2022年恰逢上海临港新片区成立三周年，也是新片区“五个重要”三年行动方案的收官之年。同时在该区域内，以生命科学和人工智能为研究方向的顶尖科学家联合研发中心也正在加快建设步伐。其中，由全球知名的建筑设计事务所ennead主创的临港创新晶体，自正式向公众开放以来，不断发挥其在科创中心建设中的“锚点”和“催化剂”作用，持续为临港新片区的高质量发展赋能增势。

2022 marks the third anniversary and the final year of the development plan for the Lingang Special Area, a world-class pioneering scientific community in Shanghai. Designed by Ennead Architects, the Lingang Science and Technology City “Innovation Crystal” project serves as an anchor and a catalyst for this district and continues to promote additional development in the area since opening to public.

这座总面积86,000平方米，坐落于上海浦东的临港科技城一期项目，旨在深化赋能中国“硅谷”式的区域发展。创新晶体是一个专注于技术研发的跨学科中心，其设计的核心理念意在探讨如何通过建筑模式培育跨学科协作，以及支持新兴产业的高质量发展。该建筑的设计旨在通过核心设施以及主要流通路线上的多功能活动场所，来促进协作和创新，为人们的沟通交流和思想碰撞创造良好环境。此外，为了营造高度连接的工作环境，还搭建了以交流互动为中心的网络，以及功能与技术共享的中央平台。

The 86,000 square meter project is designed as the first phase of the Lingang Science and Technology (S&T) City, an area poised to become the “Silicon Valley” of China. As the model development of the district, the project is an interdisciplinary hub focused on technological advancement, whose central design concept focuses on how architecture can foster interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation as well as support growth for nascent companies. The design of Lingang Science and Technology City “Innovation Crystal” fosters collaboration and innovation through the core facilities as well as multi-story activity nodes set along major circulation routes, creating a robust environment for exchange and productive collisions. The project addresses this issue through the creation of highly-connected work environments that promote interaction, culminate in a network of scattered nodes, and include a central platform of shared program and technology infrastructure.

创新晶体的设计灵感源于水晶的独特构造，其建筑外观大面积分割，形成犹如水晶般的切面，倒映着公园场景及临海美景。极简式的玻璃幕墙为欣赏室外景观提供了绝佳的视野，还可反射一天中不同时间段的天空颜色。

Inspired by the structure of silicon crystals, the design of the exterior envelope is formed by a series of large-scale facets that reflect the inherent beauty of the park-like masterplan and the seaside site. The minimalist glass facets are detailed to offer the best views from the interior and reflect the changing light conditions of the sky and the time of day.

ennead设计合伙人，创新晶体主创设计师托马斯·黄（Thomas Wong）先生表示：“我们在连续的裙楼立面设计上采用玻璃幕墙以及条纹状石材装饰，塑造出经久不衰又稳重大气的视觉效果。裙楼上方的巨大悬挑为进入科技城增添仪式感，也预示着创新晶体将开启未来全球化科创中心建设的新篇章。”

Ennead Partner Thomas J. Wong, the lead designer of “Innovation Crystal”, describes the project as a “combination of glass facets and striated stone façades that wrap the continuous podium, injecting a sense of permanence and solidity. Heroic cantilevers create gateway moments into the project while announcing the district with a dynamic gesture that projects a forward-looking identity for the next global innovation center.”

