Duivenvoorde游客中心

荷蘭70F設計事務所設計出“有生命的”游客中心。

Hof van Duivenvoorde（Duivenvoordes庭院）正面有9個可移動板塊，日出打開，日落關閉。打開的時候，這就是一家寬敞明亮的餐廳，而關閉之后，整個建筑就形成谷倉狀，與周圍建筑融為一體，謙遜低調。

Hof van Duivenvoorde游客中心隸屬于Voorschoten市國家紀念地Duivenvoorde城堡莊園。Duivenvoorde基金會由政府人員管理，負責人委托70F建造一座外觀上像谷倉的建筑，同時保證建筑有很好的透明度，給人以熱情開放的感覺。

70F給出的設計方案使得負責人眼前一亮，可移動設計別具一格，但同時也增加了建造難度。所有天窗制造商和鉸鏈供應商都不敢接受這一挑戰。因此，70FBas ten Brinke決定親自掛帥。

Hof van Duivenvoorde既有餐廳，也有博物館商店。這里空間充裕，人們可以自己在城堡里或莊園周邊隨便逛逛。雖然建筑的面積相對偏小，只有6×30米，但是由于透明度好，感覺上很寬敞。可以從建筑的一面看到另一面。廚房（位于建筑最里面）和衛生間（位于建筑中間）頂部未作處理，可以直接看到屋頂以及整個內部構造。不可移動的窗子漫過屋脊一直延伸到后屋頂上，對面就是紀念園的外墻。

這是一座典型的現代建筑，卻與周邊古城堡這樣的13世紀建筑完美融合。

Dutch architecture studio 70F architecture designed a visitors center that ‘lives’.

Hof van Duivenvoorde (Duivenvoordes Courtyard) has nine movable facade parts that open up the building in the morning and close it at night. When the fa?ade is open the building is a light restaurant, when it’s closed it becomes a modest barn that disappears in its surroundings.

Hof van Duivenvoorde is the visitors center that belongs to Duivenvoorde Castle and Estate, a national monument in the city of Voorschoten. The Duivenvoorde foundation was the comissioner and asked 70F architecture to create a building that would look like a barn but at the same time be transparent and have a welcoming atmosphere.

The solution, with its movable facade parts was a direct hit with the commissioner, but turned out to be difficult to execute. No hatch producer or hinge supplier was up for the challenge. Bas ten Brinke, owner of 70F architecture, therefore decided to do the engineering himself.

Hof van Duivenvoorde inhabits a restaurant, a museum shop and space for the volunteers who give guided tours in the castle and around the estate. The building is relatively small – 6 x 30 meters – but feels spacious because of the high transparency. You can look from one side of the building to the other. The space above the kitchen (in the far end of the building) and the sanitary unit (in the middle) are left open, thus showing the roof and it’s construction in it entirety. Some of the fixed windows continue up and over the roof-ridge into the back roof plane, towards the monumental garden wall.

The building is an example of modern architecture, fitting seamlessly in its 13th century surroundings defined by the castle.
