New Eden project video by Grimshaw explores the world's biggest greenhouse

在记录格里姆肖一些重要作品的电影系列的第四个故事片中，我们看到了英国最受欢迎的旅游景点——有着独特外观的伊甸园项目。项目位于康沃尔，它包含一个序列的八个相互联系的穹顶，占地2.2公顷，将潮湿的热带和暖温带地区包裹起来。

In the fourth feature of a film series documenting some of Grimshaw’s most significant work, we take an exclusive look at one of the UK’s most popular visitor attractions — the Eden project.Located in Cornwall, the design comprises a sequence of eight inter-linked geodesic domes, covering 2.2 hectares and encapsulating humid tropic and warm temperate regions.

生物群落的覆盖层是三层枕头状的ETFE薄膜，它有着最大的表面积和最小的周长。“在空间和材料上，设计生物群落是一种高效的训练，”格雷肖姆解释说。“结构上，每个穹顶附着在两层六边形-三角形-六边形的空间框架上。框架的效率取决于几何形状的组成部分：钢管和接头是轻质的，比较小且容易运输。”

The biomes’ cladding panels are triple-layered pillows of ETFE foil with maximum surface area and minimum perimeter detailing. ‘Designing the biomes was an exercise in efficiency, both of space and material,’explains Grimshaw. ‘Structurally, each dome is a hex-tri-hex space frame reliant on two layers. The efficiency of the frame relies on the components of the geometric shapes: steel tubes and joints that are light, relatively small and easily transportable.’

巨大、轻质、跨度清晰的结构位于之前的采石场内，部分灵感来源于Buckminster Fuller的网格穹顶设计。生物群落在第一年开放时接纳了约两百万的游客，这使得伦敦之外的伊甸园项目已经成为了英国的第二大旅游胜地。

Set within a former quarry, the enormous, yet lightweight, clear-span structures were partially inspired by Buckminster Fuller’s geodesic designs. The biomes received almost two million visitors in their first year of opening, with the Eden project now the UK’s second most visited tourist destination outside London.
