巴黎为了响应今年的芝加哥建筑双年展——“新历史”的主题，由芝加哥建筑俱乐部启动了2017年Burnham Prize竞赛：穹顶之下。新历史从来都不是从多变的风格走向流行的，但是他对于我们过去的历史又是至关重要的，并反映在建筑上反映着其内涵和也影射未来居民及其生活方式。这场比赛使用了圆顶的历史和类型结构，并呼吁在“新历史”的背景下进行批判性的再想象。

历史上，圆顶的作用是通过其独特的形式来代表社会的统一愿望和环境。万神殿作为一个聚集的空间来崇拜罗马神；圆顶天文馆模拟天空。Buckminster Fuller的圆顶激发了对建筑封闭环境的兴趣。尼迈耶的穹顶鼓励了民主代表团加强政治基础设施。整个时期，圆顶不仅演化和扩展，而且也是建筑的结构构造。这种独特的形式在数百年来一直保持着相关性，由混凝土、石材、木材、金属和充气材料制成。无论功能内容或材料结构，圆顶都是富有经验的空间，通过创建单个体积水平和垂直的径向空间来激发情感。

今年芝加哥文化中心将作为芝加哥建筑双年展第二届的主要场地。该中心以前是公共图书馆，由Shepley Rutan和Coolidge于1897年设计。在建筑物内，修复了最受尊敬的蒂凡尼穹顶，每年吸引数百万游客欣赏这美丽的建筑，在圆顶下还可以举办许多活动。

与蒂芬尼圆顶相比，距离不到10英里的地方就是由Coolidge和Hodgdon设计的圣斯蒂芬教堂的圆顶。今年是圆顶大教堂建成一百周年，早期它是作为基督科学家第十届教会和圣史蒂芬教堂长达80年，但在过去二十年中该建筑及其圆顶已被放弃。今年的Burnham Prize竞赛质疑圣史蒂芬的圆顶是否能通过创造性地重新思考，穹顶同时代的废墟和以不再使用的状态来书写新的历史。


参赛提要

芝加哥建筑俱乐部在圣史蒂芬教堂百年诞辰之际，正在寻求“穹顶之下”的建议。

圣史蒂芬教堂老化的圆顶被视为回顾当代社会中圆顶的地位，并展示其未来历史的机会。我们正在征求建议和建筑干预措施，重新评估圆顶的重要性和相关性。编程或构造实验的新策略为圆顶提供了新的前景吗？历史与新用途的碰撞如何能创造出难以想象的本源？

Paris In response to this year’s Chicago Architecture Biennial prompting Make New History, the Chicago Architectural Club is pleased to announce the 2017 Burnham Prize Competition: Under the Dome. New History is made not from a position of sentimentality toward style, but rather it must be critical of our past and used to inform architecture that is responsive to both its context and future inhabitants. This competition uses the historical and typological construct of the dome and calls for its critical re-imagination in the context of Make New History.
Historically, domes have functioned to represent society’s unifying aspirations and environments through their distinct form. The Pantheon served as a gathering space to worship Roman Gods. Domed planetariums simulate the heavens above. Buckminster Fuller’s domes inspired a wave of interest in architecturally enclosed environments. Niemeyer’s domes seek to encourage democratic delegation in political infrastructures. Throughout time, domes have not only evolved and expanded their program, but also their structural tectonic. This unique form has remained relevant over centuries, having been made of concrete, stone, wood, metal, and inflatables. No matter the program or material structure, domes are experiential spaces that inspire emotion by creating radial space both horizontally and vertically through a singular volume.

This year the Chicago Cultural Center will perform as the main venue for the second edition of the Chicago Architecture Biennial. The Center—formerly a Public Library– was designed by Shepley Rutan and Coolidge in 1897. Inside the building, the acclaimed Tiffany Dome was recently restored and brings in millions of visitors a year to not only admire the beautiful structure, but also participate in the many programs held under the dome.
In contrast to the Tiffany dome, less than 10 miles away stands the decaying dome of St. Stephen’s Church, designed by the successor firm of Coolidge & Hodgdon. This year marks the centennial anniversary of the church’s domed cathedral. After its first 80 years serving as a the Tenth Church of Christ Scientist and then as St. Stephen’s Church, the building and it’s dome have been abandoned for the last twenty years. This year’s Burnham Prize competition questions whether St. Stephen’s dome can offer a new history by creatively re-thinking the dome’s contemporaneous state of ruin and dis-use.

CHARGE
On the centennial birthdate of St. Stephen’s Church, the Chicago Architecture Club is seeking proposals for “Under the Dome.”
The decaying dome of St. Stephen’s Church is taken as an opportunity to revisit more broadly the dome’s place in contemporary society and fable its future history. We are calling for speculative proposals and architectural interventions that re-charge the significance and relevance of the dome. Would new strategies of programming or tectonic experimentation provide a new future for the dome? How can the collision of history and new use create the radical emergence of the unimaginable?
