Brighton College
The School of Science and Sports at Brighton College defies the conventional character of educational buildings – one of endless empty hallways and imposed silence – and instead combines the two departments to create a vibrant building with lively spaces where activities are not necessarily dictated by a school timetable. Observing that processes of learning take place outside as much as inside of the classroom, the design articulates a new idea of educational space bolstering interaction and exchange.
布莱顿学院
教育建筑为什么永远都有一个空旷沉闷的走廊？OMA设计的布莱顿学院科学与体育学院打破了这一传统的教育建筑特征。该设计结合两个学院各自的特点创建了一座充满活力的建筑，并提供了一个活泼的公共空间。在设计过程中，设计师观察到学习不仅仅发生在教室内部，也同样会在教室外部进行，一个充满活力的教育空间可以促进学生间的互动和交流。

Why isolate the department of Science from the department of Sports? Instead, the two are merged into one linear volume, situated at the edge of the playing field. Primary sporting spaces are on level with the field, and the sports hall opens directly onto it. The Science department, which include classrooms, laboratories and a green house, spans over the sporting spaces like a skeletal bridge. The façades are inspired in part by the regular rhythm of the terraced housing opposite the new building. The rooftop provides a sweeping view of the North Sea.
设计师没有将科学学院与体育学院各自独立隔开，取而代之的是将两者合并为一个线性体积，位于运动场的边缘。主要的运动空间与球场齐平，直接面向运动操场。科学学院（包括教室，实验室和温室）跨越了运动空间，就像骨架桥一样。立面的部分灵感来自新建筑对面的梯田形建筑，在屋顶就可将北海景观尽收眼底。

Stimulating social communications between the students was central in the concept: generous and open break-out space outside of the classrooms create room for informal interaction and private studying. Level shifts, grand staircases and glass visually connect the activities taking place in both departments and trigger unexpected exchanges between different disciplines. Individual components of the building are exposed to each other: an indoor running track on the ground floor is visible from upper levels, classrooms have floor to ceiling windows, even fume hoods in the chemistry classrooms are made transparent – enabling people walking down the hallway to witness ongoing experiments.
促进学生之间的社交互动是该项目设计理念的核心：教室外面宽敞而开放的休息空间为非正式互动和私人学习创造了空间。水平移动，大楼梯和玻璃在视觉上将两个学院的活动联系在一起，并引发不同学科之间的意外碰撞。建筑的各个部分都互相开放互通：从高层可以看到底下的室内运行轨道，教室的地板到天花板的窗户都是透明的，甚至化学教室的通风橱也被透明化，使人们可以沿着走廊见证正在进行的实验。

OMA was awarded the project after a competition organized in 2013, when Brighton College needed to expand the Science School in terms of number of labs, and wanted a state-of-the-art sporting facility to foster talent and physical wellbeing. In the original competition brief the Sports Center and Science Department were presented as two separate projects. After a revised brief in 2013, and a second competition phase in 2014, planning approval was acquired in 2015 and construction started in 2017. The project was realized with a total construction budget of £36,700,000.
OMA在2013年举办的比赛中拿下了该项目。当时，布莱顿学院需要扩大科学实验室的实验室数量，并希望拥有最先进的体育设施来培养人才和增强身体健康。在最初的比赛简介中，体育中心和科学部是两个独立的项目。该项目2015年获得了规划批准，并于2017年开始建设，总建设预算为36,700,000英镑。
