由马岩松带领的MAD建筑事务所设计的“海口云洞图书馆”近日正式建成并投入使用。这座一体成型的混凝土建筑，被英国《泰晤士报》称为“2021年最期待建成的建筑作品”，它将为海口市民及游客带来更独特的城市公共和文化空间。

MAD Architects, led by Ma Yansong, has announced the opening of the Cloudscape of Haikou on the southern tip of China. A unique urban public and cultural space for citizens and visitors to Haikou, this flowing, sculptural concrete form was named as one of the “most anticipated architecture projects of 2021” by The Times of London.

作为中国南端重要的港口城市，海口曾是海上丝绸之路的重要一站。近年，由于海南国际旅游岛、海南自由贸易港陆续建立，海口的城市经济飞速发展，影响力与日俱增。如何通过提升城市公共空间的独特性和艺术性，为居民带来更具人文气质的生活环境，塑造城市的性格和归属感成为了主要议题。

A prominent port city on the southern tip of China, Haikou was once an important stop on the Maritime Silk Road. With the establishment of the Hainan International Tourism Island and Hainan Free Trade Zone, Haikou’s influence has seen a gradual resurgence in modern times. Meanwhile, Haikou’s government is also enriching the city’s cultural importance, through enhancing the social attributes of the city’s public spaces, and strengthening the connection between the city, humanities, and architecture. The Cloudscape of Haikou is one such culmination of this effort.

“海口云洞图书馆”是大型国际公共艺术项目“海口·海边的驿站”中第一个落成的高标准驿站，该项目是邀请十余位全球顶尖的建筑师、艺术家以及跨学科专家共同打造的16座地标性公共驿站，以“自然·共生·未来”为理念的精品民生工程。

The Cloudscape of Haikou is the first of sixteen coastal pavilions commissioned by the Haikou Tourism and Culture Investment Holding Group to rejuvenate the historic port city, with the aim of improving public space along the coastline. Known as “Haikou, Pavilions by the Seaside,” the initiative invited teams of internationally recognized architects, artists, and interdisciplinary professionals to create sixteen landmark public stations.

项目地处海口湾畔的世纪公园，占地面积4397平方米，建筑面积1380米，包含书馆和市民活动配套：建筑南侧的书馆，内含可以藏书万本的的阅读空间及多功能影音区，向公众免费开放。北侧为向人们提供服务的设施，包括咖啡厅、公共卫生间、无障碍卫生间、淋浴间、母婴室、公共休息区及屋顶花园。

MAD joins this collection of pavilions with a building containing a bookstore and citizen amenities. Situated in Century Park on the shore of Haikou Bay, the project covers an area of 4,397 square meters, with a construction area of 1,380 square meters. To the south side of the pavilion is a library and reading space capable of holding 10,000 books, as well as a multi-functional audio-visual area: free and open for public use. Meanwhile, the building’s northern area features a café, public restrooms, barrier-free restrooms, showers, a nursery room, a public rest area, and a roof garden.

“精神属性是建筑的核心价值；它将渲染一座城市的人文氛围。我们希望这里是人们日常生活中愿意前往并停留的城市空间。建筑、艺术、人文和自然在这里相遇，它们将开启人们的想象之旅，探索、欣赏不同的美带给人们生活的意义。”  ——马岩松

Ma Yansong said, “Spirituality is the core value of architecture. It contributes to the humanistic atmosphere of a city. We want this building to be an urban space that people would like to make part of their daily lives. Architecture, art, humanity, and nature meet here, opening up a journey of visitors’ imaginations to explore and appreciate the meaning that different beauties bring to their lives.”

开卷之初，往往是人们最期待的时刻。“海口云洞图书馆”也是如此，人们从熟悉的城市现实走近建筑，开启一段新的时空之旅。洞型空间的层次和复杂性将空间一层层拉开，也提供给读者一个想象力的失重场。

Beginning a new book is often a moment that readers cherish: a venture into the surreal or unknown, and a gentle removal from everyday reality. The visiting experience of the Cloudscape is similar. The architecture enables people to approach the building removed from our familiar urban reality, and begin a new journey transcending time and space. The complexity of the cave-shaped form deconstructs the space layer by layer, offering readers a weightless field to be inhabited by their imagination.

