Carbuncle Cup 2018: The Shortlist for the UK's Most "Aesthetically Challenged" New Building
由专筑网邢子，李韧编译
有人说负面新闻是最好的宣传。尽管如此，8月下旬会是英国建筑师们最为紧张的时刻，因为“Building Design”的读者选出了英国“最丑陋”的建筑。大众的审美各不相同，对这些“看似丑陋”的设计不应一概而论。然而，本次比赛也展示了人们对于大众建筑美学的不同反应。
Carbuncle Cup的前身为RIBA斯特林奖的“不幸”作品类别，该奖项已有12年的传统，2018年Carbuncle Cup的候选名单展示了英国建筑爱好者们最讨厌的六个项目。此前入围者包括2012年Grimshaw设计的Cutty Sark以及2015年Rafael Viñoly Architects事务所设计的Fenchurch街20号。
下面，您可以看到“Building Design”读者们选择的六座建筑，这些建筑是否都具有“挑战美学”特征呢？
They say that bad publicity is good publicity. Nevertheless, late August is a time for baited breath among UK architects, as the readers of Building Design generate the shortlist for Britain’s "ugliest" building. Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder and judgment towards these unpopular designs shouldn't necessarily be generalized. However, this competition opens up important dialogues about architectural aesthetics and public reception of new projects.
Continuing the 12-year tradition of what has been called the RIBA Stirling Prize’s less fortunate sibling, the shortlist for the 2018 Carbuncle Cup showcases the six projects which British architecture followers love to hate. Previous winners of the prize include the Cutty Sark by Grimshaw in 2012, and Rafael Viñoly Architects' 20 Fenchurch Street in 2015.
Below, you can explore the six buildings chosen by Building Design readers, all in the running for the prize that all architects want to avoid.

香克利酒店，利物浦/Signature Living
位于利物浦市中心的香克利酒店的屋顶扩建在人们眼中存在着意见分歧。这座前千禧大厦的黑色扩建部分看上去有些“怪诞”，但开发商Signature Living声称该建筑“还不完整”，因此评价为时尚早。
Shankly Hotel, Liverpool / Signature Living
Located in central Liverpool, this rooftop extension to the Shankly Hotel has divided opinion among locals. The black extension to the former Millennium House has been dubbed “grotesque," however developers Signature Living claim that the building is “far from complete” and hence was too early to judge.
