Community Center Edegem / Marc Koehler Architects

Edegem木材社区中心强调了当地的社区感，社区中心和图书馆构成了强化村庄社区结构的“缺失环节”，建筑的核心是对于环境的责任意识，两个建筑体量通过交叉层压木材建造而成，与遗址场地连接在一起，强调了19世纪花园的阅读和思考绿洲的功能，这座建筑是一座社区中心，有着灵活的内部空间，满足了不断变化的功能需求，建筑师也为数字时代的图书馆进行了改造，使用者不仅可以在线下进行阅读，还可以拥有数字媒体、各种课程，并且社区团队还可以租用会议室，这里又一间读书咖啡厅和一个楼梯，就如同一个小型展示空间，这座建筑不仅仅用于读书，还可以会面、学习、休息，以及获得灵感。

Edegem’s new timber community center strengthens the local community. A new regional hub for culture and leisure, Edegem Community Center and library forms the ‘Missing Link’ that strengthens the social fabric of the village. Built with environmental responsibility at its core, two pavilion-like volumes, built from cross-laminated timber, seamlessly connect to the heritage site and enhances the 19th-century garden as an oasis for reading and reflection. Designed with and for the community, the building features a flexible interior that adapts to their changing needs. The building reinvents the library for the digital age. By offering spaces not only to read offline, but also for digital media, all kind of courses and for community groups to rent meeting rooms. There’s also a book café and a staircase that acts like a small presentation space. The building is more than a place for books. It’s a place to meet, learn, relax and get inspired.









公共领域的木材建筑，Edegem社区中心是公共领域木材建筑的创新“黄金标准”，比利时政府十分愿意应用替代建造技术、预制结构，以及灵活的建筑形式，这座建筑为木材所设计，这是一种非常健康、甚至可以呼吸的建筑材料，它能够调节湿度、吸收噪音，同时也是一种生物材料，具有良好的碳性能，因为建筑在其结构中能够存储二氧化碳，因此，木材对气候有着正面的影响，除此之外，该项目的其他可持续方面还有绿色屋顶、只能通风系统、太阳能、热泵，同时还应用灰水来冲洗厕所。

Timber building in the public domain. The new community centre in Edegem is the “Gold Standard” of the innovation in timber buildings within the public domain. The Belgian government demonstrates their willingness to adopt alternative building technologies, prefab construction and flexible architecture. The building is designed in timber which is a very healthy building material that "breathes". It regulates humidity, absorbs noise, and insulates. As a bio-based material it is also an infinite resource and has a great embodied carbon performance: the building stores CO2 in its structure. So, rather than building in concrete and steel, timber has a climate positive effect. Other sustainability aspects are the green roofs, the smart ventilation system, the solar power, the heat pump and use of grey water to flush toilets.





建筑的设计能够很好地防止未来的损坏，在这里，书架几乎为视听媒体和混合形式的功能所取代，其中包含了工作、阅读，以及会议空间，通过对社区基础设施的投资，项目的目标是保持Edegem历史中心的宜居特征，这里对于各个年龄段的使用者都十分友好。

The building is designed to be future-proof. Bookshelves can be replaced by audio visual media and hybrid forms of working-, reading- and meeting spaces. Through this investment in community infrastructure, the aim was to maintain the livability and viability of Edegem's historic center as an inclusive place for all ages.



Edegem社区中心也是一个开放的表达方式，这座开放且透明的建筑在太阳能的保护和温度的控制下有着独特的创意，这也是建筑应用了“荷兰气候立面”的原因，因为它利用了被动式太阳能技术，遮阳板位于玻璃套装的空气缝隙里，当光照过于强烈的时候，遮阳板会自动降低从而限制太阳能的增益，空气缝隙之间的热空气可以通过天花板而排出，或者在冬天的时候分散到各个房间，在夏天，多余的热空气则被排放到室外，这样的策略让建筑能够最大限度地提高透明度，增加美感，高高的天花板让空气得以流通，让阅读区域不至于过热。

The Statement for openness. The community centre in Edegem is a statement of openness and is the next installment in the timber revolution in Flanders. An open and transparent building requires original innovative ideas for solar protection and temperature control. This is the reason why the so-called “Dutch Climate Façade” has been applied to this building, as it utilizes passive solar energy. The sunshade is located within the air gap of the glazing suite and when there is excess sunlight, the sunshade automatically lowers to limit the solar gain. The warm air within the air gap is extracted via the ceiling and is distributed to other rooms during the winter months. During the summer, the warm air from the air gap is discharged to the outside which prevents heat gain. This simple solution allows the building to maintain and maximize its transparent aesthetic. The tall ceilings also allow air to flow and prevent overheating in reading areas.







大型窗户让建筑构成开放、可接近，且具有包容性的场所，精致的木框架和立面和精致的细部结合在一起，构成轻盈的纪念感和透明亲切的人性化特征，这是具有欢迎感的建筑，同时表达了对于未来气候的积极性信念，项目团队的非传统合作来源于Edegem社区委员会和“Vlaams Bouwmeester”，在2015年的一次公开沟通之后，Marc Koehler建筑事务所受邀参与这座图书馆的设计。

The large windows ensure the building feels like an open, accessible and inclusive place. The refined timber framework and facade are integrated in refined and minimal corner details that express a light monumental, transparent yet intimate, and human-centered structure. A symbol of a welcoming and supportive local government that believes in a climate positive future. The unconventional collaboration from the project team was defined by the Edegem Community Council and the "Vlaams Bouwmeester". As a result of an open call, Marc Koehler Architect was commissioned in 2015 to design the library of the future.





由于多方支持，这座公共建筑的创新型设计得以实现，在Ghent大学校园、健康科学设施大楼，以及Loker社区中心之后，Edegem社区中心则成为了Marc Koehler建筑事务所设计的第三座木材文化建筑。

Thanks to their support, an innovative design for a public building has been realised. Following on from the Ghent University Campus, Health Sciences Facility Building and the Loker Community Centre, the Community Centre Edegem is the third Timber Cultural Building that Marc Koehler Architects has designed.
