非凡的旅行|Voyages extraordinaires

建筑在哪里就可以带你去哪里？设计师相信通过将惰性结构运用在传输上，就能让建筑满足人们探索的欲望，改变人们的感知，甚至颠覆人们的期望，并了解其他现实的存在。探索的欲望即是对进步的渴望，不仅仅是到另一个地方，更是创造新的可能性。整个设计将带观者离开这个现实的界限，发现一个更令人兴奋的未来，那么要怎么到达呢？

Where can architecture take you? We believe that an inert structure can be transporting: architecture can feed the desire to discover, it can alter your perception, upend your expectations, and open you to the existence of other realities. The desire to discover is equally the desire for progress: not just another place, but new possibilities.
We examine the thresholds of departure as windows onto a more exciting future. How do we get there?

寻找我们的宇宙|Seeking other universes

一段旅程由此开始了，在某处存在一个令人难以置信的探索空间，甚至可以在自家的后院。如同在晴朗的夜晚看到月亮一样，人们可以观察月亮的表面，思考着陨石坑中存在生命吗？设计师通过现代科技再现这19世纪的天体浪漫，与儒勒凡尔纳（Jules Verne）所描绘的未知的自然世界和魅力的远方相呼应。在他的书中，那些通往地球中心、海洋深处和月球表面的路线，只有通过人们的努力发现才能最终找到。在他的《奇异的旅行》一书中，凡尔纳以他喜爱的旅行方式为我们打开其他宇宙的大门，他将尼莫船长海底的船描绘为带有丰富内饰的战车，内部配备了风琴、沙龙和餐厅。正是因为儒勒·凡尔纳（Jules Verne）所写的儿童和成人的原始科幻小说，造就了我们今天的实践。作家雷·布拉德伯里（Ray Bradbury）曾写道：“我们都是儒勒凡尔纳笔下的这样或那样的孩子们。” 在他斯特拉斯堡的Marc住宅中的《海底两万里》真实地反映了这一点。

A journey begins at this point of recognition: that there is an elsewhere, some incredible place to explore, even in your own backyard. Like seeing the moon on a clear night, you can start to identify its surface, craters, or possible depths. Is there life up there?Like the 19th century romance with celestial bodies at the precipice of modern technology, we echo Jules Verne’s enchantment with the natural world and its furthest reaches. Across his bibliography, he describes the routes to the center of the earth, the depths of the sea, and the surface of the moon in a way that is only possible through the efforts of discovery. Across the books that comprise his Voyages Extraordinaires, Verne opens portals to other universes, but he also delights in the means of travelingthere. The ship that takes Captain Nemo to the bottom of the sea is described as both a tactical vehicle and a lush interior, outfitted with an organ, salon, and a formal dining room. The proto-science-fiction that Jules Verne wrote into the fantasies of children and adults shapes our practice today.“We are all, in one way or another, the children of Jules Verne,” writes the author Ray Bradbury. A first edition of Vingt mille lieues sous les mers on the shelf of Marc’s family home in Strasbourg certainly attests to that.

伟大的开端|From great distances

设计师在苏州构建起了Boolean Operator，他们精心设计出了这一“移动”结构。Boolean Operator装置实际是一个大型展厅，也是为中国苏州金鸡湖双年展活动所安设的。整个设计超越了周围的环境，同时又嵌入其中。通常，人们会感兴趣这个空间，从而开始令人惊喜的探险。

That’s how we found ourselves in Suzhou, delivering a structure that’s carefully engineered to “move” you. Boolean Operator is a large scale pavilion installed for the event of the Jinji Lake Biennial in Suzhou, China, where it transcends the surrounding environment, even as it remains embedded in it. Typically, we argue for the contextual; here were interested in a surprising point of departure.

运输体验|A transporting experience

就像凡尔纳书中的Nautilus是以早期法国潜艇为模型，设计师也运用超薄的壳结构打造了一艘运输船，利用工程将一个世界到另一个世界量化开来，对于凡尔纳而言，它心中的时间超前。Nautilus被伪装成一种海洋生物，同时成为一个引人注目的栖息地。Nautilus由尼莫船长驾驶巡航在神秘岛和海底中，文中它被描述为“巨大的铁板圆筒”（l’énormecyclindredetôle），将探险者带入未知的领域，尼莫船长曾详细的阐述了它的形状：“整个潜艇足够的长，向尾部逐渐变细，这样的造型很方便水流过，同时对船舶的运动没有任何障碍。”

Like Verne’s Nautilus, a ship modeled on an early French submarine, our ultra-thin shell structure is a transporting vessel. The vector of translation from one world to another is highly engineered, and for Verne, ahead of its time. Disguised as a kind of sea creature in steel sheet metal, the Nautilus becomes a conspicuous part of the habitat it navigates.The Nautilus, piloted by Captain Nemo in The Mysterious Island and on his journey to the bottom of the sea, is described in the text as an “enormous cylinder of sheet iron,” (l’énorme cylindre de tôle) that carries its explorers into unknown territories. Captain Nemo elaborates on its form: “its lines are sufficiently long and their tapering gradual enough, so that the displaced water easily slips past and poses no obstacle to the ship’s movements.”

