瑞士建筑事务所Markus Schietsch Architekten为苏黎世动物园设计了一座位于康卡沾大象公园旷地中的大象馆。

这座大象馆有一个惊人的木屋顶，其形式自由，与周边森林建立了有机的联系，同时屋顶还能模拟再现森林中复杂的光环境：当阳光穿过屋顶斑驳的天窗，就像穿过丛林层层的树枝。

The characteristic element of the new elephant house is its striking wooden roof which blends into the landscape as a shallow free-form shell-structure. The roof dissolves into a transparent mazelike structure that establishes an organic relationship to the surrounding forest. In the interior the roof unfolds its atmospheric effect: as if through a canopy of trees the sunlight filters through the intricate roof structure generating constantly changing light atmospheres.

大象馆屋顶自由轻巧的木外壳采用了预制三层板，然后在现场进行弯曲和造型处理。整个形体更具结构需求不断变化着，最终成就一个动感，自然，与景观共生的建筑。

The roof is designed as a shallow, free-spanning wooden shell. Prefabricated triple-layer panels were bent on-site into their form and nailed up. The openings were cut out on-site from the massive wooden shell.

The continuously changing façade structure consists of lamellas that seemingly grow up to the edge of the roof as an organically shaped band indicating the loadbearing
areas.

The iconographic shell of the roof together with the dynamic façade form an atmospheric envelope and pictographic “Nature-Construction” concentrating the essence of the design into a symbiosis between architecture and landscape.
