After your brilliant answer yesterday, I would greatly appreciate help with this: "Das Grundstück des studentischen Freizeitzentrums wird durch gegenläufige städtebauliche Raster gekennzeichnet, die die Architekten bewusst überlappen lassen und ihren Baukörper als ein Gebilde inszenieren, das einen zuweilen an einen gestrandeten Wal denken lassen kann. Es ist ein aus formal und räumlich unterschiedlichen Gebäudefragmenten zusammengesetztes und gefaltetes Volumen. Den zentralen Erschliessungskanal gestalteten die Architekten als leicht ondulierenden Strang, der aus den sich in diesem Bereich verdichtenden Bewegungen der Studenten und Studentinnen einen Ort der sozialen Begegnung entstehen lässt. Der Komplex bietet räumlich oft unerwartete Ein- und Durchblicke: So steht eine Besucherin beim Haupteingang des Studentenwohnheims beispielsweise plötzlich vor einer Fenstergruppe, die den Blick auf das grosse Schwimmbad frei gibt, während man bei einem Drink an der Saftbar den Aktivitäten an der Kletterwand zuschauen kann." |

Dear leander1, I'm glad to know that the results of my work useful for you, thank you very much. I'll do my best not to disappoint you. And here is the newest translation: The site of the collegiate recreational centre is characterized by urbanistic grids aligned with opposite directions, which the architects let deliberately overlap; furthermore, they arrange their structure in a shape that sometimes reminds the observer of a stranded whale. It is a folded volume composed of formally and spacially different structural fragments. The architects designed the central access channel as a slightly winded line that forms a place to socialize from this area where the flow of students concentrates. Spacially, the complex holds views and perspectives that are often unexpected. At the dormitory's main entrance, for example, a visitor will suddenly stand before a group of windows opening to the great swimming pool; and it is possible to watch the action at the climbing wall while having a drink at the fruit juice bar. Best regards, Scriptor |
