Studio Mumbai presents MPavilion 2016 built using seven kilometres of bamboo

Studio Mumbai创始人Bijoy Jain公布了他在墨尔本完成的“M画廊”设计——这是一个由竹子和木材建造的方形结构，原计划并没有使用牛粪作为建造材料。

这个印度建筑师使用了7公里的竹子，50吨石头和26公里的绳子打造了今年的“M画廊”——这可以算是澳大利亚的“伦敦蛇形画廊”设计。

Studio Mumbai founder Bijoy Jain has unveiled his completed MPavilion in Melbourne – a square structure built from bamboo and wood, but not the cow dung originally planned.
The Indian architect used seven kilometres of bamboo, 50 tonnes of stone and 26 kilometres of rope to create this year's MPavilion, an annual commission billed as Australia's answer to London's Serpentine Pavilion.

Jain原本打算用karvi板材，一种由牛粪和泥土混合制成的面板材料。但是这种材料在印度应用得比较多，Mumbai工作室经过了多次尝试，发现这种材料需要进行长时间的干燥才能应对墨尔本的天气情况。

最终完成的这座16.8平方米的构筑物采用了复杂的竹结构，而且使用了近5000个木栓进行连接。

Jain had also planned to use karvi panels, which are made by mixing cow dung and earth. But this material – in use in India, and tested on several prototypes built in Mumbai – would have taken too long to dry in the Melbourne climate.
The completed 16.8-square-metre structure features an intricate bamboo framework pinned together with approximately 5,000 wooden pegs.

画廊的顶盖是由Karvi木棒制成的，屋盖在其四角都向下延伸形成了戏剧性的几个点。地板则由墨尔本向西300公里的仙女港采石场运来的青石板构成。

建筑结构中还包含了一个12米高的“tazia”，这是印度传统仪式建筑中常见的一种装饰性塔结构。它原本安置于屋顶顶部，但现在却设置在画廊的一边。

取而代之的是现有屋顶中间的一个洞口，Jain将它视为“连接土地与天空的桥梁”。洞口下部是一个金色的井，它象征着水源对人类社会的重要性。

Its awning-style roof canopy is made from Karvi sticks, which extend down at the corners to create dramatic points, while the flooring is bluestone, sourced from a quarry in Port Fairy – about 300 kilometres west of Melbourne.
The structure also includes a 12-metre-high "tazia" – a type of decorative tower that features in traditional Indian ceremonies. But while this was originally intended to crown the roof, it currently stands alongside the pavilion.
Instead, there is a hole at the centre of the roof that Jain sees as "connecting earth to sky". Beneath it, a golden well is intended to symbolise the importance of water to communities.

M画廊如今已经在墨尔本维多利亚皇后公园开放。在接下来的四个月里，它将涵盖400人以上的讲座、研讨会、表演和装置展示等活动。

组织者还不能确定这个画廊是否能达到其设计的最初目标——成为澳大利亚有史以来建造的最大的竹结构建筑。

MPavilion opened today in Melbourne's Queen Victoria Gardens. It will be used to host a programme of over 400 talks, workshops, performances and installations over the next four months.
The organisers are yet to confirm whether the pavilion achieves its original goal of becoming the largest bamboo structure ever built in Australia.

“M画廊是一个可以为墨尔本市民提供集会、讨论、思考和反思的场所，”Jain说。

“我的目标不仅仅是打造一座新建筑，也希望通过选择恰当的材料，可以捕捉到场地原本的精神，反映周围的自然环境，并和当地手工艺者一起分享设计和建筑的理念。”

"MPavilion is a space for the people of Melbourne to gather, talk, think and to reflect," said Jain.
"My objective has not just been to create a new building but to capture the spirit of the place by choosing the right materials, respecting the surrounding nature and working collaboratively with local craftspeople to share design and construction ideas."

该项目是由Naomi Milgrom基金会发起的，该组织是由著名的商人慈善家Naomi Milgrom成立的。

Milgrom促成了这一系列项目的成立，而且她的基金会承诺支持第一届的四个场馆的建造。她选择Jain来设计第三座画廊是因为她被他对于手工艺、可持续和社会的执着所打动。

The project is sponsored by the Naomi Milgrom Foundation, an organisation set up by businesswoman and philanthropist Naomi Milgrom.
Milgrom founded the programme, so her foundation pledged to fund the first four pavilions. She chose Jain for the third edition because of his "deep concern for craft, sustainability and community".

她将最后的设计成果描述为“一个平静的，可以激发墨尔本市民深思的场所”。

“M画廊就像创意工厂社区的乌托邦空间，它通过促进设计激辩和文化交流，持续挑战着我们看待和参与这个世界的方式，”她说。

She described the final result as "a calming and thoughtful space which will inspire the people of Melbourne".
"As a utopian space for the creative industry and community, MPavilion continues to challenge the way we see and engage with the world by encouraging design debate and cultural exchange," she said.

Jain是自2014年该项目开展以来第三个建造M画廊的建筑师，之前是英国建筑师Amanda Levete设计的由树冠启发的装置设计以及澳大利亚建筑师Sean Godsell设计的折叠构筑物。

这座画廊将一直开放到2016年8月18日。晚上，它将被一个定制的照明装置点亮，同时还伴有艺术家Geoff Nees 和 J David Franzke的音乐。

Jain is the third architect to build an MPavilion since the programme launched in 2014, following the tree-canopy-inspired installation by British architect Amanda Levete and the folding structure by Australian architect Sean Godsell.
The pavilion will be open until 18 February 2016. By night, it will be illuminated by a bespoke lighting installation, which will be accompanied by a soundscape by artists Geoff Nees and J David Franzke.
