史蒂芬•霍尔建筑事务所赢得了改造爱尔兰都柏林大学的竞赛，建筑物参考了北爱尔兰的巨人堤道的地质形态。

由建筑师史蒂芬•霍尔（Steven Holl）主持的事务所总部位于纽约，与Diller Scofidio + Renfro事务所、John Ronan Architects事务所、O'Donnell + Tuomey事务所、Libeskind事务所和UNStudio一同选中为都柏林大学校园设计全新的总体规划。

Steven Holl Architects has won a competition to revamp Ireland's largest university, with a proposal featuring buildings that reference the geological forms of the Giant's Causeway.
The New York-based firm, led by architect Steven Holl, was selected ahead of Diller Scofidio + Renfro, John Ronan Architects, O'Donnell + Tuomey, Studio Libeskind and UNStudio to design the new masterplan for the University College Dublin campus.

总体规划的核心是设计建造其创意设计中心，为都柏林大学建立全新的门户。

该建筑的设计参考了位于爱尔兰北部约160英里（约257公里）处的巨人堤道，这里拥有奇特的几何形状，有着超过40000个六角形玄武岩柱。

The masterplan centres around the construction of a new facility, the Centre for Creative Design, intended to form a new gateway for the university.
This building is designed to reference the unusual geometries of the Giant's Causeway, located approximately 160 miles north, which famously features more than 40,000 hexagonal basalt columns.

该建筑拥有两座棱柱形塔楼，其角度均为23度，象征地球的倾斜度。此外，还有一座礼堂，与都柏林大学校园的十二面体水塔的形状相呼应。

其他功能包括增加一条行人通道，这条道路与现有的校园轴线平行，从而形成H形布局。

在此期间，建筑师计划增加七个环形绿地、一座广场、水池、咖啡馆、景观花园，还有保存完好的植被区和休息灰空间。

The building will boast two prismatic towers, both angled at 23 degrees to mirror the earth's tilt. There will also be an auditorium that matches the shape of the dodecahedral water tower that has stood on the UCD campus since 1972.
Other features include the addition of a new pedestrian throughway, which will run parallel with the existing campus spine to create an H-shaped layout.
Around this, the firm plans to add seven new quadrangles of green space, a plaza and a reflective pool. There will also be new cafes, landscaped gardens with "water-retention ponds", preserved trees and sheltered seating areas.

史蒂芬•霍尔认为这个项目“非常重要且鼓舞人心”。

“我们的总体规划和都柏林大学创意设计中心不仅仅具有标志性，它们也反映了都柏林大学校园的历史，回应了场地的细节，形成了场所和空间。”他说。

Holl described it as "a very important and inspiring project".
"Our masterplan and the new UCD Centre for Creative Design are not just iconic objects − they reflect on the history and quality of UCD's campus, responding to the particulars of the site to create place and space," he said.

竞赛由大学校长Andrew J Deeks领导的小组评判，其中包括建筑师David Adjaye和Ann Beha、皇家艺术学院副校长Paul Thompson和Ballymore董事长兼首席执行官Sean Mulryan。

“史蒂芬•霍尔希望将创意设计中心的标志性设计与一些精心策划的总体规划相结合，从而形成校园的中心，并利用创意理念来强化其自然美景。”Deeks说。

“创意设计中心既具标示性，又引人注目，成为了校园地标，让学生和教师拥有场所感。”

The contest was judged by a panel led by university president Andrew J Deeks, which included architects David Adjaye and Ann Beha, Royal College of Art vice-chancellor Paul Thompson and Ballymore chairman and CEO Sean Mulryan.
"Holl's vision is intriguing and striking – combining an iconic design for the Centre for Creative Design with a masterplan distinguished by a few considered, highly intelligent moves that open up the centre of the campus and use creative landscaping to intensify its natural beauty," said Deeks.
"The Centre for Creative Design promises to be an exhilarating presence, announcing UCD from afar, creating a new Dublin landmark, and giving visitors, students and faculty a definite sense of arrival."

史蒂芬•霍尔建筑事务所之前曾为美国众多大学设计过建筑作品，包括弗吉尼亚联邦大学的当代艺术学院、爱荷华大学的视觉艺术大楼和哥伦比亚大学的坎贝尔体育中心。

该事务所还负责苏格兰新格拉斯哥艺术学院的建设。

都柏林大学项目的合作方为：都柏林Kavanagh Tuite Architects工作室、景观公司HarrisonStevens、工程巨头Arup、气候工程人员Transsolar和项目分析人员Brightspot。

Steven Holl Architects has previously worked on numerous university buildings in the USA, including the Institute for Contemporary Art at Virginia Commonwealth University, the Visual Arts Building at the University of Iowa and the Campbell Sports Centre at Columbia University.
The firm was also responsible for the new Glasgow School of Art building in Scotland.
The University College Dublin project will be delivered in collaboration with Dublin studio Kavanagh Tuite Architects, landscape firm HarrisonStevens, engineering giant Arup, climate engineer Transsolar and analysts Brightspot Strategy.