创新晶体项目的工作区域和创新区域主要分布于多层裙楼当中，而裙楼又与三栋15、16和18层的办公写字楼融为一体。耸立的塔楼不仅在功能上最大限度地拓宽了无障碍视野，还为上海临港打造了一个全新地标。裙楼不仅在空间上塑造了连续性的设计美感，还再次强调了培育跨学科协作的设计核心，为促进交流互动提供共享空间。该项目具体包括普通实验室、研发区域、孵化空间、会议和展览空间以及一个大礼堂。此外，裙楼还设计了两处用于迎宾接待的都市花园，充分展现项目在城市创新中的枢纽作用。此外，都市花园南向临港科技城、北邻大学校区，并由下沉广场相连，进一步彰显了创新晶体在城市中的关键地位。

The intermixing of workspace and innovation areas occurs primarily in the multi-story podium, which is in turn integrated with three office towers of 15, 16, and 18 floors. The towers are positioned on the site to maximize unobstructed views and create faceted icons for the entire district. The podium spatially links the towers together and consolidates a series of shared programs designed for cultivating innovative collaboration and the exchange of ideas. These programs range from common labs, research areas and maker-spaces, to a conferencing and exhibition facility, as well as a large-scale auditorium. The podium forms two urban courtyards that act as arrival spaces and collectors, further reinforcing its function as an innovation hub. Combined with sunken gardens, each of the two courtyards addresses the S&T City towards the south and the adjacent University towards the north, positioning the project as a key connector.

该项目主要用于小型SOHO办公室和孵化器等业务，并通过不同的楼板尺度来增强建筑空间的灵活性。面积达4000平方米的裙楼很适合大型企业办公，还为创造新兴的“生活式”办公环境提供了足够的空间。餐厅位于塔楼与裙楼的交界处，在此人们可以进入屋顶露台并尽情享受和俯瞰美景。塔楼和裙楼内部均设有大小中庭、互连楼梯和常规柱网，最大限度地提高空间自由度和灵活性，以促进人们的交流协作。

Planned to include small office/home office (SOHO) and incubator businesses, the project is designed to offer flexibility by introducing an array of floor plate sizes. At the podium levels a wide variety of work environments including the emerging “live & work” typology can be accommodated, as well as larger headquarter-type spaces in areas as large as 4,000 m2. Canteen facilities are located where the tower intersects the podium, allowing for views and access to a network of landscaped roof terraces that overlook the site. Both tower and podium are designed with large and small atria, interconnecting stairs, and regular column grids to maximize flexibility and collaboration.

“我们希望突破传统办公建筑的格局，充分利用底层裙房互通互联的特性，创造多样的共享和社交空间，提供会议、聚餐、工作、交流、休闲等综合体验。让创新、创意和创作可以突破物理空间的局限，实现自由地交流与碰撞。” ennead建筑设计事务所董事、亚太区总监陈昕昉女士指出： “作为顶尖科学家们科研、交流和社交的重要场所，创新晶体希望通过空间联动，促进跨学科交流和激发科研动力，助力未来数字孪生城的建设、发展与融合。”

“By breaking out of traditional architectural layouts and fully taking advantage of the connecting podium, the design creates a multi-functional sharing and communication space, providing people with meeting, gathering, working, communication and leisure areas all in one mixed-use spatial experience,” said Grace Chen, Principal and Director of Asia Practice at Ennead Architects. “As an important research facility within a world-class pioneering scientist community, the ‘Innovation Crystal’ promotes better interdisciplinary communication and scientific research capability, supporting development and integration of the future digital twin city.”

创新晶体是临港新片区“一城六园”的重要组成部分，同时也是临港科技城总体规划的首发项目。作为临港主体承载区建设的核心功能板块，创新晶体将与创新魔坊、海洋科技广场、海立方科技园、临港科技创业中心等高品质物业载体，共同构建形成“一轴、一带、七片区”的空间发展格局，协同推动科技城社区内部产业链、创新链深度融合，放大顶尖科学家论坛的溢出效应。

The Innovation Crystal is the most important element of the “one city six campus” layout of Lingang Special Area and also the pioneering project of Lingang Science & Technology City. Supporting the core program zoning of Downtown Lingang, the “Innovation Crystal” will help to establish the spatial development layout of “one axis, one lane, seven zones”. In combination with other important recent projects of the area, the Innovation Crystal will support the integration of industries and innovation chains, and further enlarge the growing scientific and technology community.
