海边档 中国香港

Harbour Kiosk Hongkong, China

海边档是LAAB为香港星光大道设计的机动建筑,作用为小食亭和机电房,是香港第一个机动的公共建筑。港式小贩街边档「朝桁晚拆」的特色是海边档设计的灵感来源。LAAB以机械重新演绎港式小贩街边档的特色;早上,海边档缓缓打开,像一只张开嘴的蚌;夜里,海边档合上眼睛,安静地听海。除了开关以外,海边档的木条也会上下摆动,一吐一纳,就像海浪潮起潮落,星光一闪一烁。木条背后的49枝机械装置是海边档的骨骼,他们的舒展带动了海边档的呼吸。

Harbor Kiosk is the first kinetic public architecture in Hong Kong that innovatively combines parametric architectural design with bespoke engineering. Located at the Avenue of Stars at Harborfront in Hong Kong, a promenade that celebrates the success of Hong Kong's movie industry, Harbor Kiosk's movement pays tribute to the movie industry. To translate the moving images of cinema into the kinetic movement of architecture, the architects and engineers took inspiration from the local market stalls and designed an automatic system that transforms the "gate" of Harbor Kiosk into "awning" during the day and returns to its compact shape at night. This mechanical movement is powered by a lin ear motion system made of 49 conn ected robotic arms in stalled behind the timber fins. The wave gen erator system also moves the timber fins in waves throughout the day to resonate with the nearby harbor waves in poetic ways.
