范德比尔特大道一号美国纽约州纽约市

One Vanderbilt New York, NY, USA

该超高层塔楼的凹槽状陶土层间结构与附近标志性的中央车站瓷砖立面交相呼应。作为定义城市天际线的三座尖塔之一,范德比尔特大道一号塔楼沿用了克莱斯勒大厦和帝国大厦等纽约市著名建筑的分层语言。在建筑底部运用一系列斜角切割组织通往中央车站的视野,露出了范德比尔特大道拐角处车站华丽的屋檐,改变了近一个世纪以来一直被遮挡的视野。为了与邻近、历史悠久的车站建筑色调相呼应,范德比尔特大道一号的设计团队针对大堂天花和层间结构选用了陶土,一种类似于中央车站砖石结构的天然材料。

The supertall tower’s fluted terracotta spandrels echo the tiles of its iconic landmarked neighbor,Grand Central Terminal.Following the layered architectural language of neighboring New York City icons,One Vanderbilt will join the Chrysler Building and Empire State Building as one of three point towers to define the city’s renowned skyline.At its base,a series of angled cuts organize a visual procession to neighboring Grand Central Terminal,revealing the Vanderbilt Avenue corner of the terminal’s magnificent cornice– a view that has been obstructed for nearly a century.
