由马岩松带领的MAD建筑事务所公布“三星堆古蜀文化遗址博物馆及附属设施工程”设计方案“三星堆之睛”。MAD在园区密林绿水之上放置了一组错落分布的梭形木结构建筑群。新建筑群与原有景观构成了新的大地景观，一方面透露了与三星堆文明相仿的远古未来神秘感，另一方面以节制的体量和姿态与自然相连，让园区成为了一处人文与自然、历史与未来相遇的城市及文化公共空间。

MAD Architects, led by Ma Yansong, has unveiled the design of their latest project; “The Eyes of Sanxingdui” for the Sanxingdui Ancient Shu Cultural Heritage Museum. The project sees MAD place a cluster of scattered wooden structures above the dense greens and clear waters of the ancient landscape. The new buildings merge with the existing landscape to form a new environment, which simultaneously celebrates the ancient mysteries of the Sanxingdui civilization and connects with the area’s timeless natural environment through a restrained, humble volume. The result is a park which acts as an urban and cultural public space where humanity and nature, the past and the future, can converge.

位于四川省广汉市西部的三星堆遗址，其文化堆积距今约4500-2800年，是中国西南地区一处分布范围最大、规格最高、延续时间最长、文化内涵最为丰富的古城、古国、古蜀文化遗址。三星堆遗址现已与金沙遗址联合申报世界文化遗产。

未知即神秘。三星堆之所以全球瞩目，更多由于外界对其当时所处的古城、古国，所代表的古蜀文化知之甚少。其中一个较为广泛认同的理解，认为由于蜀国处于中国长江、黄河流域交互地带，所以三星堆所出土的文物一方面呼应且展现了神秘的古蜀本土文化，另一方面体现由于中原人口迁入蜀地而出现的中原文化。现时三星堆博物馆陈列的遗址出土文物主要包括青铜器、玉器、金器、石器、陶器及象牙、海贝等。

此次规划的三星堆博物馆园区位于遗址核心保护区的东北角，总占地面积9万平方米。设计包括进行园区总平规划、新建博物馆及游客接待服务中心、并作园区整体景观规划设计。建成后，博物馆将成为收藏、展示、保护、研究三星堆遗址出土文物的世界级专题性博物馆。

The project site is located in the western area of Guanghan City, Sichuan Province. Filled with unearthed cultural relics dating from approximately 4500-2800 years ago, the site’s archaeology is rooted in the echoes of ancient cities, ancient states, and the ancient Shu culture of southwest China. The Sanxingdui site has jointly applied with the nearby Jinsha site to be recognized as a world cultural heritage site by UNESCO.

As humans, we find intrigue in the unknown and the mysterious. The global fascination with Sanxingdui lies in how little the wider world can comprehend about the ancient city’s geographical location, and the ancient Shu culture it represents. One of the most understood facts about the site is that the Shu Kingdom was located at the intersection of the Yangtze and Yellow River basins in China. Therefore, the artifacts excavated at Sanxingdui offer clues of the mysterious local culture of the ancient Shu, entwined with traces of cultural influence from the Middle Kingdom which emerged when the Chinese population migrating into Shu. At present, the excavated artifacts from the site are displayed in the Sanxingdui Museum, comprising mainly of bronze, jade, gold, stone, pottery, ivory, and sea shells.

The Sanxingdui Museum Park is located at the northeast corner of the site’s core protected region, covering a total area of 90,000 square meters. The design includes urban planning, a new museum and visitor reception service center, and an overall landscape strategy. Upon its completion, this world-class thematic museum will accommodate activities like collection, display, protection and research for the excavated cultural relics from the Sanxingdui site.

大地之睛，古文明之睛，自然之睛

MAD设计的园区新建筑群为一组六座东西向散落的木结构建筑。向新路以东为建筑群首座建筑——游客接待服务中心，建筑面积达5830平方米。再由其向西延展，五处体量不一的建筑构成了博物馆新馆。新馆占地约3万平方米，建筑面积28650平方米。

The Eyes of Earth, The Eyes of Ancient Civilizations, The Eyes of Nature
MAD’s design consists of a cluster of six wooden buildings scattered in an east-west direction. East of Xiangxin Road is the site’s first building; a Visitor Center covering a floor area of 5,830 square meters. Extending westwards, five buildings of various scales form the new museum. In total, the new museum covers an area of about 30,000 square meters, with a construction area of 28,650 square meters.

