Appreciation towards Studio RAP for providing the following description: 

“新代尔夫特蓝”是历史悠久的荷兰城市代尔夫特的一个先锋项目，由Studio RAP设计并进行3D打印。该项目重新诠释了举世闻名的代尔夫特蓝瓷器的装饰品质和设计语汇。通过融合三维粘土打印、计算设计和手工上釉，“新代尔夫特蓝”期望在 21世纪展现瓷器装饰的全新建筑潜力。

New Delft Blue is a pioneering project in the historic Dutch city Delft, designed and 3D printed by Studio RAP. This project reinterprets the world-famous decorative qualities and design vocabulary of Delft Blue porcelain. By fusing 3D clay printing, computational design, and artisanal glazing, New Delft Blue hopes to unfold a new architectural potential of ceramic ornamentation of the 21st century.

设计
The Design

PoortMeesters住宅区是大规模城市重建项目新代尔夫特（Nieuw Delft）的一部分。街区内部郁郁葱葱的公共庭院被两个巨大的入口拱门所框定。拱门道宽约四米，高约八米，深约十二米，下有一个公共大楼梯。这些大门借鉴了代尔夫特过去作为一座中世纪贸易城市的历史，其拥有众多城门，让行人可以一睹城内的悠闲生活。“新代尔夫特蓝”大门的设计灵感来自传统的代尔夫特蓝瓷盘。几个世纪以来，从模仿中国和日本的东方式设计到现代主义荷兰设计，这些瓷盘的设计语汇发生了巨大变化。然而，一个装饰性、受自然启发的边框与悠闲美丽的场景内容之间的对比，是一直反复出现的特征。因此，“新代尔夫特蓝”的设计就以这种差异为出发点，休闲的场景内容是不断变化的庭院生活，而大门则作为一个由算法设计的自然图案组成的三维边框，将人们从公共空间引向半公共的庭院内部。

The lush communal courtyard of the PoortMeesters residential building block, which is part of the large-scale urban redevelopment Nieuw Delft, is framed by two large entry gates. The gates, roughly four metres wide, eight metres high and twelve metres deep, cover a large public staircase. These gates refer to Delft as a mediaeval trading city with its many city gates and provide passers-by with a glimpse of the idyllic life going on inside. The New Delft Blue gates take their inspiration from traditional Delft Blue porcelain plates. The design vocabulary of these plates has changed radically over the centuries from copying Chinese and Japanese Oriental designs to making contemporary Dutch designs. The differentiation between a decorative, nature inspired frame and idyllic scene, however, has been a recurring trait. As such, this division is the starting point for the New Delft Blue design, where the idyllic scene is the ever-changing courtyard life while the gates stand as a three-dimensional frame with algorithmically designed nature inspired patterns that guide people from the public space to the semi-public courtyard.

创新
The Innovation

覆盖于两个门道上的约3000块独一无二的陶瓷砖通过3D打印技术制作，创造出既丰富又独特的现代陶瓷。在三维图案设计中使用了算法进行设计，并在生成瓷砖的几何形状时考虑了最大悬挂、宽度、高度、深度、收缩率和内部支撑结构这些制造限制。得益于3D打印瓷砖的方式，通过对形状施加变化，可以实现诗意的”图块绘画 “方式。通过使用透明的流动蓝色釉，在瓷砖的凸面部分（山丘）形成浅蓝色，同时在瓷砖的凹面部分（山谷）汇聚成深蓝色釉池，构成了蓝色色调之间的平滑过渡。深蓝色反映了与代尔夫特蓝瓷器和周围运河的联系，并与建筑的土色调砖砌体形成了令人愉悦的对比。

The approximately 3000 unique ceramic tiles that cover the two gates are 3D printed, allowing for the creation of contemporary ceramics that are both rich and unique. Using an algorithmic approach to 3D pattern design, certain manufacturing constraints—maximum overhang, width, height and depth, shrinkage and internal support structure—were taken into account when the geometry of the tiles was generated. Because the tiles were 3D printed, applying variations to their shapes allowed for poetic ways of ‘painting with shapes’. This is done by applying a transparent blue runny glaze that creates on the convex portions of the tiles (the hills) a light blue colour while allowing for deep blue glaze pools in the concave (valley) areas of the tiles, creating smooth transitions between hues of blue. The deep blue colour reflects the connection to Delft Blue porcelain and the surrounding canals, and it provides a pleasing contrast to the earth-toned brickwork of the building.

结合这所有的一切，该项目以一种现代的方式强调了代尔夫特的独特的标识，它以算法设计的自然蓝色图案体现了代尔夫特的历史，并通过使用尖端设计和3D打印技术了代表了代尔夫特作为知识之城的今天。

Combining this all together the project embodies the unique identity of Delft in a contemporary way, by referring to its history with its algorithmically designed nature inspired patterns in blue and referring to Delft of today as the city of knowledge by using cutting-edge design and 3D printing technology.
