the existing studio theatre delivers improved comfort, character, accessibility and technical performance whilst maintaining the intimacy of a 400-seat auditorium. Finely crafted in American black walnut with upholstered seating throughout, the state-of-the-art facility is fitted with adjustable seating configurations and electroacoustic technology.

從2018年12月起，除了主樓外，新劇院還將作為皇家芭蕾舞團和皇家歌劇公司的實驗場地，向公眾開放表演。

As well as being used as an experimental space by both The Royal Ballet and Royal Opera companies, the new theatre will be open for public performances in addition to the main house from December 2018.

翻新的圓形劇場和圓形劇場露台—在上層，Stanton Williams開設了圓形劇場大廳，並引入了由Linse工作室設計的新酒吧和230個餐廳，將向公眾開放，而不僅僅是表演觀眾。

Refurbished Amphitheatre and Amphitheatre Terrace – On the upper floor, Stanton Williams has opened up the Amphitheatre foyer and introduced a new bar and 230-cover restaurant designed by Studio Linse which will be open to the public rather than just performance-goers.

圓形劇場露台部分被新的滑動玻璃和屋頂燈包圍，形成一個全年可用的新玻璃溫室。除了可以看到廣場外，露台現在還可以讓更多的人看到一些後台區域，包括服裝部。

The Amphitheatre Terrace has been partially enclosed with new sliding glazing and roof lights to form a new glass conservatory usable all year round. As well as providing views of the piazza, the terrace now offers tantalising glimpses into a number of back-of-house areas including the costume department to a wider public.
