2016年度项目设计大奖：伦敦Tara艺术剧院/2016 Project Design Award: Tara Art Theatre, London

近期重新开业的英国伦敦Tara艺术剧院，是隶属于英国历史最为悠久、声望斐然的跨文化戏剧公司Tara Arts最新的顶级艺术剧院。由Aedas文化艺术团队设计，该项目于近日荣获今年伦敦建筑大奖“年度项目设计奖”。全新改造的Tara艺术剧院融合国际与地方风格，为英国首家跨文化剧院打造富于灵感的创意空间，成为东西方艺术的桥梁。

The recently reopened Tara Art Theatre in London, UK, is the latest top art theatre belonging to Tara Arts, the oldest and prestigious intercultural theatre company in the UK. Designed by the Aedas culture and art team, the project recently won the "Project Design Award of the Year" at the London Architecture Awards this year. The newly renovated Tara Art Theatre combines international and local styles, creating an inspiring creative space for the first cross-cultural theatre in the UK, and becoming a bridge between Eastern and Western art.

剧院的设计融合东方元素，致敬其在管理和产权方的亚洲渊源，并突显Tara剧院在英国剧院行业独一无二的特质。设计还融入了在印度被视为“生命之树”的菩提树图案，树木下的荫凉也象征着社区的凝聚。这一“Tara之树”围绕于建筑立面，并以英国传统工艺抹塑，巧妙呼应着印度装饰技术。菩提树图案仿佛在邀请观众走进剧院聆听并分享他们的故事，这一独特的外观亦打造出一座生动的城市地标。

The design of the theater integrates oriental elements, paying tribute to its Asian origins in management and property rights, and highlighting the unique characteristics of Tara Theater in the British theater industry. The design also incorporates the Bodhi tree pattern that is regarded as the "tree of life" in India. The shade under the tree also symbolizes the cohesion of the community. This "Tara tree" surrounds the building's facade and is sculpted with traditional British craftsmanship, subtly echoing Indian decorative techniques. The linden tree pattern seems to invite the audience into the theater to listen to and share their stories. This unique appearance also creates a vivid city landmark.

Tara艺术剧院拥有一间设备完备、灵活机动且加倍扩容至百座的剧院正厅、一间全新的隔音排练室和其他辅助设施，来满足当下时兴的表演和观众需求。剧院正厅以高适应度的泥土地板为特色，打造出原生态且富具个性的地面，在伦敦这一时尚之都活灵活现地诠释了亚洲文化。

The Tara Art Theater has a fully equipped, flexible and flexible theater hall that has doubled its capacity to 100 seats, a brand-new soundproof rehearsal room and other auxiliary facilities to meet the current fashionable performances and audience needs. The main hall of the theater is characterized by highly adaptable clay floors, creating an original ecological and unique ground, which vividly interprets Asian culture in the fashion capital of London.

新剧院所用的砖块中有7,500块回收自旧剧院，建筑材料也尽可能就地取材。外立面的“Tara之树”有96%的材料来自回收废料。内部空间自然光照充足通透，宽敞明亮，并装有彩色百叶窗。从高层窗户透过的光线可以为正厅提供日照，这样的设计颇为独到罕见。

Of the bricks used in the new theater, 7,500 are recycled from the old theater, and the building materials are also locally sourced as much as possible. 96% of the material of the "Tara Tree" on the facade comes from recycled waste. The interior space is full of natural light and transparent, spacious and bright, and is equipped with colorful shutters. The light from the high-rise windows can provide sunlight for the main hall, which is quite unique and rare.
