今年7月，PES-Architects参加了由越南永隆省人民委员会、越南建筑师协会等主办的湄公河三角洲农业博物馆规划理念和建筑方案竞赛。组委会收到50份报名参赛申请，邀请了10家单位参加第二轮比赛。近日，组委会公布了竞赛结果，本次比赛不设一等奖，PES Architects Ltd和越南当地设计公司NVD and Partners组成的联合体脱颖而出，获得了二等奖的最高荣誉。

 

 

PES越南湄公河三角洲农业博物馆规划理念和建筑方案设计理念

 

农业博物馆项目旨在成为湄公河三角洲地区的文化驱动和地标建筑，弘扬该地区千年的农业史。除了博物馆功能，该项目还将作为当地的文化客厅，设置文化教育、研讨会、展览和咖啡馆，吸引广大观众。这座 15,000 平方米的建筑被设计成一个灵活的当代文化和博物馆中心，设计永恒、便利，能够满足各种用途和各类用户的需要。

 

博物馆的设计灵感来自湄公河三角洲地区的景观和地形。该设计呼应永隆当地的本土建筑以及手工艺传统。编织的主题对设计产生了很大的影响。它以美丽的当地景观生态系统为基础，俯瞰时，它就像一张由不同的农作物和材料编织而成的地毯——设计也深深植根于传统和文化中。博物馆项目分为几个不同的展馆，使其规模和外观更加人性化，与该地区的乡土建筑相得益彰。这些展馆似村庄般散落在景观中，形成室内和室外空间的矩阵，与周围景观的编织特质相似。

 

 

建筑的愿景是服务于当地特色，并增强和加强乡村环境的品质。为了实现这一愿景，设计将博物馆建筑精心地置于丰富而精致的环境中，以景观环绕博物馆，并将展览空间和周围田地之间的屏障最小化，让这些生机勃勃的田地与园艺环绕博物馆，并融入其中。

 

 

山墙式屋顶代表了乡村和农舍的典型形象和主题。设计向简单质朴致敬，并将其转化为现代而实用的建筑作品。村庄式的空间布局使得采用单层解决方案成为可能，目的是增强博物馆空间与周围花园的紧密关系。景观那如地毯般的表面和折叠屋顶之间的空间便构成了博物馆。

 

 

博物馆可以大致描述为由七个元素组成：

1. 水——我们重建了一系列运河，将水体与博物馆空间连接起来。

2. 毯——田野和花园环绕并渗透到博物馆空间中。

3. 桥——在功能性和趣味性上连接起内部与外部。

4. 庭——创造了休息、宁静、属于私人的片刻。

5. 墙——巨大的墙体结构引导穿过博物馆空间，并提供结构和技术支撑。将框架视图切入景观。

6. 玻璃表面——景观受邀映入博物馆内，室内和室外空间之间的屏障被落地高玻璃表面打破。

7. 屋顶——这一主要建筑元素体现了建筑给与人们保护的功能。

 

 

展览室的布置形成了多样化的展览路线，始终靠近植被层，靠近展览内容，就好像围绕和渗透进建筑的景观才是真正的展览，而展品则讲述了其培育故事，体现了项目座右铭“顺天（Thuan Thien）——与自然和谐相处”的精神。

 

 

我们设想博物馆花园的培育和水道的维护应完全由当地社区负责。这座博物馆应该成为一个让当地文化积极生动地与游客见面的地方。

 

技术解决方案同样与当地环境息息相关；屋顶和墙壁将遮挡阳光，而不会干扰室内外之间重要的空间连接，形成被动节能元素。大型玻璃表面的主要功能是框住建筑物周围的景观，同时提供宝贵的日光，也有助于节能理念。同时，建筑确保不会有直射的日光进入博物馆空间造成干扰。

 

 

博物馆空间将采用机械冷却，结合自然和经济的冷却方法；种植园和水道将在建筑物周围形成凉爽区域，提供宜人的户外区域，也是新鲜空气预冷的完美来源。巨大的砖墙将作为冷却能量储存体，使用无能源夜间冷却技术有助于预冷进气，并将冷却能量自然地辐射到博物馆空间中。此外，我们建议使用地热和/或河水增强冷却系统，以进一步减少能源和二氧化碳排放量。

 

该提案的设计与自然和文化相呼应，但也计划在功能上连接两个重要的“邻居”，即南部的（Nam Ku Khoi Nghia）公园和东部的纪念馆。我们相信，博物馆将成为社区的好邻居，并在永隆市中心形成一个引人入胜、令人愉悦的活动中心与文化灯塔。

 

该项目展示了 PES-Architects 对创建与周围环境和谐共存的建筑的持续兴趣。重新发觉特定环境中的自然本土材料和解决方案，受这一想法的驱动，我们将它们重新引入当代建筑——在过去和现在之间架起一座桥梁。我们希望这座建筑及其文化内容能够照亮日常生活，为永隆人民带来欢乐。

PES Won Mekong Delta Agricultural Museum Competition

 

PES-Architects participated in the competition of Planning Concept and Architectural Design of the Mekong Delta Agricultural Museum this July. The competition was held by Vietnamese officials including the People's Committee of Vinh Long Province and the Vietnam Association of Architects. The organizing committee received 50 applications for the competition and invited 10 organizations to proceed to the second round of the competition. Recently, the organizing committee announced the results of the competition. No first prize was awarded, while PES Architects Ltd and the local Vietnamese design company NVD and Partners stood out and won the highest honor of the second prize.