三星堆遗址出土的多件文物，如青铜纵目面具、青铜大立人像等，形状夸张奇异怪诞。夕阳西下后，六座建筑仿佛变身成为三星堆青铜面具、黄金面罩背后那一双双目光如炬的眼睛，神形合一，让置身其中的人们仿佛游走在历史与未来之间。

The Sanxingdui site laid host to a number of cultural relics, including longitudinal bronze eye masks and large bronze standing figures, many of which adopt exaggerated, strange, ornate shapes. After sunset, the six buildings are enlivened as torch-like eyes behind the bronzeware and golden masks of Sanxingdui, uniting the spirits and forms, allowing people in the museum to wander between history and the future.

白天，建筑木质幕墙呼应了园区密林的自然气质。大跨度的木结构为建筑内部提供了开敞丰富的无柱空间，给予展陈最大限度的布局灵活性。顶部玻璃天窗为展厅连廊提供了自然采光的条件。

During the day, the building’s wooden facade echoes the park’s natural landscape. The timber structure’s large spans allow for open, rich column-free interior spaces inside the building, yielding maximum flexibility for exhibition layouts. Meanwhile, the rooftop skylight provides natural light for the museum.

游人从游客接待服务中心主入口进入，在经过介绍三星堆文化的观影厅后，通过地下走廊来到博物馆建筑新馆的一层入口大厅，由此开启三星堆文化之旅。展馆间通过南向玻璃廊子相互连接，人在连廊中移动，所见窗外景色随着景观变化步移景异。

A journey through the museum begins at the main entrance of the visitors’ center, before proceeding to a viewing hall which offers an introduction into the culture of Sanxingdui. Visitors then progress towards an underground corridor to the museum’s first floor entrance hall. From here, the exhibition halls are connected to each other through a south-facing glass corridor, through which visitors can enjoy the ever-changing landscape as they move through the complex.

人文与自然相遇
When Humanity Meets Nature

MAD将园区定义为人文与自然相遇的地方，因此并没有将新馆建造成大型的构筑物，加上最大程度上尊重及保留了现场原有的树木与水景，将其优化成与新馆建筑和谐成一体的大地景观，创造出馆园合一的氛围。

建筑群北向展厅及其他功能体块连贯而成一片起伏地景，覆盖在绿植屋顶之下。游人可从北边鸭子河畔缓缓走至二层屋顶绿地，欣赏360度园区风貌及优美江景。

MAD’s vision of the park is of a place where humanity meets nature. The new scheme was therefore not designed as a single large structure, but as a scheme which weaves through and interacts with its surrounding landscape. The scheme respects and preserves the site’s natural trees and water features where possible, weaving these natural features into a landscape strategy that remains in harmony with the new pavilion building. The result is an atmosphere of unity between the buildings and the landscape.

The north-facing exhibition hall and other programmatic blocks connect to form an undulating landscape under a green roof. Visitors can walk slowly from the north side of the Duck River to the green roof on the second floor and enjoy a 360-degree view of the rich scenic park and river.

观展完毕步出新馆后，人们可沿保留下来的林荫步道继续参观数字体验馆（现青铜馆）、文物保护修复展示中心、研学馆（现综合馆）等，从不同角度近观体验三星堆文化。

After stepping out of the new museum, people can journey on further, visiting the Digital Experience Hall (currently referred to as the Bronze Pavilion), the Cultural Relics Conservation and Restoration Exhibition Center, and the Study Hall (currently referred to as the Comprehensive Pavilion). This journey, along a preserved boulevard, allows visitors to experience the culture of Sanxingdui from varying angles and perspectives.

三星堆博物馆新馆，应该超越仅是扩容文物的构建物，更应创造并渲染让人的思想和精神释放、飞扬的氛围。文物、场所氛围、自然在此相遇共融，将带动人们感受三星堆文明对当代文明及人类精神的铭刻影响力。

The new Sanxingdui Museum should be more than just a building which exhibits cultural relics; it should create and render an atmosphere where people’s minds and spirits can be released and soar. The intersection of artifacts, atmosphere, and nature will encourage people to experience the Sanxingdui civilization’s inscribed influence on contemporary civilization and the human spirit.