静处于陆地与海洋之间的建筑，雕塑感极强。自由有机的形态也塑造了多变的室内空间：墙面、楼板、天花，室内，室外模糊了边界。​

The building, quietly located between land and sea, is highly sculptural. The pavilion’s free and organic forms also allow for the creation of unique interior spaces, where walls, floors and ceilings merge in unpredictable ways, and the boundaries between the indoors and outdoors are blurred.

建筑里外的孔洞，像极了大自然中随处可见的“洞”，让建筑与自然的边界逐渐消隐。

The circular openings of the building are reminiscent of holes forged by wildlife or seas, blurring the boundary between architecture and nature.

大小不一的孔洞将自然光线引入室内；同时也实现了自然通风，为身处在常年炎热环境的建筑“降温”。

The varying sizes of the openings allow natural light into the interior, and create a natural ventilation effect to cool the building in Haikou’s year-round warm climate.

人们通过孔洞看天、望海，像是透过时空的通道再去察看身边本已熟悉的世界。建筑里不同氛围、不同尺度的笔触与人的活动触碰，产生生活仪式感。

Through the holes, people observe the sky and sea, as if looking at a familiar world through the passage of time and space. This layering of atmospheres, and collision between people and space, creates a sense of living ritual.

贯通首层与二层的面海阶梯式阅读空间，除了供人阅读外，也是日常举办文化交流活动的场地。

The cascading reading area facing the sea, which connects the first and second floors, is not exclusively for reading, but also a venue for cultural exchange activities.

与主阅读空间隔离的儿童阅读区，天窗、孔洞、壁龛，激发孩子们探索的欲望。

The children’s reading area is isolated from the main reading space, where skylights, holes, and niches stimulate the children’s desire to explore.

可开启的玻璃天窗和超大弧型推拉门带来更好的采光、观海视野和通风效果。

The structural form creates several semi-outdoor spaces and platforms, which also serve as excellent spaces for people to read and gaze at the sea.

结构形态形成的多个半室外空间和平台，也是人们阅读和望海的绝佳空间。为适应当地炎热的气候条件，建筑外围的回廊灰空间采用了悬挑设计，通过物理遮阳降低热辐射，实现建筑节能。

In response to the local hot climate, the gray space of the building’s outer corridor is cantilevered to achieve comfortable temperatures, culminating in a sustainable, energy-saving structure.

MAD希望采取“反材料”的方式，避免有意表现结构、构造，从而消解材料本身固有的文化意义，让空间感受本身成为主体。混凝土是液态材料，流动、柔软多变的结构形态即是它最大的特点。

Through their pavilion, MAD champions an “anti-material” approach, avoiding the intentional expression of structure and construction, thus dissolving the inherent everyday perception of the material, and allowing the spatial feeling itself to become the main subject. Here, concrete is a liquid material, characterized by its flowing, soft, and variable structural form.

建筑为室内外混凝土整体浇筑一次成型。设计深化阶段全部基于数字化模型。屋面和楼板均采用形似“华夫饼”的双层中空肋板形式，既能满足大跨度、大悬挑的受力需求，又能利用结构中空铺设设备管线、填充建筑保温材料，实现简洁完整的室内空间，也是建筑、结构、机电一体化设计的关键。

The interior and exterior of the building are cast in fair-faced concrete to create a single cohesive, flowing form. The roof and floor feature double-layered waffle slabs that support the building’s scale and large cantilever. The design development was conducted and tested using digital models. It was possible to hide all mechanical, electrical, and plumbing elements within the concrete cavity to minimize their appearance and create visual consistency. The smooth, organic aura of the pavilion is only made possible by this key integration of architecture, structure, and mechanical and electrical design.