 

Design concept of the Mekong Delta Agricultural Museum

 

The design for the Mekong Delta Agricultural Museum in Vinh Long aims to function as a cultural driver and landmark building in the Mekong Delta area, promoting the thousand-year history of agriculture in the region. In addition to its museum functions, the complex will operate as a local cultural living room, attracting a broad audience through cultural education, seminars, exhibitions and cafés. The 15,000 m2 building is designed as a flexible, contemporary culture and museum centre that is timeless, easily accessible and allows for a variety of uses. The museum’s design is inspired by the agricultural landscapes and terrain of the Mekong Delta area, while also paying homage to the vernacular architecture and handcraft tradition in Vinh Long. The theme of weaving runs throughout the design, reflecting the local ecosystem of landscapes which, when viewed from above, appears as a woven carpet assembled out of different crops and materials, deeply rooted in tradition and culture.

 

The museum’s design is inspired by the landscapes and terrain of the Mekong Delta area. The design finds resonance from the vernacular architecture as well as the handcraft tradition in Vinh Long. The theme of weaving heavily influenced the design. It is based on the beautiful local ecosystem of landscapes which, when viewed from above, appear like a woven carpet, assembled out of different crops, different materials – but deeply rooted in tradition and culture. The museum program is divided into several different pavilions, allowing for a more human scale and appearance that find its pair from the vernacular architecture in the area. These pavilions are placed in the landscape in a village-like arrangement, creating a matrix of indoor and exterior spaces, similar to the weaving quality of the landscape.

 

The architectural vision is to serve this local identity and to enhance and strengthen the qualities of a rural environment, by placing the museum building carefully into this rich and delicate context, by surrounding the museum with these very landscapes, by creating a minimal threshold between the exhibition spaces and the actively farmed fields and gardens surrounding and infiltrating the museum.

 

The gabled roof represents a universal rural and farm-house image The design pays homage to this simplicity and translates it into a contemporary and functional piece of architecture. The village-like arrangement of spaces also allows for a single story solution, which is intended to enhance the close relationship of the museum spaces to the surrounding gardens. The museum becomes the literal space in between the landscape carpet and the folded roofs.

 

The museum generally can be described as a composition of seven elements:

1. The water.  We reestablished an array of canals, linking the water body to the museum spaces.

2. The carpet. Fields and gardens surround and infiltrate the museum spaces.

3. The bridges.  Exteriors and Interiors are connected functionally and playfully.

4. The courtyards are creating moments of rest, of quietness and privacy.

5. The walls. Massive wall structures are guiding through the museum spaces and are providing a structural and technical backbone.  Cuts frame views into the landscapes

6. Glass surfaces.   The landscapes are invited into the museum, and the threshold between interior and exteriors spaces is broken by floor to ceiling high glass surfaces.

7. The roof.  This main architectural element provides the image of the building being the functionally protective element.

 

The exhibition rooms are arranged forming a diverse exhibition route, always near the vegetation level, close to the exhibition substance, almost as if the real exhibition is the landscape surrounding and infiltrating our building, and the exhibits are telling the story of its cultivation, in the spirit of the project motto ”Thuan Thien” – “harmony with nature”.

 

We imagine that the maintenance and cultivation of the museum gardens and water channels should remain fully in the hands of the local community.  This museum should become a place where local culture is meeting the visitors actively and lively.

 

The technical solutions are equally connected to the local context; the roofs and walls will block the sun without disturbing the important spatial connections between the interior and the exterior forming a passive energy saving element. The large glass surfaces who’s primary function is to frame the landscapes surrounding the building, at the same time provide for valuable daylight, also contribute to the energy saving concept. At the same, the architecture ensures that no direct daylight will enter the museum spaces disturbingly.

 

The museum spaces will be cooled mechanically, in combination with natural and inexpensive cooling methods; the plantation and water channels will create cool zones around the building, which will provide pleasant outdoor areas, but are also a perfect source for pre-cooled fresh air intake. The massive brick walls will function as cooling energy storage masses, using energy free night time cooling technology to contribute to pre-cooling the intake air, and to radiate cooling energy naturally into the museum spaces. Additionally, we propose to use geothermal and/or river water enhanced cooling systems to further cut the energy and CO² footprint.

 

The proposal is designed in dialogue with nature and culture, but also planned to functionally connect two important neighbors, the (Nam Ku Khoi Nghia) Park in the south and the memorial in the east. We believe that the museum will become a good neighbor in the community, and form an inviting and welcoming beacon of activity and culture in the heart of Vinh Long.

 

This project demonstrates PES-Architects’ ongoing interest for the creation of buildings that exist in harmony with their surroundings. We are driven by the idea of rediscovery of natural vernacular materials and solutions specific to the context, and their reintroduction to the contemporary construction – creating a bridge between the past and the present. We hope that the building, together with its cultural content, will enlighten the everyday and bring joy to the people of Vinh Long for decades to come.
