McDonald, Rotterdam by Mei architects and planners

与城市的链接
Connection with the city

三面玻璃外墙与透明的大堂售卖空间让这个街角的独立建筑物成为一个开放的公共建筑，户外露台与公共家具更强调了这一属性。

The new building volume has been carefully detailed and articulated by Mei to open up views of the monumental post office behind it. As a result, the pavilion has the most compact possible core, with glazed façades all around. A fully transparent lobby, with entrances on three sides, makes it seem as though the public space flows through the building.

To strengthen the connection between the pavilion and its surroundings, the outdoor terrace will feature the same furniture found in other public spaces in the city of Rotterdam.

夺目的建筑–不分昼夜
A shining pavilion — day and by night

在白天，透明的玻璃邀请人们进入商店，夜晚，灯光从中照射到外面，吸引人群。建筑上没有用到玻璃的外壁面采用了金色的穿孔铝板，这层宛若面纱的表皮具有不同程度的穿孔率，形成当地人群的画像，提高参与感与社区荣誉感。

Like the historical buildings in the area, the pavilion features a richly articulated façade, carried out in one single material: gold anodized aluminum. This warm and elegant-looking material is vandal-proof and enduring at the same time.
As McDonald’s is open day and night (24/7), its appearance after dark is important. By day the building is inviting to shoppers, while in the evening it glows to attract the nightlife crowd. The skin is perforated with heart-shaped openings to form a ‘veil’ around the glazed building through which illumination shines. This skin is continued in the interior walls and ceilings. With the application of various degrees of perforation, the façade depicts a crowd of people on Coolsingel. After all, the new McDonald’s is built for the people of Rotterdam, who now have yet another reason to be proud of their city.

享受城市景色
View on Coolsingel

人们通过一层开放的大厅和酷炫的螺旋楼梯到达二层，这里的座位区通过大面积玻璃开窗享受城市全景。

Counter and kitchen are located on the ground floor. A one piece steel spiral staircase leads from the lobby to the seating area on the first floor. From here the visitors have a beautiful panorama view overlooking Coolsingel.

灯光设计
Integrated power boxes

建筑的照明设计不仅保证了其所在范围的安全，也因为精良的设计与建筑完美介个。

The various power boxes for utilities and traffic regulation systems, always an eyesore on the street, are integrated into the building. Moreover, the incorporation of illumination into the façade will enhance safety on the street. Technical installations are integrated within the roof, which is designed as a fifth façade.
