OMA and Inside Outside "Honor Generosity" with a Field of Engraved Columns in Dubai

由专筑网飞鱼，邢子编译

OMA建筑事务所与Inside Outside建筑事务所合作设计了迪拜的大型纪念碑——“Ethar – Honoring Generosity”。这一设计由1680根三角形的可循环的铝柱组成，像磁场一样有序排列。柱子上面刻有阿拉伯学者、科学家与思想家的故事。

这一设计是“阿拉伯联合酋长国慈善捐赠的独特文化的纪念，也是迪拜当代景观的一部分。”设计位于朱美拉海滩，这一纪念碑特点符合多样性的文化背景，做为阿拉伯联合酋长国的文化象征，设计要么从城市中分离出来，要么位于城市的中心地带。

OMA and Inside Outside have collaborated on the design of a vast monument in Dubai, titled “Ethar – Honoring Generosity.” The installation consists of a field of 1,680 triangular-shaped recycled aluminum columns arrayed like a magnetic field, engraved with stories from Arabic scholars, scientists, and thinkers.
The installation was designed to celebrate the “unique culture of charitable giving in the United Arab Emirates with a physical installation that is part of the urban landscape of Dubai.” Designed for a site on Jumeirah Beach, the monument’s character can also be adapted for various contexts, whether dispersed throughout the city or appearing in key urban locations as a symbol of Emirati culture.



1680根柱子像磁场一样有序排列，均指向广场中心。对参观者来说，他们第一印象就是场地边界的小柱子，随着柱子逐渐升高，形成了一条条的路径，通向终点，并豁然开朗，形成广场中心。密集的柱子创造了宜人的小气候，遮阳装置更加使纪念广场变为兼具娱乐性质的社会空间。

The 1,680 columns are arrayed like a magnetic field, pointing towards a rectangular plaza at the heart of the installation. As visitors explore the scheme, they first encounter a field of small pillars at the site’s boundary, transforming into a street as the columns grow taller, before ultimately opening up in the public square in the center. A pleasant micro-climate is created by the density of the columns, further enhanced by shading devices that transform the monument into a playful social space.



在夜晚，可以看到灯光的变化，从宽到窄，从冷色到暖色，这也是城市景观设计的一部分。而一排排不锈钢柱子的灯光定义了广场空间，并加强了广场纪念性的气氛。

At night, an illuminated spectacle sees lights gradually shifting from wide to sharp, and cold to warm, while rows of stainless steel lighting fixtures define the plaza, and enhance the gesture of movement in the design.



该项目是通过赞助筹集资金，并用于支持慈善机构，其重点在支持阿联酋的教育。这一项目是由YBK组织（Yasser Bin Khediya先生）发起提倡的，由迪拜Ethar基金会实施。

The project is financed through funds raised by the sponsoring of individual columns and will be used to support charities with a focus on education in the UAE. The scheme was initiated by the YBK Group, Mr. Yasser Bin Khediya, and will be carried out by the Dubai based Ethar Foundation.



在OMA的台北艺术中心展示发布后不久，就传来了该设计的消息。该公司最近也在庆祝阿姆斯特丹的RAI Nhow酒店的封顶。公司创始人雷姆·库哈斯也出现在电子乐队Tempers的专辑中。

News of the scheme comes shortly after OMA released a construction update for their performing arts center in Taipei.
