Metals in Construction magazine 2016 Design Challenge
Журнал «Metals in Construction» приглашает архитекторов и проектировщиков принять участие в конкурсе, цель которого – редизайн фасада Метлайф Билдинг в Нью-Йорке. Это здание является одной из визитных карточек города. Сегодня его предлагается реконструировать с применением экологичных энергоэффективных технологий. Проект должен соответствовать задачам программы «Вызов 2030» («The 2030 Challenge»).
Metals in Construction magazine is pleased to invite architects, engineers, students, designers, and others from all over the world to submit their vision for recladding this New York City icon with a resource-conserving, eco-friendly enclosure - one that creates a highly efficient envelope with the lightness and transparency sought by today’s office workforce while preserving and enhancing the aesthetic of its heritage.
Built a half-century ago as the world’s largest corporate structure, the Pan Am Building (now the MetLife Building) at 200 Park Avenue in New York City initially enjoyed little praise in the architectural press. Critics found the massive brutalist structure an assault on Grand Central Terminal and an obstruction to views up and down Park Avenue. Despite this controversial beginning, the building today is firmly in the grip of nostalgia, its location atop a rail hub now the model of urban efficiency and its facade one of the most recognizable in the city. Given this legacy, it is almost understandable that, when a 2001 investigation revealed age-related defects in the facade, the principal objective was to restore it to sound condition. At the time, there was no inclination to alter its widely familiar appearance in order to harness the latest technological advances. But with the call for global energy reduction driving the Architecture 2030 Challenge, a more compelling case for this type of alteration exists today. The goal of the design challenge is to use this well-known Park Avenue landmark to explore the possibilities for such alteration and the potential impact on both energy use and architectural legacy.
