STGM Head Office

由专筑网Brick，许航编译

来自建筑公司的描述。 STGM新总部办公楼位于魁北克市博波尔区，邻近Estimauville生态社区。大楼有两层，面积1000平方米，设计重点在于环保和建筑的创新。该建筑具有很多特点，如纵向一体化、朝向太阳、轻型木质结构、精心选择的材料和高效的系统，通过这些特点的悉心整合，成功地给用户提供了异乎寻常的舒适，同时产生了低生态足迹。

高性能混凝土墙板与东部雪松结合，创造了既简单又动态的印象，关注实虚之间的关系，赋予建筑一种与时间和时尚不符的优雅风采。从第一份草图来看，设计者追求达到高水平可持续性— 公司优先考虑的核心原则，发挥创造力来实施必要的策略从而达到LEED-NC白金认证水平。以此作为心中的目标，舒适性、简约性和一致性都被选为基本原则。

From the architect. STGM’s new head office is located in the Beauport borough of Quebec City, adjacent to the Estimauville eco-neighbourhood. It is a 1,000 square metre two-storied structure that puts the focus on eco-friendly, architectural innovation. The building succeeds in offering an exceptional level of comfort to its occupants through the mindful integration of a longitudinal form, orientation to the sun, light wood structure, meticulously selected materials and efficient systems, while producing a low ecological footprint.
High performance concrete siding combined with Eastern Cedar creates an impression that is both simple and dynamic, with attention given to the relationship between solids and voids that lend the building an air of elegance that belies both time and fashion. From the first sketches, the designers sought to attain a high level of sustainability– a principle already at the heart of the firm’s priorities, using creativity to implement the strategies necessary to reach LEED-NC Platinum level. With this objective in mind, comfort, simplicity and coherence were selected as founding principles.

环境性能

STGM新办公楼包含两个大型露天工作室、封闭办公室、室内外会议室和休息区。南北展开的纵向形式显得庄重、有当代气息。鉴于获得了最高水平的可持续建筑认证，大楼结合了创新和很多环保特性。

Environmental performance
STGM’s new offices comprise two vast open-area workshops, closed offices, conference rooms, and indoor and outdoor meeting and rest areas. The longitudinal form, developed north-south, is sober and contemporary. The building integrates innovation and a host of eco-friendly features in view of attaining the highest level of sustainable building certification.

其中一些性能减少饮用水的消耗。通过有效的水资源管理，大楼减少了污水处理厂的能源需求。为了减少饮用水的消耗使用了一些策略，例如用低流量水龙头和淋浴头之类的节水配件，还有用雨水冲洗厕所。

通过创新的气动热设计和建筑内部热量恢复，配电网上的需求得到抑制，其宏伟壮志是相比参照建筑减少超过60%的能耗。太阳能墙壁也竖立在大楼的西南立面来预热新鲜空气。通过改变照明、供暖和制冷的使用来适应实际使用和需求，几个控制策略也减缓了能源需求。

A number of features were included to reduce the consumption of drinking water. Through efficient water management, the building decreases the energy requirements of wastewater treatment plants. The strategies employed aimed to reduce the consumption of drinking water through the use of such water-saving accessories as low-flow faucets and shower heads, and rainwater to flush the toilets.
An ambitious reduction in energy consumption of over 60% compared with the reference building was sought through an innovative aerothermal design and recuperation of the building’s internal heat to curb demand on the distribution networks. A solar wall was also erected on the south-west façade of the building to preheat fresh air. Several control strategies also mitigated at-source needs by adapting lighting, heating and cooling use to actual occupation and needs.

项目设计者也专注于材料和资源的使用和管理。例如，大楼室内使用了当地旧房废弃的木材，生态特征很明显。公司旧办公室的家具得到回收并集成到新项目，使用没有挥发性有机化合物，并在整个项目过程中优先采购当地物资。

The project designers also focused on the use and management of materials and resources. Tthe building’s ecological signature, for example, is apparent indoors with the use of wood salvaged from old houses in the area. Furniture from the company’s old offices was salvaged and integrated into the new project, without volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and regional provenance (local sourcing) were prioritized throughout the process.

挑战和解决方案

早在设计第一份草图的时候，地基本身的特点就决定了结构方案的极简主义理念。有限的地面承重能力要求最小的建筑重量，所以使用低生态足迹的轻型韧木框架被证明是最好的解决方案。该结构采用小部分工程木和大部分木材，由小型预制桁架和托梁组成，使较轻的结构成为可能，同时允许桩间跨度宽达14米，来创建一个开放的工作区。木质屋架集成为设计构件，暴露在外层，赋予建筑独特的外观。

Challenges and solutions
As early as the first sketches, the characteristics of the site itself dictated a minimalist approach to the structural concept. The limited bearing capacity of the ground required minimal structural weight, and so the lightweight ductile wood frame, with a low ecological footprint, proved to be the best solution. With a small percentage of engineered wood and a large portion of lumber, the structure consists of prefabricated small-sized trusses and joists enabling a lighter structure while allowing for wide spans (14 metres) between the posts to create an open work area. The wood roof trusses were integrated as a design element, exposed on the first storey, giving the building its distinctive look.

对用户的积极影响

大楼的位置对用户有利。密集的部门位于市中心的郊区，邻近一条繁忙的高速公路，有公共交通和各种公共设施。两个停车场预留给合伙用车成员，电动汽车充电站任凭员工使用。朝南的阳台用作深受青睐的可观景休息区，园林绿化以无需维护的可食用植物为特色。大部分的植物耐寒可食，如覆盆子、百合和唐棣，不需要灌溉，使用户和客户都能使用周围的室外区域。

Positive impacts for users
The building’s location has its benefits for users. The dense sector is located on the outskirts of the downtown core, near a busy highway, with public transportation and a variety of services. Two parking lots are reserved for carpoolers and a charging station for electric cars is at the disposal of employees. The south facing terrace serves as a much appreciated rest area with landscaping featuring maintenance free and eatable plantings. Most of the plants are hardy and eatable, such as raspberry, lilies and serviceberry, don’t require irrigation and enable occupants as well as clients to use the outdoor areas of their environment.

大楼提供了令人兴奋的工作环境。自然采光和户外风景是特别受欣赏的元素。大部分区域由于大楼四周充足的窗户而获得自然采光，在白天充分利用不同的采光机会。五个天井增加正午的采光，不但吸引人，而且根据时刻而变化。两个大的工作区装有配备了光探测器的LED装置，满足室内照明的需要。

The building offers a stimulating work environment. Natural lighting and outdoor views are elements that are particularly appreciated. Most areas have natural lighting due to abundant windows on the four sides of the building, situated to optimize the different lighting opportunities during the day. Five light wells add midday lighting that is both appealing and varied depending on the time of day. LED fixtures, equipped with light detectors in the two large work areas, complete the indoor lighting needs.

项目的关键目标是提供新鲜空气以及控制周围接触的环境，符合舒适和简单的前提。一系列窗口围绕大楼外层有策略地放置。此外，设计了机械系统同时对大楼不同区域有效地制冷和供暖。

Key objectives, in keeping with the premises of comfort and simplicity, were to provide fresh air and to control the immediate environment. A series of windows vents are strategically positioned around the building envelope. In addition, the mechanical systems are designed to efficiently cool and heat the different zones of the building at the same time.