探索装置|A device for discovery

舷窗如同水族馆一样成为了两个生态系统之间的大门。设计师创造的Nautilus停靠在城市的湖岸边，它具有一个奇特而丰富的内部空间。整体作品以一个不可思议的薄铝工艺创造，形成一种外星人的造型。进入内部的航海者可能会突然看到一个似乎很遥远的广场。外壳的厚度的变化在两个宇宙之间的交接处变得明显。

A porthole becomes an aquarium at the threshold between two ecosystems. Beached on the urban shore of Suzhou, our Nautilus frames views onto a strange interior, teeming with activity. From inside an alien form, a craft in impossibly thin aluminum, voyagers see out onto a plaza that seems far away all of a sudden—in another dimension, perhaps.At this opening between two universes, the thinness of the enclosure becomes apparent.

内部的新世界|Inside a new world

这个结构内部是一个不透明的空间，仅利用2毫米的多孔外壳与城市隔开。因此整个结构不可能延伸到很深的地方，其弯曲的表面形成的精细分辨率形成了一种不明确的结构范围。人们必须四处走动才能感受到空间中所包含的一切。阳光下，结构中各个细节若隐若现。连续的表面在柱子网络中生长，这些柱子又可以剥开，形成封闭的壳体。复杂的结构外皮的决定了分支、开口、部件以及连接的密度。体验者不得不让自己的眼睛适应这样的分辨率。整个场景以一种压倒性和敬畏感，迫使人们靠近、深入，并通过这个无边的空间。这个双曲面结构不会产生规则的阴影，也不会给予游览者提供过多的信息来感知它的尺度或深度。由此理解空间的唯一方法就成了通过它，蜿蜒的小径不仅仅是一种设计，更是由一道光线所产生的暗示，绘制在这探索的欲望的地图上。

▼连续的表面在柱子网络中生长，这些柱子又可以剥开，形成封闭的壳体，a continuous surface grows from a network of columns that peel open into the enclosing shell

The interior of the pavilion reveals an unreal space only separated from the city by a porous 2mm shell. It stretches impossibly into great depth, and the fine resolution of its curving surface render its extents indeterminate. You have to wander through to feel out all that the space contains.Suffuse in light, the details come into and out of focus. A continuous surface grows from a network of columns that peel open into the enclosing shell. The intricacy of the skin asserts a density: of limbs, of openings, of parts and their connections. You have to let your eyes adjust to the resolution of the experience. Unfocusing your gaze again, the whole scene overwhelms, strikes awe, compels you to move closer, deeper, and through an edgeless space. The doubly-curved surfaces cast no regular shadows, giving little information to the eye to perceive its scale or depth. The only way to understand the space is to move through it. Your winding path isn’t designed, but implied by a swirl of light, plotted on a map of your own desires.

到地球的中心去|To the center of the earth

球状包膜中的开口具有引力的魔力，它们将人们拉入未知的世界。它可能是一个漩涡、一个月亮门、一个兔子洞，甚至一些不成文的仙境，人们小心翼翼地接近它，或者也如同现代探险家的信心。

Openings in the bulbous envelope also have a gravitational quality, they pull you into unknown depths. Maybe it’s a vortex, a moon door, a rabbit hole to some unwritten wonderland; you approach the void cautiously, or perhaps with the confidence of some modern-day explorer.

神秘岛|On a mysterious island

在距离现代苏州市中心的不远的地方是另一个神秘的空间，它位于金鸡湖的西侧。这个沉思花园位于市中心的绿色小岛上，在这里，建筑和景观设计如同诗歌般存在，历史王朝遗留的艺术和天然岩层是联合国教科文组织颁布的世界遗产。经过一个世纪的王朝统治，这座花园仿佛是中国传统山水画中的一个场景，它将艺术、工艺和文化历史都融入进了这宁静的户外空间中。

Not far from the contemporary glimmer of the Suzhou Center is another mysterious site that warrants a voyage west across Jinji Lake. The lingering gardens can be found on an island of greenery in the middle of the city. There, a poetry between architecture and landscape design, dynastic artistry and natural rock formations, stands protected as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Constructed over a century of dynastic rule, as if a scene in a traditional Chinese landscape painting, the gardens merge histories of art, craftsmanship, and culture into a serene outdoor environment.

返回陆地|Back around again

THEVERYMANY将装置放在苏州梦幻的广场上，不同于一般的城市环境，该作品给人们带来了一次独特的艺术体验。在苏州市中心，它成为了一个引人注目的空间，等待着人们去探索发现。随着它被本地人和游客所熟知和标记，这个作品通过一次又一次地运送人们，创造了一个独特的追寻体验。

THEVERYMANY emerges on a hazy plaza in Suzhou with an art experience so unlike the city surrounds. A surprising interior to be found among the usual business of the Suzhou Center, it must be entered to be discovered. But as it becomes known and mapped by explorers—local and visiting—it becomes a site to pursue, to seek out, and to transport you over and over again.
