由Fernando Jerez与Belen Perez de Juan领导的SMAR建筑事务所，继七年前赢得国际竞赛后，现已完成立陶宛考纳斯的科学岛博物馆建设。这座面积达15,000平方米的博物馆坐落于涅穆纳斯岛上。

SMAR Architecture Studio, directed by Fernando Jerez and Belen Perez de Juan, has completed the Science Island Museum in Kaunas, Lithuania, seven years after winning the international competition. The 15,000-square-meter museum is situated on Nemunas Island.

新建成的科学岛博物馆（立陶宛语为“Mokslo Sala”）旨在成为考纳斯涅穆纳斯岛的核心。我们的设计方案顺应岛屿地形，与自然与城市建立起深层联系。建筑屋顶设有环形出入口，可作为公共舞台与自然座席区，使博物馆有机融入周边景观与公园环境。

The new Science Island Museum (Mokslo Sala) aims to be the heart of Kaunas’ Nemunas Island. Our proposal follows the island’s topography to create a deep connection with nature and the city. The roof will feature circular access points that serve as public stages and natural seating areas, allowing the museum to blend seamlessly into the landscape and the park.

建筑空间由“后区”与“前区”两部分构成。与许多公共建筑不同，这里的“后区”并未被忽视——实验室与办公区同样享有自然采光与公园景致。建筑设计强调与外部环境及气候的持续联系，意在帮助人们理解建筑如何助力对环境科学的整体认知。这种理念超越了传统展陈空间，为参观者提供一种整体性的体验：他们在建筑中行走时，会感知到光线、天气与季节的变化，从而获得一种完整的感官体验，通过建筑亲历自然现象的变幻。

The building comprises two main areas: the “Back of the House” and the “Front of the House.” Unlike many public buildings, the “Back of the House” is not neglected but rather a space where laboratories and offices also receive natural light and views of the park. The design of the building emphasises a continuous connection to the exterior and the climate, to foster an understanding of how the building contributes to a comprehensive understanding of Environmental Sciences. This extends beyond the exhibition spaces, providing a holistic experience for visitors who are aware of the light, weather, and seasonal changes as they navigate through the building. This creates a full phenomenological experience, allowing visitors to witness natural phenomena through the building.

现有的景观形态塑造了创新中心的设计，其屋顶种植本地植被，并设有倾斜且具反光性的上层圆盘。这个独特的地标不仅能将周围景色与自然光反射入室，还能在夜间将人工光线投射至外部，如同一轮“新太阳”照亮考纳斯，象征着科学始终醒着，不断探索新的答案。

The existing landscape shapes the Innovation Centre, with the roof hosting native vegetation and featuring a sloping and reflective upper disk. This distinctive landmark, capable of reflecting the landscape, natural light into the building and artificial light from the building at night, will serve as a new sun for Kaunas, evidence that Science is always awake searching for new answers.
